Thank you all so much for the responses. They really help my mom relax because I relay everything you guys tell me.

Minnie, I know that she won't be the same but I think its just a matter of will she be even close because right now she is nowhere near the person she once was. She swears a lot more about this f****** diesese and rarely smiles which is so different than she ever was. She grew up a preachers daughter and is a far better person than I could ever hope to be. It kills me to see her like this. She's even made comments that if she has to live with all this pain that she doesn't want to live. I have suggested anti depressants but she wouldn't hear of it. It was even difficult to get her to take the pain medication because she didn't like the feeling of being medicated.

I will definately keep you guys posted after her appointment on Thursday. My sister and I are full of ????'s for her doctor and I'm definately going to work on getting her to eat more.

Thank you all!
Dani
