Prayers needed.... Shane's Mom is in the hospital... she is not doing well at all... it's that nasty "C" word.... We have been in Enterprise, OR since Sat morning and we are staying again tonight... then we drive home Tues , will work Wed-Fri and fly out Fri night and back home Sun... repeat again the following weekend if she hangs on that long  Shane & his brother are on a "blood run" now... this is the 3rd trip needed this weekend... she has a rare blood type and we are in such a small town that there just is not any fast way of getting it.... but she does not want to be transferred to another hospital. The normal human body has 450,000 platelets (what helps the blood clot) and Sat she only had 5,000 and Sun she had 7,000 after given two units... the Chemo is what is killing the cells. She is very weak... she has not been able to keep any food down for 6 days now and is throwing up bile....
I got sick late Fri night.... so I saw her from the entrance of her door with a mask on... and I have not been back since because she is so susceptible to infection..... so it's been really hard to not be there I know how hard this is for Shane and to not be there with him is really hard.
She really thought she was going to die on Sat... she told Shane & I her "wishes" for the service etc.... so sad....

That just stinks! I hate that "C" word! Every time you turn around you hear someone has it. It's so depressing.
You and Shane and his family are in my thoughts!!!

I had to chime in here even though I don't post a lot...
So sorry to hear. I know some of what you're going through because my baby (5 years old) is currenly battling neuroblastoma. He's been at St. Jude in Memphis TN for almost a year. Hopefully he (and my wife!) will be able to come home in a couple of weeks.

OK... I'm back in town.... Came home late Wed after my mother in laws service & gatherings were all over.....we were greeted by several neighbors asking if we had been inside yet.....NOT a good feeling.... the water heater above us busted LAST Friday.... so you could imagine the smell and nastiness that we came home to 5 days later..... the landlord says, "your contact info was blank"..... whatever... we have lived there for 9 years with the same #'s, but this is like the 7th Manager too! So, needless to say.... I've been busy with THAT since we got home. Came back to work Thurs afternoon and found out the company/office kitty Rosie passed away while I was gone too. I think OUR water heater is broken too because this morning I got an ICE COLD shower!! I called the landlord and he said someone would come look at it today......
I PLAN to be at the gym tonight...... dang it....it's been 15 days since I've been to the gym!! It's also been 2 weeks today that I've been fighting this nasty cold... so, I'm really in for a butt kickin tonight!!
