Hi everyone Kritter is going through treatment and having a very hard time; please keep her in your thought & prayers that she will have the strength to continue. A few weeks ago a lot of her hair was falling out so she cut it all off; I told her that I will do the same to help in supporting her through her treatment.

 

So here’s to you kid one ball headed hondo!  Please offer up a pray today or tonight in her behalf.

 

 

Kritter: We are all here for you, keep pushing forward

    I'm sorry to hear she's having such a

    hard time.  Hang in there, Kritter....this is temporary.....one day at a time is all you have to get through.  I'd cut my hair to match Tim's, but it's already there Smile.

    Sending positive thoughts and prayers....and will tuck you into my pocket.

    Hi Everyone

    I got an e-mail from Kritter last night she is very weak so weak and having a really hard time just trying to breath that she could not complete her scan. She did say if she was able to log on to CSN she would just to say hi and thank you.

     

    So please keep up the prayer and thoughts in her name

    So much

    Thank you for sharing Tim.  Knitter went through so much the first time.  She probably didn't have much time to heal before round two.  Prayers for strength and healing for you girl.  I know it is tough.  Day by day, sometime minute by minute, you will do it.

    Kritter up-date 8-15-15

     

    I got an e-mail from Kritter, she is feeling a little better but still losing weight down to 95lbs. Doctor wants to put a PEG back in but if you remember she had a lot of problems the first time with PEG tubes, so she is trying to avoid having to get one again if at all possible. She is going for another scan on the 19th so please once again keep her in prayer.

     

     

     

    Thank you all for caring

    Tim thank you..........

    She has been through so much, but she is a true fighter. I very much hope the stop the weight loss, as in makes everything worse.

    My wife has alwasy been small around 98 ~105 and size 4. Many years ago she got very sick and dropped down to 68 lbs. and very dehydrated. When I got her to the hospital and checked in and to her room the nurse look at me and asked if I would leave the room while my Mother gets changed. She was 32 at the time and I was 30. I looked at the nurse and said, she is my wife, and I think you need to leave. My wife was in tears and wanted me to lift her out on the wheelchair and hold her up to the mirror. I told her you are very dehydrated, and it's going to be ok. It took several days but she got back to herself.  For me having COPD weight is a big concern if I lost to much before surgery, but did get it back. It is harder on me if mine gets to low. Heck they say I burn more calories then most just breathing because of COPD.

    Tim thanks for keeping us informed, as everyone seems like family now, and it saddens us when you know one is having it so rough. They say H&N treatment is the second hardest you can go through. You just hate to see someone go through hell and back. Let her know she and her family will always be in my thoughts and prayers. Just one day at a time and hour by hour when needed...........Never give up.

    I hope you are able to remain somewhat comfortable and staying hydrated and eating some. One day at a time is a big goal sometimes but you can do it. You are in my thoughts. Don
