I have waited until after the holidays to update, they were hard enough for me and I did not want to bring anyone else down if I could avoid it. My mom is dying!! She was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer, she became jaundiced and because of other health issues, chemo or radiation is not an option for her. She has chosen not to let the dr's alleviate her jaundice, it will make her death much easier and less painful for her. If they let the cancer progress and take the jaundice away, her pain would be excrutiating. We had a wonderful Christmas and New year with her, and every day is a blessing we get to see her smile and tell us she loves us. She is living with my husband and I, and the rest of my family comes there and helps us take care of her. Hospice is helping as well, and we have been told it could be anytime. So please pray we have the courage,faith and strength to see her off with the grace she deserves and to survive it afterward.
thanks to all of you
