Can my Groupies add my sister to the prayer list?
I wasn't sure what was going to happen (still not, but here goes):
Friday night I got a call from her daughter. A friend was concerned about her behavior on a checking in phone call (she was just out of the hospital for pneumonia). The friend found her incoherent by the time she got there.
She was taken to a local hospital where they did a cat scan and found (more than likely) cancerous lesions on her brain. They believe it is from melanoma which she had about 14 years ago. They had to transfer her to the big-city hospital for more critical care.
At this point she has not yet woken up from the sedation that they gave her on Friday night. The docs believe that she may also have some sort of infection going on. They had to sedate her again last night for another catscan because she was restless.
So the concerns are obvious, but : there must be another place where the CA is, so they will be trying to find that. Also, treating this infection (my guess: septicemia, but don't know that for a fact) and finally, finding some sort of treatment plan if there is one. She is only 59 years old. But the last 10 years of her life have been filled with all sorts of medical issues and pain. I have a feeling (and she did too, we talked about it once) and a fear that the CA is in many places.
Thank you all. Signed, a pretty sad Muush
