in Ovarian Cancer #1
There has been too many stays with each one leaving me worst off than when I went in. this last visit my left leg has swelled up so bad I can hardly walk on it. I came home yesterday and today they delivered my wheel chair it was bitter sweet, I don't like the ideal of being in a wheel chair for when me when I use to walk a mile aday and now I can't walk 20 feet and yet now with the wheel chair I will be able to do more than just leaving to go to appointments only and then back home. I am planning a trip to the casion to play in a poker turnament I have not done that in 15 months since I got cancer and I am so looking forward to doing something that does not belong to cancer. I hope I am not in the hosptail anytime soon. This hospital stay also brought out the fact that I am going to have to go into a group home my parents can no longe take cae of me the wa I ned to be taken care of. I never wanted to go into a group home but I understand where they are comeing from they just can't do it anymore. I am wearing my mother down and she herself is on disability I can't keep doing this to her.I am not happy because I will be leaving the only home I have ever know. There has been to much change in the past ver months and I just don't know how I feel anymore.

Much
Love, Hugs, and Prayers
Anne

    Anne I am so sorry you are
    Anne I am so sorry you are going through all this... I don't know what else to say. I am at a total loss for words. It just is not fair.

    You enjoy your trip to the casino... Have fun. Plan a second trip as well. Hell go there every weekend. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

    Anne, I am so upset to hear all this. All I can say is that I hope you kick **** at poker and buy yourself something fun and impractical. Keep up your spirit that is what matters now.

    Group home
    Not sure what that is..is it a nursing home or assisted living. I am sorry you have to go through this and I am sure your parents must be heart broken as well. Keep up the fight and never lose hope...Val

    I too find it
    difficult to find words that can help you right now. Just know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. The thought that you want to take a trip to the casino shows you still have spirit and that is what gets us through the tough times. I know what you mean when you say you want to do something that doesn't belong to cancer. I always tell my mom that I don't want to be "the cancer girl."

    Stay strong, Anne, and I pray you will start to get some relief from all the issues you are confronting right now.


    Love, Karen
