Dawne update

in Breast Cancer #1

Dawne has been back in the hospital since Thursday night. She has been having a very rough time with fluid accumulating in her left lung. The cancer has spread to her left lung now. She has had fluid drained 4 times in a little less than 2 weeks, 3 times last week. She has gone in to heart failure and had a very scary episode when she went in to respiratory distress yesterday. They had planned on placing a drain in her lung but cannot do that because it is to risky to put her to sleep. I wish you could all know Dawne. She is amazing she is fighting like a champ, she has such a strong spirit. Her family is with her and take the very best of care of her. Please keep her and her family in your prayers and thoughts. God Bless you all

    Dawne is in

    I think about her alot and what a fighter she is. It's so hard knowing what she's having to go through.Just not fair.It's one thing after another.Her family is by her side and helping her through this. It has to be wearing them down but they won't give up. 

    Thoughts and Prayers to Dawne, her family and friends. I will think of her daily.

    Thank You Janice for this update.

    Such an ordeal-- Dawne is truly a fighter

    with SPIRIT.  I am a loss for words when I hear/know that a procedure or surgery is needed, but can not be performed due to the impact it may have on the patient by putting them into a twightlight sleep.  It makes Dawne's issues so surreal. 

    Prayers and Strength for our beloved Dawne.

    Thank you Jancie

    Thank you so much Janice for the update. I wish I have had the chance to know her better but she is on my mind a lot esp. with the heart failure. I had congrestive heart failure a year after my 1 year in remission so I can relate to what she is going through. I had blood clots in my legs, lung and heart. Please tell her that I send her my love, lots of cyberhugs and lots of prayers.

    As always, thank you, Janice...

    So many of us here, including me, continue to keep Dawne within hopeful thoughts & prayers. I imagine it's not easy for you to keep us 'in the loop' with such difficult news. Each time I log on, I scan for your posts.

    Dawne possesses a truly inspiring & amazing spirit. I hope & pray her body can keep pace.

    (((Hugs))) for you, Janice.

    Kind regards, Susan
