Scary day for mom and all of us that love her.
She has something going very wrong somewhere and she and Dad had to make the drive to Seattle to try to figure out what it is.
It is so hard waiting for information and being so far away. I want to just get on a plane and go out there, but with this kind of thing, I can't act without more information. Mom could go home tomorrow, keep working on keeping her weight up and have another round of chemo on Wednesday.
Or, well who knows. I hate to get into negative thinking without a good reason. Mom is so positive and she is fighting so hard. It's just that something is definitely making her very sick and the doctor is pretty sure it's not just the treatments. But maybe this kind of thing is common. Maybe it is a hurdle and a challenge and part of what happens. It is so darn hard to know what to do. My heart is there. I just have to decide when the rest of me will follow.
No, I don't have to decide. I have to listen to God's voice and go when He tells me. I know He will let me know. He always does.
If things go according to plan, I would like to take the boys back in December because I think that is when Mom is supposed to have a break in the chemo routine.
We will move it up if Mom wants me to go back earlier. I can take school and the kids can do it there, the only problem is having three active boys around the house. They are very good kids, but if someone gets sick, as we usually do when we fly back, it might not go well for Mom. She isn't supposed to be exposed to viruses and such.
The main thing now is to get her strength back and get this problem under control.
Any prayers are so very much appreciated!
