Update on "Toots"
« on: October 22, 2012, 09:47:02 PM »
Well, we went thru her first chemo treatment Friday. Lovely ****in' stuff! the port they use has to be surgically implanted. Whoopeee, another surgery.

Wasn't too bad this time, but we're told it will get much worse. They did a P.E.T. scan and couldn't see that it has migrated any farther. Which I guess that is good news. I'm still not sure what the hell it is.

She came through like the tough 'ol broad I know she is, so we'll see what happens the farther we go.

Will try to keep y'all updated. I'll pretty much be hit 'n miss for a while.



I'm the guy your mother warned you about!

Well bad news, like we need any more! She's been havin' bloody noses and headaches lately. She's goin' in to have a CT scan and an MRI to make sure it hasn't progressed to her brain.

I'm scared to death! She's been havin' headaches for a long time. I've always figured it was her blood pressure. The Doc says her platelets are low and it could mean................

Lord, we lift up Allo and his wife at this time of need. We need your healing hand to restore Allo's wife to good health and to Allo himself and his family to ease their fears and anxiety.

Continue to be a force in their lives and in ours. We ask for these things in Jesus' name.

Amen.
