My leukemia's back.

Copied this that I posted on another thread. Prayers please, that things will go well. .......Our daughter in law that is with us now, has been a huge help to me lately. Have been going to the Nephrologist with my little sis...our daughter in law drives me. Lisa has been getting more sick. And sadly, talking about wanting to go home...points to the heavens. Says, I miss mom. When the Dr. heard that, and watched her be sick in his office, yet again says, it's time. Not sure if the fishula is ready, but will talk with the surgeon ..who we go see tomorrow. He says, if the surgeon says it's ready, great. If not, he wants her to go that very day, to get the port put in, and start dialysis on Friday. I was screaming hallelujah in my mind. She doesn't look like our same Lisa. She's lost Soo much weight. No appetite..can't keep it down with just a few bites, Diarrhea, very very tired. After she threw up, she said in the most sad little voice, I don't feel good. I sure hope the dialysis helps her feel better more often than not. I know how it can go, have heard . My other sister and I have talked. We are giving Lisa this chance. If down the road, she is still not doing well enough to want to keep going, it will be her choice as to keep going. It was her choice yesterday. We've told her nothing but good about it, except for the part where she has to lay in a bed for hours. I so hope she will feel better.

:hugs:fl I hope it all goes well!
 
That’s such a long journey, Cynthia! Diet has to be so carefully monitored when a patient is on dialysis. But if it will make Lisa feel better, then boy, will it be worth it!

I wish I could wave a magic wand and make all the trials your family is going through go away. You are such a gentle, loving soul that it somehow all seems so unfair. But I can’t, nobody can, and it stinks! The only thing that gets us through is faith, whether in a Supreme Being or in the medical community, or both. So hang on to that, and know that we all love you!
 
TMI Old Rooster but, you sound happier:thumbsup
I'm not whole, but trying. Friday was my birthday, mom forgot last year and it made it harder that she remembered my brothers a few weeks later. but she had always said there was snow on the ground and or cold as heck on her birthday. Guess what? It was cold and windy and snow on the ground in the morning. I knew she asked for it to wish me a happy birthday, and say she loved me. I miss her all to heck, but she's in a better place no more suffering. IDC to see or hear from her siblings or their decendants. they are as dead to me. They have showed to me how NOT to live, I have to live and be honest and truthful to those around me. I would have rather them to lead by good example but they could or would not.

It is the Lenten season so Isiah 53 vs 5
5 But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was bruised for our iniquities;
The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
