My mom got the final drain out today, plus a finalized pathology report. It was exactly the same as the unofficial one the dr told us on Monday.
Awesomeness.You guys, my kid has been transformed into U2 fangirlydom. Why?
1. She requested Elevation. I'm uploading the video now
2. She wanted to have cake with Bono on his birthday
3. She said when she goes to bed she is going to dream of Elevation
4. She requested Zoo TV DVD over NickJr.
5. She sings 'HE moves in Mysterious Ways' because it's Bono.
I swear this is only slightly my doing. And this is all today.
Okay, video is on my Facebook
That's such great news, Tara, so thrilled for you guys!!!!!
Poor Camille, hope she's feeling better soon!
Grace, that's so cute. I'd post Wild and Jem's Bono bd cake from Chicago in '05 for inspiration, but I can't remember my PB password.
My mom had an appt with her doctor today. It was for 9:30. I told work I should be in around 11. They were running so behind (and he also sent her for an unexpected xray) I didn't get to work till 3.
He said it's too soon to tell if the drug is working, but that she was no worse, which is a good thing, and he remains hopeful it will work. She was tired today from being up early and the appointment, but for the past few days, she has seemed a little better, more energetic. So, fingers crossed. We take her back in 4 weeks.
Tara -
I'm glad your mom seems better. Fingers crossed the medication works!
Thanks!
I laughed at you being tired out from your mom and her friends and all the kids.
The oncologist today (who had been treating her for nearly 4 years and who I adore) said nothing different from what he said a few weeks ago - the medication may work, there is hope, we need time to know. And yet, last time, she was hospitalized here, and those doctors and nurses started talking like there's no hope, started talking palliative care, etc. Um, FUCK YOU...she's still alive, she doesn't need that yet. It was really nice to hear her oncologist, the one who is actually in a position to KNOW, confirm that today.
VP - you could always post it in here instead
*snerk* Even if he didn't, I think it's funny
Thanks for all the well wishes for Camille everyone. She's feeling a little better.
Sending s to all you and your families who need them too.
