Amy, I am sending you a HUGE hug. I am so, so sorry to hear your latest update. Push for all the pain meds you need. In this day and age NO ONE should be in uncontrollable pain. I wish I how some words of wisdom but I don't. I will continue to keep you in my prayers. Only you know what is the right decision for you. God Bless. Wanda
