Cancer Support and Caregivers Who Are Trail Blazers!

TruTexan · 02-08-2014, 09:21 AM

A huge thank you to all of you here in the thread for your kind words of support and wisdom. They helped me to remain positive and cope well until the outcome of my tests came back. I appreciate each and every one of you. Each of you are Rocks of Gibraltar in your own journey. Thank you again.

Well, when it rains it pours.....or in our case when it snows it pours. In the midst of 55 inches of snow descending on us blow after blow. My sponsee readys herself for surgery on February 27 and all that is great, they will do the lumpectomy and the breast reduction, take her sentinel node and do the pathology right in the surgical suite and it's going to be fine I'm sure. What we weren't prepared for was the phone call about her brother who contracted 2 forms of viral pneumonia, the H1N1 and Virus A on top of which he has emphysema and COPD. He was taken into the hospital and medically paralized and sedated which caused him to have cardiac arrest. It's been a very stressful time. He is in the infectious ward and we all have to gown up to visit with him. My sponsee's sister and nephew flew up and stayed with me. It's been really intense. I am worried that my sponsee might contract something while she is preparing for her own procedure. Today they preformed a tracheotomy and put in a feeding tube. I feel like we are buying a little time with this. I really don't want my sponsee to have to face the death of her brother the week of her surgery. I am hoping for the best, but I am aware it is out of my hands.
Thank you all for being here. I'm excited for all the good news I've read in this thread recently!!

I'm leaving in a few minutes to go pick up my sponsee, today is her surgery. I didn't think I was nervous, but I couldn't get to sleep last night and 4:30 am came much earlier than you might expect, it was earlier than I expected for sure. Everything will be fine, but I do appreciate all the support here, your prayers and well wishes mean so much. Oh, on the very happy news side of the world, my sponsee's brother breathed on his own for 8 hours yesterday and is surprising all of us with his consistent improvement. Thank you again, Sherrie

LR you surely have a lot on your plate--but having met you in person and reading your book I know you are a rock for your sponsee--she is so lucky to have you by her side. Sending good energy for you, your sponsee and her brother. Jeano
