Me And My Cancer Adventure

Not open for further replies.
Dearest Froggie, What a warrior you are, battling your cancer.

I had a friend who went though cancer. She and her daughter used to play this game of Mom's OK. It's just pneumonia. Mom, my dear friend, played along not wanting to distress her daughter.

One day I was visiting and her daughter needed to go home for a few hours. She had been with her mother 8 or 10 days straight. I said I'd stay so she left in a good frame of mind. I took one good look at my friend Annie. I could tell from her position and the anguish on her face that she was in pain. I asked her and at first she denighed it. I asked her to tell me the truth. My Annie was a real straight talker. She hung her head but didn't answer. I asked again. Yes, she was in excruciating pain and had been for weeks. I called her nurse who asked the required questions and hooked her up to the prescribed morphine Annie needed. Her daughter was furious with me. "Did I hook her up?" NO, I calmly explained that Annie had been in pain a long time but didn't want her to know.

The point of this is we will always love you. Please don't ever be afraid of telling us what is going on with you. We will never abandon you. What ever the outcome of your battle, you win.
 
Well at least you have an excuse AND are in the correct month. I had the kitchen calendar turned to February apparently since it was taken out of the box. It was discovered last week when an appointment needed to be written in for the 31st... .

There's a bright side to everything, Froggie! :happy:

I was blessed to have that happen yesterday. That was why I needed to go to be around those who really know me. My doctor tried to call me but my phone pooped out. sigh

My doctor is coming today.

Bless you all for sharing how you care. Froggie, you are so blessed to have people that love you and take care of you. You are loved. Thank you for allowing me to see how it's suppose to be done.
