Well, yesterday was pretty CRAPPY.
I was worried about mom's visit with the Oncologist yesterday afternoon. I had the school Choral concert to attend and frankly wasn't up to being a social butterfly.
Mom's news: she is having a heart test Thursday to see if her heart can withstand the HEAVY dose of Chemo they want to give her next week. The doc she saw siad she has a very fast moving cancer and it needs to be treated immediately. If the heart test is ok, he scheduled an outpatient "port" installation. They go in just below your collar bone and open up the size of a quarter in order to give Chemo and other meds. This also allows for blood draw at later dates... The nurses told her she would lose her hair during this treatment. I am scared for her.
I couldn't sleep any last night, after getting in late from the chorus concert and then getting the phone call an hour later....I'm taking something to help me sleep tonight and getting in bed.
Again prayers are welcomed. Thank you!

Can you guess which dwarf I feel like today?
Do you see the pressure single people feel in the real dating world!
Greg is home sick today, flu like stuff. That's all I need with everything else I got going on. I just talked to him. I don't think we will see each other until the new year seriously. Maybe it's better that way~ I'm in such a FUNK with my mom...I mean I'd like the support that I think he could offer, but how do you tell someone you have just started to date that your mom was just diagnosed?
I just need a magic pill.
Why does it seem so much easier to talk to strangers via blog these days?

I hope you dont catch Greg's flu stuff! maybe your immune to it from being ill stricken already.
Maybe you should give him a chance...tell him, then your behavior might be better understood on his part. Put yourself in his shoes....just do what feels right in your heart. He sounds like a great guy, if he cant deal with your mom's life crisis, then he aint worth it.
I tagged u but if your not up to it, I understand 100%!! no problemo :)
Now, we've circled the wagons around your mother, I am certain she can feel our strength as it has come together to support her. She will make it thru this. The chemo is the hard part, it sucks but worth every second of it.
About the hair, is she a wig woman or a dew-rag lady? I am thinking a wig lady. She can have as many as she likes and have a beautiful new hairdo anyday of the week.
((hugs to you both))
Tell him. You could use the support and he may want to give it. You might feel better if you did.
I'll be at the party tomorrow night, but I won't come until late because I have to bring Olivia (no babysitter-- James in FL and sister at Christmas party for school) I'll probably come at 7:15 so I'm not there the whole time with a baby.
