I need some prayers and good thoughts since my mother was just diagnosed with breast cancer and we are just beginning to fight it. She goes for a PET scan tomorrow and also to an oncologist to get meds to shrink the cancer. She also has a good doctor, some friends and acquaintances have the same one and many women have kicked it with her help plus the doctors say, "don't worry, we have many ways to fight it." Many thanks to all.
So sorry to hear this, NWM. May God give you and your mother strength and comfort.
Thanks all. It is so hard on all of us plus I’m looking for work too. I might have something part-time, maybe, not sure yet in the computer field which is my career path so I have to keep that up plus be with Mom. I also most likely have Asperger’s as well, hence being very technical and into such things. Her sister is a year older and she is just as bent as I am. BTW, I also have friends helping out too, one said that if I need a place to go and start over, he’d help me, like I helped him when his mother passed. I’ll have to unload the house too.
It sounds like you have been blessed with good friends. You will do well. In the meantime, maybe some alternative treatments (such as intravenous vitamin C) will help your mom. Whatever happens, enjoy every moment with her.
It’s good to have such friends. Prayers continue for your mom and for you!
NW I am sorry to hear this. My sister got lesions on the brain and had 1 full-head radiation treatment. Problem was she delayed that for alternative treatments, as well as not wanting to know while we went on a cruise with her.
How old is your mother? Did they ever give a stage when you discovered it?
I just lost my mother a half an hour ago. I got to head out but I want to thank all of yunz for the help and support.
I am so sorry. My deepest condolences. Your mother fought hard, and you were beside her every step of the way. I’m sure she loved you for that. May she rest now in peace in the arms of the Lord. Prayers for you!
Please see post #206. Nowhere Man's mother has passed on.
Please accept my condolences. I know you will miss your Mom but know that she is being held in the Lords loving embrace.
God be with you.
I am so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you. (((HUGS)))
God bless you NWM for taking care of your mother. Praying for peace for you. FE
My sincerest condolences, NW! I am sorry for this terrible thing. You sounded like a wonderful son. So glad she had you. She will be with the Lord. Praying for your strength and comfort in these days.
I am so sorry for your loss, dear Nowhere Man and join with all the others here lifting you and all the loved ones up to God for His blessing, peace and guidance as you deal with her homegoing.
I’m sorry Nowhere Man. May our Lord comfort you as your mom dances in His presence.
It’s been five days since I lost Mom but I did have an enjoyable night with high school classmates and a teacher that showed up at a local sports bar (Primanti’s here in Pittsburgh). I miss Mom greatly and I still feel like Robin without Batman but at least it was a time to enjoy myself and and Mom would say, “get the stink blown off of me.”
I’m glad to hear you had this time with your high school classmates and teacher!
I never met your mom, but it’s evident in every post that she was a strong lady! :-) Glad you enjoyed some time with your old friends, and I’m sure your mom would be happy for you, too.
Praying.
Sincerest sympathies to you and the fam.
Losing a mom is so difficult.
Well, I’m working as seasonal help at a department store but I’m looking for better employment as time goes on. I had a few interviews too. I still miss Mom though, almost every night I cry, tonight I cried for 20 minutes, just had to let it out. BTW, I had three customers today that had the same first name as Mom. There are some family member that say go on welfare or even disability if I can get it but I really don’t like that route. Mom did not raise me that way. Sure of I got my legs crunched up or something where I can’t work, I’d do it but beyond that, no way. Just a brief update.
