Thanks Maureen and Paul


Because of this open wound in her neck I brought my mom in to see the Surgeon today . The doctor was very upset to see this happening but said there is nothing he can do to heal it . He said it's bad tissue and a skin graph would never mend .

The doctor did advise us to use this 5FU cream around the open wound and just maybe it may help to slow it from spreading bigger. I told my mom she is gonna have to try and tolerate as much as she can .

I've had people tell me that I need to come to terms on what's happening here . I do realize but I have to keep trying . I'm not about to give up .
