She still gets a little dizzy but the vomiting has stopped. The heat here is keeping her inside. It is about 95 everyday with incredibly levels of humidity. Mom has a lot of stuff going on next week so I hope she will be feeling even better. She still coaches the high school's cheer team and she has try-outs, camp and the t-shirt tie dying party. She is supposed to have another on aug. 8th. She had a ct today to check and see how the chemo is working. We are going to see what it says then make some decisions. I have tried to get mom in with her old ent but he won't see her because she went to hopkins for her surgery. She says she doesn't trust the doc at hopkins now because he obviously didn't treat her as aggressivly as he should have (not doing the neck disection or doing chemo back in october didn't even do the free flap). I'll let you guys know when we get the results and where we are going to go from there.
Lost my mother, Minnie, to Oral Cancer October 29th, 2008. I am so thankful she had the OCF to help her through her five year struggle. |
