Also, please keep my sis, Dolo, in the light of your warm prayers. She is experiencing again the hoarseness she had before starting chemotherapy. Her red blood cell was low as was her magnesium level yesterday.

I have a lot of reading here to catch up with. Know that I thought of this "place" even when I felt feverish.

waxnrope, a quick hello before you rest and need to get the bad bugs out.

Also , hope Dolo finds today better than yesterday, and every day gets better N better. Here's info you may find helpful

"CureToday.com - Combining science with humanity,

CURE magazine, is a free publication for those on the cancer journey, and is the indispensable guide for patients and their families from diagnosis through treatment."
It is provided free of charge hard copy magazine and on-line, and has some fantastic articles, helpful hints, breakthrough news and clinical trials.

I get the hard copy and the emagazine, because it has such a wealth of information, from actual survivors who have helpful tips, and I have it here for those that may want to read about the journey we are taking.

Best regards, and fast healing for you both.
Tommi

I am sorry I have not kept up with everyone personally but I am a wee enmeshed in family and the craziness that is my life (which means lots of meetings and commitments that all run together in a pack). My brother had pneumonia again and so they postponed the closing of the wound on his arm til today. They took a skin graft from his thigh and used it to close up the wound. He was still sleeping when I talked to my sister. The blood clot has not gotten smaller and he still has a brain bleed. He continues to be in critical stable condition with only my sister in law allowed to see him.

Thanks for all your prayers and candles. I so appreciate them.

Tonight, I lit candles for ~

~Thankfulness that good things are [finally] coming my daughter's way for a change! (Neat house to share with 2 really neat kids! Met them and the Mom of one of them and we have a lot in common!)

~For SD & T, for a safe journey home...

~And for sweet BK, for strength and comfort following the passing of his partner....

I light this candle for anyone in need. For those that are suffering and for those that are not. For those that need to find some peace and respite and those that do not. For those that need strength to persevere and those that do not. There is no discrimination when it comes to sending love and strength.. regardless of your past nor your future.. or who are in the station of someone's life.. especially to the one lighting the candle. I lit this one for everyone.

As it's stands the chemo is too much for her in her deteriorated condition and she is unable to eat hardly anything. She has chosen to return home from the hospital (w/ hospice care) today and it appears it will won't be long at all now.

My gf is down there with her, if you could see fit to send some of that positive energy her way it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you... and you are all in my thoughts each day.

My brother is sitting up 2-3 hours a day. Very aware of his surroundings. He is doing PT on his arm, shoulder and leg. He has been moved to the telemetry unit. Thank you for your continued support and prayers.
