My sister and I were going to spend the weekend at my aunts house (the 17th and the 18th). We'd head over Friday morning and head back Saturday night. That way, we would still be home for my dad. It was actually rather nice to be out of the house. We spend Friday just lounging around and...

I am starting a new post: http://www.cgalliance.org/forums/showthread.php?48993-Recovering&p=482972

Not much has happened the day after. I suggested to my dad that he go to work as occupational therapy. However, because he feels so empty without mom, he feels the need to be home because being around me and my sister help to remind him of mom. We went to the hospital to collect mom's things...

I had thought that, since my mother no longer needs praying for, that there was no longer a need to keep up this forum post. However, I imagine I could start a new post logging my family’s recovery. I’m not sure what all I could put in it. But, just having a forum I could post to helps.

You know, I think the main thing about Windows 8 is that, unlike past operating systems, this was targeted specifically at tablets. Most past versions of Windows had a variety of releases for each version that came out. However, every edition of 8 was targeted at tablets. Of course, that's not...

If you look at the last message on my forum post (01/15/2014), you'll know what has happened. I've talked with my sister about talking to other people. She says that she feels more comfortable talking to family than with complete strangers. Mind you, she might change her mind once things have a...

My mother passed away today. There were just way too many complications because of different infections, bugs, and the TB that her body just couldn't fight anymore. I suppose fingers could be pointed at the medical community for not catching certain things at certain times. But, at the end of...

I've gotten new information about my mom. I think she had to be resuscitated. Also, they say her kidneys are shutting down. They can give her medication to help her kidneys. But, she's already got a build-up of potassium and if she could pee she would do much better.

You know, I knew Windows 8 was going to be a problem when I had to Google "shutdown windows 8" after I turned on my moms computer just to pay some bills. This was the top result: http://www.pcworld.com/article/2012202/how-to-shut-down-windows-8.html You know an OS is having problems when one of...

My mother is steadily improving day after day. The one new bit of information I would have is that she had TB and another bug. But, I'm getting bits and pieces here and there. So, it's not really new news. All we know for sure is that she got the TB from one of the hospitals she was at. However...

My mother is improving. Because she has reached a certain level of improvement, they have altered her medication. But, the main problem is that she has a rapid heart beat...I'm asuming because she's nervouse or restless. If she could calm down, she could get well faster. Also, my dad told us...

I have a better story about what happened to my mom today. In our family, we are affected by changes in the weather. Sometimes, all it is is just a runny nose. Other times, we have a hard time breathing. Well, the weather changed and I'm assuming her heart and lungs were having trouble coping...

Sorry to hear that about your mom. But, I'm glad you understand where I'm coming from. You know, it’s interesting that you say that. After I got the good news about my mom and told my sister, I offered to hug her and she wasn’t interested (even though she’s been affected by this whole...

There's something I'd like to say to everyone on this forum. Although, I don't know how many will read it. But, it, especially, goes out to everyone who has ever prayed for someone else: I like having friends. I'll admit that I have a hard time keeping up with them (of course, part of that has...

We just got the word that my mom has stabilized. So, she is not getting worse.

My dad was told to go to the hospital around 3:00pm today. I don’t have any details except that she’s not doing well and needs a miracle.

My grandfather's memorial service was today. I discovered a bunch of things about him that I never knew. However, I think those things were more along the line of not wanting to brag about smoking. He changed after those things and wanted to be remembered as a Godly man. I've been working on a...

My mother’s white blood cell count has been rising. First, it barely registered. Then, rising each day this week, .1, .2, 1.1, and tonight it is 3.8. I am told that 3 is optimum so that she can continue chemo. However, she has a problem staying still for too long. So, they have to put her in...

My mother had her first chemo treatment last Monday. However, getting into the week, she caught something. We don't know if it's a cold or the flu. Bottom line, she has almost no white blood cells to fight off the infection. She was transfered to our larger methodist hospital so that she could...

Aside from my mother having cancer (or whatever PNET is), my dad has been sick for a few months. Whatever he had, he gave it to me over the weekend. Tonight, I gave it to my sister. So, I’ll be taking on her chores as well as tending to her. But, what’s of more concern is that my mom started...
