DYK my mom is getting more mobile, she has a walker now. The therapist is working w/her since she has some numbness in her hand from all the IVs she had while in the hospital last month. Nurse thinks one of the IVs may have hit a nerve in her left hand since only her thumb is affected.
DYK she got her chemo prescriptions filled - since she is doing the combo w/radiation she is getting chemo pills (vs intravenous drip) that she'll take in the AM she has radiation. She got yet another CT scan & the oncologist did say her cancer seems stable & hasn't appeared to have spread.

Ang, the girls look so much older! they are so beautiful!
I will continue to keep your parents and your whole family in my prayers, I'm sure none of this is easy for any of you.
I've just got to whine for a few minutes if that's ok....
I feel awful. I've been in bed since Saturday night, pretty much the whole time except when I was at the doctor this morning. My body hurts from laying down all the time, and I can't sleep much.
Dh wasn't being very helpful or sympathetic the first night. I had a mini "I want my mommy" moment. I know some people don't have their moms around anymore, and I'm lucky that I do. But I'm so frustrated with the whole situation. Nothing seems to be helping her. She still barely gets out of bed most days. She won't really talk to anyone. The doctor says she is making progress because she talks to him, but really there hasn't been any other change in 4 months.
Normally I would have called her at 10 at night to tell her I was sick, and she would make me feel better. This time, I don't even know if she knows I'm sick, I haven't talked to her in a few days, and I don't know if my dad has mentioned it to her.
Thanks for letting me get that out. Dh doesn't want to hear it (about my mom, he just doesn't understand why my dad doesn't make her get up and out of the house, and we argue every time we talk about it), and I haven't had a girls' night out in a while. That is a whole other story, I had a little emotional outburst a couple of weeks ago too because I had to cancel plans with a friend (due to a misunderstanding with dh, long story), and I really need one!
Love your new siggy!The girls look so grown up.Gabby is jealous of Rach's top,they can not wear tops like that too school,without a shrug.
I will keep your mom in my thoughts and prayers this week as she begins her chemo and radiation.Will she be getting radiation everyday?How often does she get chemo?I hope she has an easytime of it.I also hope your dad continus to be less difficult.(((hugs))))
