Hospice helps the family as well as the patient. Other than

I do not know what to say.
Try to rest, and care for yourself. They will help her be comfortable.
I am sorry that any of this has had to happen to your family.

You are ALL in my thoughts always, and I try to send thoughts of strength, healing and serenity to you constantly.
Hopes for a better year to everyone.

Hospice is very helpful to the family. It is mostly dependent upon the individual(s) that come to help, but no matter who is there they are a wonderful resource.

x a gazbillion!

I'm losing my eyelashes & eyebrows again. Is this a normal thing? I can see baby lashes all in a row under my others that are dropping out daily.

What's going on? Has anyone else gone through this? It's funny, the other day I was going through all my makeup stuff and saw my eyebrow pencil and thought "haha won't be seeing you anytime soon"

The hair on my head is coming in nice and thick and I went ahead and dyed it auburn. I'll take a pic when my eyelashes come back. Hope everyone is doing well, I think of all of you daily. Deerman - how are you doing? Coyote - I see you here and there, how are you?

I'm doing pretty good. Tired but good. We tried adopting another pup as a playmate for Katie which isn't working out. Reba wants to eat my kitties! My "doggie barometer" aka Luna Kitty wants nothing to do with her, which isn't a good sign. Luna hasn't been afraid of any dog that has come into the house but this one. Even Katie's foxhound buddy, Cherry, doesn't phase her. Reba will be going back to the rescue as soon as we can get back up the mountain. They got snowed in this weekend and we are expecting to get snowed in tomorrow. Yeah fun, NOT!

Other than that, we're all doing ok. Trying to stay warm!!!

This has nothing to do with cancer, but since most of you know the situation with my DH, it was confirmed recently that with his pulmonary fibrosis - his is very severe....and the prognosis is 3 to 5 years. I'm hoping after his retirement this June that we can spend a lot of time together doing this and that.......simple things and have some fun of some sort. He's on oxygen most of the day and I set him up for treatment with the nebulizer every day... that's all we can do now.

I held back on this kind of news, because I hate to be a downer.........but ....here it is.

I might not be on much so......I'll keep in touch as much as I can. Next week is Dr week for me.....oncologist, surgeon for check ups etc. sigh sigh sigh..........

Hey! You need to know that we are here for you for no matter what comes down the road. Good or not so good, we are here to share the road in any way you want us too.


I think my eyebrows are having sympathy pains for yours! My hair has started coming back in but my eyebrows are falling out. What's with that? I've never lost them before. Looks really strange.


We've been trying to adopt a playmate for Katie. She's bored here with just mom to play with espcially when mom has a bad day. Cherry does come down and play nearly every, but she does tire out pretty quickly. Cherry is 8. We took another "trial dog" back on Wednesday. This one tried to kill my cats. We are now thinking that with a little puppy that is brought up with the cats will be less likely to try to kill them when she gets old.

I keep sending my best thoughts as I read these posts. I keep trying to spread good karma, and I hope that any I have banked will get donated to you.

I came across this pic this morning on my mom's FB page. Yup, it's a moonflower. Looks like it has been there a long time, but I never saw it before. I needed to share it with you.
