Asking for prayers once again.

April 15th, 2008 at 04:03 am

My mom is facing diagnosis on 4 serious health issues this week. I won't go into details but three of them are very serious. (breast and skin cancer, and another blockage to her heart) She learned about 2 of them the day we left on vacation(the doc called as we were walking out the door to the airport...and scheduled the second exams to confirm his suspicions) Symptoms started on the other two while we were gone. All I can do is be there for her and try to keep her spirits up. We should know by next week just what she is up against. Today was a bad day for her..she is missing my dad and is very scared.

I feel like I just climbed back on a very dark rollercoaster without a seatbelt. I can only imagine how she is feeling.

I am at a loss of what to do except be there when she wants to talk and try to keep her from worrying. (um, yeah)

Sigh.

Can't think of anything financial that is even registering tonight...

    {{HUG}} My thoughts are with you and your mother. That's a lot to take all at once.

    One diagnosis is pretty tough--your mom has been clobbered! And so have you. This must be a very hard time for you both trying to take this all in. Prayers and thoughts go out to you both!

    You have prayers and kind thoughts from me. Every time my mother's cancer returned was a sock in the stomach. Know that we're thinking of you both.

    You already are a big help to Nana. Taking her to lunch, spending time with her, and just listening. You are doing the right things and all you can do is pray and give it over to the big guy. Thinking of you! xoxoxo
