Mom is in Hospital

Posted by: wroberson on May 18, 01:38

Last month we went shopping and she was moving along just fine.  On May 1st she thought she had a dr. appointment.  She did not.  She had a hard time sitting up.  She couldn't get in and out of the car.  She could not walk.  A week later I come home from shopping and mom's laying on the floor.  She had fallen out of her chair.  We get her to the hospital and she has a brain tumor.  It was removed the next day.  This week it's been musical hospitals as complications stopped by to bleed for a while.

She looks a lot better and can get in and out of the hospital bed.  Chair.  She's in rehab learning to walk and stuff.  I've been around here for 18 months helping her out and I knew on the 1st, there was something wrong.

My sister says she doesn't want to play the blame game.  We are not sure if she is going to do the radiation and chemo again.  What happened is that during the "remission", the cancer spread to her brain.  I did the math last year and there was a 15% chance of a 5 year survival.  The new numbers are 2 months without the treatments and 12 months with the radiation and chemo.  It's her choice and my sister isn't pushing her into it like she did last year.

Thanks for the concerns and well wishes.  Sorry for dumping this here.
No worries.  I've been preparing myself for the inevitable over a year.
