Ok dear Lillian…..I know you’re right. Thank you for the prayers, we need them all. I sure hope that you are doing
well. Will let you know tomorrow about
the biopsy of the bumps on Rich’s head.
Hard as a rock. Two of
them. Pea sized. One on forehead and one on top of his
head. What else could it be? Jeez, this really sucks. I hate it soooo much. But I love my good friends here to
always say just the right thing at the right time. Love you too much,
Vicci

Dear
Friend: There is no right or wrong way with a patient. You are
abiding by his leading you and that is the best gift you can give him.
Having someone to just hold you and be there is so comforting to him. I
can't think of a better way to handle it friend. I know how hard all of
this is on you and there is not much I can do in the way of comforting you,
other than to pray very hard for Rich and all of you. Rest assure this is
being done dear one and somehow God will cradle you and help you through all of
this. Love you, lillian

Dear Lillian,
This site tells exactly
what Richs’ chemo consists of.
He’s been a pretty sick boy since the 9th of Sept. In the hospital w/ pneumonia and out of
his head. They had to bring
someone in to watch him at night as he was pulling on tubes etc. We were there during the morning and
evening to keep his safe. We
finally got him home the 16th and he’s been on oxygen since. Just can’t seem to catch his breath or
stay oxygenated. He had two hard
bumps on his head and they are going to do a needle biopsy to see if it’s the
cancer. His CT scan shows that the
cancer in his lung and lining is shrinking but maybe it’s growing elsewhere. His liver also shows a spot right in
the middle and another scan performed two weeks latter (yesterday) shows that
it has not grown or shrunk. Dr.
thought that the spot could be from the pneumonia.
Now we don’t know. She is going to do an MRI on that area. So things are as grim as could be but
we forge ahead. Our main problem
is in his acceptance that he could die.
We encourage him to fight as that is what he wants to do. But he knows it will be a very tough
battle and he is getting very tired and has been so sick. We don’t know the right words to
comfort him and he doesn’t want to talk to anyone as he feels it’s hopeless and
I know he doesn’t want to talk about
it. We hug him and cry with him
and he tells us he has so many things he wants to do with his life. God, that’s the toughest. Highs and lows and all we can do is be
there for him. That’s where we are
right now. Thanks for listening
and I hope that things are well for you and your family. Hello to all my other friends on MOL
and my wish is that your journey is on an even keel right now. Love to all……Vicci
