- None, right now. Bye Bye Mustang. :-(
On Tuesday, we rushed my mother to the ER by an ambulance because she had fallen in the kitchen...again. She has been feeling nauseous and dizzy for over a month, and could barely walk a straight line.
We had thought she had had a stroke, but she had refused to go to the doctor, and yes, she lives with me. The stress was terrible.
So, they took her to Mt. Carmel hospital on West Broad and did a ton of tests. The spot they found on her lung in January had moved to her neck and her brain. And diagnosed her with rapidly spreading cancer.
They took a small lump off her neck, but the one on her brain is about the size of a golf-ball. They're going to wait till Monday to operate on it to see what they can do. Then she'll need chemo and radiation, but will always feel a bit dizzy. The whole family is still kind of freaked out, but they do say she's stable for now at least.
So, if any of you have any extra karma to lend, could you send some my way?
