I appreciate your kind words and support. I wish you both the best and I am sending you positive vibes!

P.S. I am super proud of myself. This is the first time I ever quoted multiple messages.

Last Monday I took mom for a CT scan. On Friday we went to the oncologist. The 2 spots are still there. However, they don't know if they are cancer or not. They said it could be treated cancer. They have stopped chemo treatments for two months because they said her body can't handle any more at this time. Her body needs time to rest and heal. Her CA125 is within normal range. We'll go back in August to check those numbers again. Hopefully, they stay the same.

Thank you, Chad. Overall she is doing well. She walks every day, goes to the YMCA a few times a week to swim and walk. She does things outside like working in the flower beds and various other activities. She just gets tired very quickly but doesn't sleep well. Plus, she's much weaker than she was.

She's also doing things like backing the car into the flower bed. Then she went to the store but forgot a few things on her list so I had to run back over there. I think the chemo has caused her to become a little foggy. Hoping that fog lifts during the chemo break.

I hope you and your mom are doing well. The addition sounds nice. Maybe you could add another wing for weary butches.

Thanks again!

Yep, I think you and I will chat a lot as time goes by. Mom can still take care of herself but I am worried about the times that she may need a lady around.

Best wishes your friend,
Chad

Had an EGD & colonoscopy Wednesday...first one in 2.5 yrs.

Doc did a biopsy of "suspicious spot" in my stomach, so awaiting that biopsy report. Had some oozing post biopsy, so she had to keep pressure on that area for a bit. I was back under anesthesia for 1.5 hrs instead of usual 45 min or so.

I am having paroxysmal pain in the ascending colon, just at splenic flexure ...so not sure what is going on. Doesn't require any pain meds. I am not worried, leaving it all in the Goddess's hands!

Have a beautiful Sunday everyone. Keep fighting & know I send you all positive energies & gentle hugs.

Clay, sending lots of positive thoughts and healing energy your way.

I like the sentiment `leaving it all in the Goddess`s hands` that has been my mantra of late.
