It has been a roller coaster of a week. Spent a wonderful Easter Sunday with the family but by the time the sun was setting, Mom was tired and ready for bed. And then it started......
Monday she was back to batteling a fever and was also sick. The naussea had set in and she was staying cold. Come to find out after I had a conversation with Patty L (cancer survivor that had chemo) she said to tell mom that she would have cold flashes instead of hot flashed. There yah go, that's the reason mom was staying cold.
Everyday I ask mom, "how are you feeling today" and the answer seems to always be..... Better than Monday. Honestly, mom does look pretty good. She is one tuff cookie right now, just hoping she can continue to have the strength needed to fight this horrible 6 letter word (CANCER).
Along with mom fighting this, I have a very dear friends also fighting- Andrea. She is home recovering from her surgery waiting on the date/times of her next steps (port, chemo, and radiation). Asking for prayers for not only mom but also Andree to give them both strength and healing.
