THE PAST FEW WEEKS

Might as well give a quick update while I have a few minutes to spare this morning. I apologize for those of you who have been hoping I would post something more than nothing.

Moved mom into a 2bdrm rental place on the 18th of March. Our friends were so generous to allow us to stay with them and share all they had until we were able to find the right place. Mom's last two days of radiation was delayed due to continual pain she was having in her chest as a result of the side effects of treatment. She was admitted to the hospital for two and half days until she was rehydrated and able to swallow again without having severe burning pains in her esophagus.

Wednesday Mom had another follow up appt with Oncologist. They're suggesting a different kind of chemo treatment from now until the end of her days. Saying that she'll probably only have a 3 out of 10 chance of making it through. Other option is so many weeks to live without any treatment at all. We're going with neither of those options. She's going to take about a month off and expect the Lord to intervene.
