    We went to see Lion King. Mom always loved that show. We all did pretty good but I think there was just so much going on.

    I hope you don't mind but I'm trying my hand at keeping Mary's trip reports alive and we have been saying our final goodbyes to her. I guess they will never be final but here's the link to the first two days. I try to read some of the posts here every so often, but to be honest I cry so fast...

    Good afternoon, As many of you know Mary has been sick for quite some time. She succumbed to her illness this morning and is now at peace. I thank you all for reaching out to Mary over the years. You all meant so very much to her. I honestly didn't know that Ma, I loved calling her "Ma", had...

    My dear friends. I only have a few days more. My skin has turned yellow which means my liver had started to shut down. I have a hospital bed in my room. I have to ask Chuck or Karen to get up at all. I am ready to go believe me. I have had such a good life and so many blessings and such...

    What great ideas. I was thinking of streaks of pink and blue, Mickey lime green, and the blue and purple with glitter all over. Whacha think? LOL Chuck is going to bring my laptop upstairs for me so I don't have to go up and down the stairs. Seriously for a moment, I know my days are...

    Hello my friends. I just wanted to give you an update. The aid comes 3 times a week to help me shower and either make my bed or today she changed the sheets. The nurse comes to make sure I am doing what I need to do and take my blood pressure and listen to my heart. I have retained so much...

    Thank you planogirl. I'm afraid this helplessness is permanent. It just keeps getting worse. Every day it's something else I need help with. Chuck and Karen are so wonderful and do whatever they can with jokes and laughter for me. I an taking my pain pills as ordered AnnS. Now I am...

    I really like my nurse the aid and the PT. I had the aid come today and she gave me my shower. Now I can certainly do this myself, but oh, it felt so much better with her doing it. She helped me get back into my jammies after putting on my lotion. After she helped me put on my slippers, she...

    Thank you macraven, Grumpy's Gal and minnie56. I just have to accept that this is the new me, not the woman I was 5 years ago. It's hard to accept that I nee so much help these days. You have no idea what my Karen does for me. Some of it is disgusting that it makes me cry to see what she has...

    Hi minnie56. I am doing about the same. I am going to the doctor tomorrow to see if she can help with the tumors where they are. Makes it difficult to sit and I am so tired of the bleeding. It's not much, just enough to be annoying. I get tired very easily now and going up the stairs is an...

    Thank you rndmr2. Yes I know my potassium level was in the basement. I have been eating more broccoli and spinach, and I do feel better but I am still so bloated. I'm going to my surgeon next Thursday for another issue and maybe she can help with this problem also. Yes I do have so many...
