7th Round this week

How is everyone? Good, I hope. Sorry for the delay in posting. I was at the lake with Mom from May 28th until June 6th. The internet connection was acting up and I couldn't update the blog. It was so good to be able to spend some time with Mom. Unfortunately, Mom's leg has been causing her extreme discomfort. As some of you may know, cancer spread to her leg/pelvic area and caused a fracture. The leg caused her extreme pain at first, but the doctors were able to get the pain under control. That has changed over the past few weeks. We are not sure if Mom is experiencing more pain due to the leg getting worse or if the fact that the doctor decreased her daily dosage of steriods has caused her to feel the pain more. She has mentioned the pain to her doctor and has been trying to manage the pain with medicine; however, Mom can barely do anything. Hopefully, she will get some relief and some answers soon. She goes for her 7th round of chemo this Thursday. Other than the leg pain, Mom is doing really well. She still has her hair (I mention it because people usually wonder) and her energy is pretty good. She looks good. She says she feel good other than the leg pain. I cannot believe that it has been almost 5 months since her diagnosis. Her outlook remains positive. Thank you all for being there. You make such a difference. Much love to you all. God Bless!
