Six Months Later...


My mom and sister dropped off this plaque the other day that were the words on the Oncologist wall. Definitely words to live by.

I'm sorry everyone for not posting more frequently about lorries condition. Seems my change in occupation has completely preoccupied all my time but that is no excuse. I'll make sure to keep everyone up on here current condition. Well it's been almost six months since the last post where I commented on her father and his personal fight with the dragon. We have been in and out of the hospital almost every month since then. Having reoccurring infections due to the foreign objects that have been inserted in her biliary and ureter has been another battle in itself. Because of the stents probability for infection, we have to change them even more frequently than were told. She has managed to get to about 106 pounds and that is a milestone for her after being close to 90 pounds just a few months ago. She is now having another problem with eating and we are actively looking at it now with our doctors at Scottsdale Health Care. We have found a few months ago that by adding supplements to her drinks that she can sustain better nutrition than trying to eat solid foods. We have been trying a new product that gives her five servings of 60 fruits and vegetables as well as 22 probiotics in a 6oz drink. It has been easy for her to ingest and is making her feel better nutritionally. Tomorrow we are off to the hospital for a upper GI that her Gastrologist has ordered for her swallowing issue. I'll be back as soon as the results are in. Thanks to everyone for your continued support and prayers...... Scott
