    Dear Winter Marie,
    Sending

    Dear Winter Marie,

    Sending lots of positive energy to you! As much as I hate to hear this news, I am glad you are where you can get the best care and calories! I am hopeful you are comfortable and getting some rest.  Head phones and music helped me tremendous during my stays. Hopeful you will be home soon and able to continue treatments.  

    My thoughts and prayers are with you as you strengthen. Keep going Winter!!

    Thank you all / UPDATE

    I've had quite the time. I was hospitalized last Monday and tonight I should be getting out since home health/nurse care has finally been approved.

    I received two blood transfusions (from losing blood thanks to the 6cm newest tumor in colon) 6 potassium, 6 magnesium and a few other goodies to bring me back to life.  I was not in good shape, walking from my bedroom to my living room required great amount of effort that I soon gave up on.  Thank goodness Doc took a look at me and sent me to hospital.  He suggested I send for my loved ones (my daughter flew out from Ohio)he said he still had hope but things were not looking good.  

    I have been on TPN all week which is what has been keeping me alive, because of tumor in colon eating/pooping doesnt do well. I now weigh 110 pounds and have that scary cancer look of skin and bones, no clothes fit, I have to hold my pants up.

    But feeling much better today, I now get 5FU and Oxi once a week, doc hopes to get liver tumors (two are now size of baseballs) that they can remove the tumor in colon which is causing me such problems.

    So still fighting and still here.

    Thwnk you so much for words of encouragement, well wishes and prayers.  I truly appreciate them

    Oh My Goodness

    You have had a terrible week.  I'm so sorry that you are going through so much.  Hoping that they can take care of that tumor so that you can get some nutrition in you.  Maybe you should be taking some boost to help you get the vitamins you need.  You always have such a wonderful spirit even through the worst of things.  You are very much admired and hoping that you get to feeling better and that they are able to get things more stable.

    Hugs and prayers going your way.  Kim
