Please ladies....I need Prayers

Original post by Belongs2DanBuckley

Ok I know some of you know my mom has been sick. For those of you that don't she has stage 4 lung cancer. We didn't even know until she started having strokes around May of this year. She's had about 5 in total and because of the strokes she developed a seizure disorder. (The cancer was causing the strokes). She's been through hell and was getting better....

This morning my mom had a seizure (her first one since august) and fell and hit her head in the bathroom. She was rushed to the ER and had another one while they were giving her a CAT scan. I, of course, forgot my cell phone today at home and didn't even find out until around 12:45. She's at the hospital right now and will be there for the next few days. We don't know if she had another stroke, but it looks like it might just be a seizure. I really hope it wasn't. As of now she seems fine, just tired and groggy. She's got a nice gash on the back of her head though from where she fell and its pretty swollen. I really hope she's ok.

She's made so much progress these last few months. It hasn;t been easy for her. My mom was a very strong, independant woman who basically ran our whole family. To put it into perspective, she is just learning how to count and write her name again. Aside from going through physica, occupational and speech therapy, multiple rounds of Chemo, finishing, now going through Radiation every day for the past 6 weeks with 2 more weeks to go....this happens....

I'm sorry this is so long. I'm more venting than anything else, but I would really like all of you to pray for her. Please.

Thanks Ladies, thanks for listening. God bless you all. Talk to you soon

Re: Please ladies....I need Prayers***UPDATE***

Seriously, I cannot even explain the gratitude I feel. You all have been so wonderful with your prayers and concerns. I'm very thankful to have made friends with such caring people. Thanks everyone again so much. Please keep the prayers coming.

She's doing much better. I just spoke to my father and so far no sign of a stroke. She had radiation today and she did well with that. She's supposedly getting physical therapy later on this afternoon so they obviously feel that she's in a much better state than yesterday.

Again, from the bottom of my heart....THANK YOU!!!!!

I'm so glad to hear that Jess. I can not even begin to imagine what kind of stress you have been feeling lately. Thank God for your FH and MOH, it sounds like you have quite a great support group going on. Many for your mom's speedy recovery!
