Purrs and prayers for your mom that she is comfortable and getting the care
she needs.

And also for your family. It is so hard to watch someone you love fight and
not to be able to get in there and do it for them,

Also thanks for answered prayers. So glad that things have worked out so
you are home or close to home now when you so much need to be. Even if it
did take hernias and truck wrecks and sick cats to keep you there.

Jo

My mom has been doing chemo for her spinal cancer for 7 months now with no
problems, but she is now starting to experience problems. She has been
feeling really lousy for the last week, and finally went to see her doctor
yesterday afternoon. Her doctor's reaction was to call an ambulance to
take her to the hospital.

She is suffering from neutropenia, and is very anemic. She hasn't eaten
anything for a couple days. When Nancy and I visited her in the hospital
she was having difficulty forming coherent sentences. My brother reports
she had been having that problem the day before as well.

Some purrs for a speedy recovery would be appreciated.

Hi Dan,

It seems like our mothers are in sync. I remember you posting about
your mother about the same time my mother started her chemo. Last
month, my mother went through the anemia thing. She ended up in the
hospital for about 5 days and was given about 10 pints of blood while
there. I was told by many people that her situation was not unusual and
chances are she could go through it again before all is done.

It took four days for it all to really kick in for Mom. On the 4th day
in the hospital, she finally warmed up (she was freezing under blankets
while we sat there sweating), her elimination issues cleared up, and her
appetite returned. They let her go home on the 5th day. She went back
to the doctor last week, and they're holding off her chemo for another
four weeks. On the bright side, last Monday's CAT scan shows the tumor
is smaller.

So hang in there, and keep the faith. It's hard, I know. I got three
kitties sending out cancer stompin' purrs your way.

Lorraine

My three are on the purr patrol, Dan. Your poor Mom... that's a LONG time
to be receiving chemo. I hope she feels better soon. But good for her
doctor to send her to the hospital for the needed care right away.
