I want to thank each and every one of you for your kind and generous
words of support. I went home and told my husband all about this group
and we called grandma and told her that I had met some very nice people
who would like to drop her a few lines to cheer her up. She cried and
said that if it wasn't for the kindness of people she didn't even know,
she didn't know how she'd get through this.
She paniced last night and called us because the girl who comes to help
her take her medicine was late and she was scared to death. I stayed on
the phone with her until she got there, but it was an hour after she was
due to take her mediine. She called her daughter -my husbands mother -
who lives about 1 mile and 1/2 from her to see if she'd come and help
her, she told her she was in the middle of something and she'd stop by
in the morning. Thankfully the girl who is helping her finally showed
up - it was circumstances beyond her control that prevented her from
being on time. Does anyone have any suggestions how we can have her
medication set up so that if this does happen again, she'll know what to
do? Also her diet is deplorable, she's eating TV dinners, and last
night she had Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy and butter soaked corn.
Don't these kinds of food just exacerbate the effects from the Chemo?
What foods can we suggest to her?
Before I forget her name and address are as follows:
Carol Saunders
61108 CR 17, Lot 23
Goshen, Indiana 46526
She'd love getting cards from you all, and thank you again for your
wonderfulness!!
God Bless you all...
Amanda
