Just got here, I need emotional support

What I'm going to share isn't to scare you, it's to show you how strong the human soul is.  I am a cancer survivor, Acute Myloid Leukemia...a tough one to survive, especially after getting Sepsis (which progressed immediately to septic shock), and spending a month in an induced coma, multiple organ failure on full life support.  A woman much younger than I lost her arm and leg after a much shorter battle with Sepsis...50% don't survive.  I relapsed last year, and had a stem cell transplant in May.  I know the only reason I survived the first episode, and the last, was because of the encouragement of those two beautiful human beings.  I apparently told my son (before they intubated me) I couldn't do it anymore, and he said "You have to, that's all there is to it".  My daughter was at university, lives 1,000 miles away.  My son (disabled) has been with me through every second of this, and stayed with me the entire time of the coma... his constant encouragement, support - and, yes, nagging, is why I'm here today.  Given the relationship you have with your Mother, I have no doubt if you give her the same love you have already, she will heal (if humanly possible)...but your presence through all of this is what will give her the strength she needs to survive.  I don't know where you live, but research everything you can related to her cancer and see what studies have shown to be effective insofar as alternative options, and keep asking questions.  One other thing, infection is a huge issue, so make sure she is showered every day while in or out of the hospital, it's protocol with a transplant, and I didn't have one issue with infection (they use antiseptic, very particular soap), as well as as as much excercise as she can manage...just walking anywhere is a huge help.  Love and blessings to you both!
