Sorry to hear you didn't get sleep though-well I'll be joining you-I don't even get to get any this morning-straight to DD Soccer game for me-I should get about an hour or 2 later today though-then the kids want to go to the mall

 

[ckckc2000]

I'm heading home-Hope this is a better day-and hope to see you all later

OK-crying has stopped-It was really a bad day for her-it was like the surgeon just for the 1st time looked at her CT results and said-Oh by the way we can't do the surgery-it's spread way too much

I guess they were all planned to go-they put an IV in After 3 bad attempts-then gave her an epidural-after three failed attempts and then an Arterial IV-it's a deep iv into the Artery to measures Blood pressure-They usually do this while your out(unconscious) since it's painful-but not there

So the surgeon tells her they're going to remove the lung and she wakes up to a small bandage on her neck and one under her right arm-I guess he viewed the CT after she was under anesthesia(not the usual way to do things) and decided it was inoperative at that point-man this is like Stage III or IV Lung Cancer and it's in her lymph nodes already and in the other lung too-very bad prognosis-I hope she makes it to the 5yr point but the odds are so stacked against her(less than 5%) It just is a real bummer for her and her young daughter and Husband

So she starts Chemo/radiation next week and we pray it shrinks it down enough that she can finally have surgery

Thanks for keeping LaDonna in your prayers-it's going to be tough to beat this and I pray she can make it

Kim - Thanks for sharing a few more details with us so that we have an idea of what she's dealing with.

Is the doctor handling the chemo/radiation the same one that was to have done the surgery?

LaDonna will stay in my prayers!!! As well as her daughter and husband. How old is her daughter. I know you had said she is young!

don't know where Kayla is, but I'm up

I was woken up by G at about 2am...he was laying next to me shivering! I mean teeth chattering uncontrollably, shivering. I didn't quite know what was going on for the first 30 mins or so.

I just thought he was sleeping restlessly, but then I finally got woken up enough to turn the light on and try to make sense of it. I got him some medicine and then covered him up real good. He feels like he has a fever, but I didn't take his temp. I finally got him back to sleep around 3 and of course I can't go back. But I would have had to have gotten back up at 4:15 to get ready for work.

So, I'm going to be working on 3 1/2 hours of sleep today....... What's that saying again Kim? Sleep is Overated!!

Hope G is doing better this morning.

And good luck going on the 3-1/2 hours of sleep. Just remember the old motto...."sleep is overated!"

Sorry to add to this saddness-but I just got off the phone with DSIL-and the news is terrible-the cancer is spread and the outlook is very very poor-I can't write much more since I can barely see the keyboard thru my tears-This is just about the worst diagnosis she could of received

Thanks for all the prayers-looks like she be needing them more than ever

Kim I am so sorry

I will keep praying for her

 

[kaylajr]

I am headed out with DH and the girls

we are spending the Morning with my Mom

Thankfully No-not the same doctor-and yes her daughter Samantha is only 5yrs old Thanks everyone for keeping them in your prayers-Off to Soccer-see you later

Time for me to get off of here. Matthew has a soccer game. See you all later.

 

[Mom2Ashli]

I need to get out of this chair and get moving.

Hi everyone.. I was just reading back.. I am so sorry for what you guys are going through right now.. you are all in my thoughts and prayers!!

 

[eeyoresmountainpals]

Just thought I'd pop on here and say hi!

Matthew's team won their game 7 - 0!!! They played great! They're a good team, no hot shots or ball hogs. They all work together and pass the ball! Matthew was goalie for the first half and didn't let any get by. Then for most of the second half he was on offense.

I think I'm gonna take a little nap. Not often lately that I have a Saturday off.

See you guys later.

[ckckc2000]

OK-Off to the Mall(luckey me) and only 3 hrs sleep-but as I say sleep is over-rated!!! Oh and Catie's team won too!!! 3-2,they only scored while Catie was off defense catching her breath-good game over-all,but Man was it Hot again
