Still
Another Chance
I should have done this months
ago, but have been a bit stressed.
On 8 May
2017, my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Then on 12 May 2017, we were
told that it is incurable stage four. She IS
getting chemotherapy and had her second treatment on 7 July 2017.
They thought since it was her second visit that they could give it a
little faster and almost killed her.
Last night,
10 July 2017, she went into the hospital, probably from a reaction to
the fast chemo treatment.
On 14 July
2017, after talking with several different medical professions,
family and friends, my mom has decided to discontinue chemotherapy.
Suffering for more two-thirds of the time is not how she wants to
live and while I don't want to lose my mom, I don't like seeing her
suffer like she has. I don't know how long she may have, but I do
know that I have faith in God and believe that if it is His will, he
can cure her.
As of 26 July 2017, she is
starting to not feel the effects of the Chemo, which is good, her
birthday is the 27th. Wouldn’t it be great if God
decided to give her a birthday present and heal her? It CAN happen.
Originally,
the Physician’s Assistant (PA) that was looking after me
scheduled my home visits to be on Tuesday, and then she saw me on
Fridays. Then, after my 40th visit, she had me see Dr. Le.
Dr. Le said that I was draining too much and she ordered my home
visits to be on Mondays and Wednesdays and I would then see the PA on
Fridays. My first day seeing the PA again, she changed it back to
Tuesdays only. The drainage was eating my skin and I was in so much
pain on Monday that I barely ate and couldn’t sleep. On 25 July
2017, I was sent to the ER by my Home Health Care nurse because my
right leg was in so much pain and the smell was nauseating.
As for the
next chapter, it IS
in the works, but I don't know when it will be completed. My mom is
more important to me than the story.
