Good morning friends, I know people keep asking how can they help. Well you know I just got out of the hospital for 10 days. With that comes a lot of prescriptions of new medicines. My bill is well over $100 right now and I still have 4 more for them to fill. Also, I have to get my eyes checked due to blurred vision and seeing double, and of course I have no vision insurance. So anyone that would like to help out can send a few dollars through Facebook pay, cash app, or pay pal, Venmo. Anything will help. Thank you so much in advance.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. My last scans showed that the tumors in my iliac bone and my lungs have increased in size. This Friday I start a new chemo cocktail praying it works because the tumor in my iliac bone has grown. I have two fractures and a break in that bone, making it very very uncomfortable to even stand. Today home health nurse told me I need to stay in bed and not put any pressure on my leg unless I’m getting up to go to the bathroom or something important. I hate being in this bed it’s like all the time I lay here and listen to the laughter of the kids in the other room, my grandbabies playing and I just want to be with them. So Friday let you know how the new chemo is working. I guess I won’t know Friday but as soon as I know, I will let you know.

Giving all my love to all, my love ones, friends, and support I found out that the cancer has grown So most of you know I’ve been in the hospital. I found out that the cancer has grown and broke through more of the iliac bone ,making it nearly imposible to walk. I am in so much pain. They wanted me to go back into nursing home care, but unfortunately it cost to much because I have to have chemo. I don’t know or understand really the whole situation. All I know I’ve been battling the deman depression lately. Christmas is rough with not being able to help with Christmas at the church , Ive been so down about this but as not as bad as being able to buy gifts, I know everyone understands but it hurts my heart. My grandchildren deserves presents from their Nana. I’m just so a sad Nana right now. The scans came back and the news wasn’t great There has been growth of cancer in the iliac bone causing my bone to break more putting me in great pain. 2 more big lymph nodes in the neck, 3 spots on my Right lung. I’m going to keep fighting no matter what the devil throws at me. Please pray that Christmas works out. I love you all for support love and prayers

The nurse gave me this hat so I would cheer up!
