Hey it's Lauren here. It's been a while since I wrote on here, but that's because mom was doing a great job taking care of the blog herself, wouldn't you say? Today she will be dictating.... but first I will tell you what's going on.
About 48 hours ago we showed up at Eastside Medical Center for the weekly visit to the oncologist for chemo. After seeing the doctor, he wanted to admit her immediately to get an MRI and CT scan to make sure the cancer had not spread to certain other areas, and after running these tests it was not found in those areas. We are still waiting for a few more test results and will find out tomorrow (most likely?).
As for today, mom just got some of the fluid drained that was around her lungs to help her breathe better, and now she's resting. We're waiting on her sisters to come deliver some Puerto Rican delicacies and then maybe we'll dance around to some salsa music for the rest of the day. Probably not, the room is entirely too small.
Mom wants to thank everyone who has been praying for all of us. For reaching out to Terry and me and Tom. For the letters, cards, visits, flowers and encouragement.
I'm thankful for all of you too and I would just ask for you all to continue praying. Psalm 91 is still our prayer through all of this.
And bring us some coffee cause it's terrible here.
Thinking of you and your mom. Just wanted you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Love you cutie!!!
