Update on Cancer

Post by GF-aka Oma »

Mike is reverting to before the radiation~His right side quit working. He's not eating much. He's back in the wheelchair~ I am however keeping the or D away for now. Picking and choosing my food carefully. I have a kindle fire, and I find soothing nature music, to listen to (he only sleeps 2 hrs @ a time and I have found baking for my 7 yr old grand son is helpful, my way of dealing. Love ya'll Oma[/b]

Hi Oma

You both remain in my thoughts and prayers. I hope that you can continue to find the strength you need to do every thing that you need to do, and that you will remember to take care of yourself, also.

Love,
Tex

I am so sorry. Take care of yourself first, if you can, I know it's almost impossible. Find peace wherever you can. Each of us finds our own way down that last road and, in my experience, you somehow summon the strength and will to get through even the worst days. The thing that I always kept in my mind when my husband(s) were nearing the end of their battles with cancer was that this was about them, not me or anyone else. The other thing to keep in mind is that you can only do the best you can. Don't expect yourself to do more than is possible to do.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm keeping you and your husband in my prayers. I'm glad you are finding some peaceful ways to cope. Also glad that you are keeping the D at bay.
