Mom talked to her doctor today. She now understands she has cancer and that it's terminal. She's been diagnosed with stage 4 uterine cancer; we won't know her doubling rate till she talks to her Oncologist, hopefully on Monday. She took it hard, like anyone would, but I think/hope she understands its not about how much time is left, but about what she does with it. Her doctor said it's untreatable at this point, but we are still researching options to keep her comfortable and as healthy as possible. Others have beat the odds and perhaps she will too. It's in God's hands and only time will tell. Mom is learning how many people love her and are there to support her. She said she didn't know she had so many friends. Printed on the walls of the nursing home where she's recovering from surgery there are a number of quotes; I was asked to share one of her favorites:
Every day holds a possibility of a miracle.
I would like to thank everyone for their concern and support through this difficult challenge. Though the future is uncertain, the sun has yet to set and we will savour the golden rays of sunlight for as long as they grace the sky.
