*~~*MORE PRAYERS PLEASE*~~*

MY BEAUTY FULL VALENTINE ROSES IN THE SNOW

FINALLY GOT A SHOWER, LOOK AWAY IF YOU ARE SQUEAMISH

THESE ARE WHAT I WOKE UP TO THE DAY OF MY OPERATION WHICH WAS TUESDAY, THE 23RD! ICK! THEY CALL THEM GRENADES OR JP DRAINS. THEY WEREN'T ALL THAT STRANGE LOOKING, MY HUSBAND HAD ONE BACK IN 84. FOR LYNMPH NODE DRAINAGE..HOPEFULLY, I GET THESE OUT THIS MONDAY! I DON'T CARE TO SEE THE FLOW OF LIFE THIS CLOSE! MEDICINE HAS ADVANCED....MY HUSBAND HAD TO STAY IN THE HOSPITAL BACK THEN FOR 13 DAYS UNTIL THOSE DRAINS QUIT DRAINING! I DO HAVE TO EMPTY MINE EVERY 8 HOURS BUT I WOULD RATHER BE HOME.....IT'S HARD IN THE MORNINGS! ICK! MY DAD WENT TO THE NURSING HOME THIS DAY TOO. MY MOM GOES TO SEE A CANCER DR. THURSDAY. PHEW!

I FIGURED MY LEMON LUMP WAS CANCEROUS (IT ACHED AND FELT LIKE A HOT LAVA ROCK!)SOOoooOO I WASN'T TOO SURPRISED BUT STILL THE THIRD DAY , THURSDAY, I LAY IN MY BED AT HOME IN KIND OF A SHOCK. THE DR. SAYS HE'S PRETTY SURE HE GOT IT ALL, IT WAS EVEN GROWING INTO MY MUSCLE AND TRYING TO ENTANGLE MY BONE! I WILL FIND OUT NEXT WEEK OR THE NEXT WHAT MY TREATMENT WILL BE NOW, i KNOW SOME CHEMO AND RADIATION. I'VE ALREADY TOLD MY DR. I'VE BEEN ONLINE AND FOUND OUT SOME JOURNAL SAYS 3 WEEKS OF RADIATION IS GOOD AS 5-6 BUT HE ISN'T GOING TO LISTEN TO ME I DON'T THINK. I'LL TRY AGAIN AND SEE WHAT HE SAYS. IF ANY OF YOU SWEETIES KNOW SOME TIPS ON WHAT GETS YOU THROUGH THESE TREATMENTS LET ME KNOW! MY FAITH HAS GOTTEN ME THIS FAR AND HOPEFULLY I'LL TRUST IN THE LORD ALL THE WAY!

I WAS DOWN THE HALL FROM PEDIATRICS AND THAT WAS HARD, HEARING THOSE SWEET CHILDREN CRIES. WEDNESDAY, THE DAY I GOT TO COME HOME I WAS WALKING DOWN THE HALL WITH MY HUSBAND AND THERE WAS A LITTLE BLACK AND WHITE TERRIER THEY HAD BROUGHT IN FOR THERAPY! ONE OF OUR NUNS CAME TO VISIT ME AND READ SCRIPTURE AND SANG TO ME!!! SOOooooOO SWEET!
WE STILL NEED PRAYERS JUST LIKE EVERYONE DOES! THANK YOU! I WILL KEEP YOU ALL IN MY PRAYERS!!!

A GET WELL CARD I GOT TODAY HAD THIS SCRIPTURE IN IT

THE LORD BLESS YOU, AND KEEP YOU:

THE LORD MAKE HIS FACE SHINE UPON YOU,

AND BE GRACIOUS TO YOU; THE LORD LIFT UP

HIS COUNTENANCE UPON YOU, AND GIVE YOU PEACE. NUMBERS 6:24-26

SWEET DREAMS!

AND I HAVE ALREADY NOTICED THERE IS A NEED FOR PADS TO COVER THE BED OR COUCH WHERE YOU ARE LAYING WITH THESE GRENADES! IF YOU HAVE A CHURCH GROUP WANTING TO MAKE SOME PADS TO COVER THE BED. IT WOULD BE APPRECIATED IN HOSPITALS WHEN ONE GOES HOME TO HAVE TO COVER THE PLACE WHERE THEY ARE LAYING! I ASKED FOR A COUPLE PADS BEFORE I WENT HOME! I THOUGHT THE NURSE WOULD BRING ME 2 OF THOSE PAPER SURGI-PADS BUT SHE GAVE ME 2 CLOTH GOOD SIZE PADS AND IT HAS SAVED ME FROM WASHING MY SHEETS MORE THAN ONCE!!!

~~***LIFE AND DEATH***~~

I have aging parents and my 83 soon to be 84 year old dad is in the hospital nearer death than life.
When death is near YOU think of your own death more
The day I got my mammogram and ultrasound and learned I would have to go see a surgeon was the day my dad entered the hospital. That was Monday. Wednesday I got a biopsy and test results should be in by this coming Monday. Wednesday was also the day I witnessed a nurse do a treatment on my dad I will NEVER forget. Day by day is how we all live. I thought I would post this because as my sweet friend said in my previous post, we need support! I NEED your prayers and I will keep YOU all in my prayers as always! I've thought of many poems and never wrote them down but I think I will start. YOU do think of all who are important to YOU and my husband, my three children and their loves are our loves, my mom and dad, my brother and sister-in-law, all the family and friends YOU have are more sweeter!!!!! MAY GOD BLESS US ALL!!!


XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOOXOXOXXOXOOXOXXOXOXOXOXOOXXOXOX
UPDATE 2/15/2010*******My biopsy was un-malignant(PHEW! THANK GOD!) They will schedule me an appointment and call next week for my operation to remove this lump!(hopefully, it will all test benign!) THANK YOU for prayers and thoughts! I am going to take a nice break now! GET WELL and STAY WELL my darlings! My dad,mom and our family needs your prayers too..................Thank YOU!
