Hi PJ Dear,
I feel your pain, and I wish I could do or be right there for you. Now that
you have vented you have to try and get a grip and focus on your Mom. Your
sweet hubby will help with little Robbie, you have so many friends here and
we'll help where we can. You need to get copies of all your mothers tests
and lab work. Make sure that they are checking the throid, I had the Doc
check Mom's when we were having trouble with her and he fould that her med
needed to be reduced, and what a difference just that one med decrease made.
I don't think the Doctors take the time to read the reports much anymore, so
we have to as caregivers make sure that the job is done and done right. Ask
the Lab to give you a print out fro normal levels on all blood work, ours did
with no problem, that will help you stay on top of everything. Is your
Mother on Cranberry Juice, 8 0z a day will keep the infection away, and at
first have her drink as much as she can, it will clear it up. My Mother
hasn't had to be on antibiocs since we got her on the Cranberry juice, and no
infection anymore. I wished I could be with you and help out. I will do
what I can for you from here OK?
Love (((((((HUGS))))))))) and tons of prayers to you and yours,
Nanc ():-)
Hang in and shape up for a good fight now, OK?

Hi Molers
Mom isn't doing well so I'm probably leaving for Florida again. I'm so upset
that you have no idea. She is having major stomach and vaginal infection
problems and she is having more diarrhea. They stopped the chemo and she
can't seem to get ahead.
Her JERK OF A DOCTOR (the primary doctor) told my aunt on monday that mom is
not doing good, it's looking real bad and well you know the rest MOLERS.
But I put a call into the Oncologist and I'm going to tell her what this
jerk
is saying. Because the last time this JERK said this I told the Onc and she
said don't pay attention to her. But now I need to find out from her again
how mom is doing. I saw the Onc last month and she said mom was ok only the
cancer went up from 19 to 27 then this month from 27 - 31. I don't think
that's a death sentence do you?
In my opinion mom is taking TOO MANY medications for stomach, vaginal, urine
infections and not to mention her thyroid pill. All these medications
cannot
be doing her good. She is stopping the vaginal pill because the JERK said
to. Mom won't change from this doctor at all. But I think I need to tell mom
to change now and that's that.
I was hoping to spend somemore time at home then leave for Florida in Jun 2
but I probably need to go now. I signed up my son for summer camp and I'm
going to loose thousands. You guys all know about the cost of camp. I
just
have to send my son. I need to come home before camp starts and hope that my
family here can watch my son until I return again. But my little peanut has
also be though alot tracking back and forth to Florida. It's hard on an
almost 4 yr old. He needs to make friends and stay in one place. But the
hubby says he will change his hours and help out. He truly is a friend to
me.
Sorry for all this garbage.
I'll surely know when I'm leaving soon so I'll pass it on to you.
My hubby is buying me a webtv computer so that I can communicate with all of
you.
I think it's a good idea.
I just need to say that so many of you and mom are suffering so much it's
tearing me apart. I read your letters and I ask why why why. I hate this
cancer crap it's making all my loved ones leave me and I hate it.
I want off this roller coaster ride now. I want everyone to heal and not to
be ill.
Lovingly
PJ
