They let my mom come home from the hospital late last night. There are no more tests to do, and they say she will be more comfortable at home. We all agree! Because of the cancer cells in her brain fluid, she is experiencing brain seizures that cause her to lose her words and make it hard for her to speak and remember things. She is taking an anti-seizure medication that seems to be helping keep the seizures from happening. She is very tired and she sleeps a great deal.
Monday she will begin a new chemotherapy treatment that will attack the cancer in her central nervous system. The drug will be administered through an injection into her spine. The doctor says that we could see improvement after the first round of therapy. She will have treatments every other week.
We have been receiving so many calls, emails and words for support and prayers. Thank you all for your love and encouragement. Please continue to hold up my mom and dad in prayer. Pray for God's healing power over my mom's body and for Him to give my dad strength and courage as he faces this journey.
Much love,
Mandy
