One of the last journals for a while
5 years ago
So just a heads up... this probably will be one of my last journals I'll make for some time
To update everyone:
My mother was about to start radiation for her head to help get rid of the few tumors left. She tolerated the chemo very well as well and her body reacted in the right way to remove a good amount of it...
This past Monday she was to start radiation, but started not feeling well. Thought it was a respiratory infection, but ended up her lung collapsed again. Thursday night she ended up having a severe muscle spasm/jerk that lead into her having 2 seizures in the ER. The seizures most likely are from the remaining tumors in the brain...
Today her spasms, as they persisted, has slowed down some. Believing those spasms are from a new med she started taking to help prepare her brain for radiation and to protect it. The drawback is that apparently last night she got very agitated and confused to the point she didn't know where she was and thought she was back home in Kentucky. This was the "1 minute to midnight" alarm I had been dreading. They keep saying they "think" it's from the steroid they were giving her, but I know how she is better than they do and am sure it's the beginning of the end. Will it actually be? I have no idea, but my gut hasn't been wrong before...
Either way; Christmas, let alone Thanksgiving, may not even happen and I might be gone for a long while if what I fear will take place comes true
If people could still help donate for expenses. Please see my YCH that is in my gallery, the characters I have for sale, or the GoFundMe that I am running here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/mother-s.....ed-with-cancer
