another short update

Ihave been feeling horrible. The last chemo round, also the first chemo of this new one, anyways has pretty much put me under and I am really strugling to get back up, everything has taken a turn for the worse, the pain is constant, rest is not happening for more than 2 hours at a time. I am now having problems putting anything into my body and getting anything out from anywhere is a struggle. appointments are supposed to be forthcoming from my oncologist for a pain secialist, a urologist and a gi dr. I have lost complete faith in my onc. as most days I cant even get a phone call back from her office. It truly is God and me in this 24/7 I dont know what to do anymore exept to pray for sleep and less pain and to keep strength somehow,

also i appreciate norms last post but right now, i cant see visitors, it is just too tough right now, i am sorry, but i can only do the best i can.

for any of you that have tried to reach me via my cell phone, my cell phone broke over a week ago and thus i haven't gotten anything until yesterday when norm got me patched up with another phone, so i pologize if i have missed your call. if you call and dont get a answet i will try to get bavk to you, sometimes answering the phone is more than i can accomplish, just like the blog. i used to spend hours on the computer, it has been days since i have even sat down in front of it
thank you for all of your prayers,
love always,
tami

Tami I am so sorry to hear that you are feeling worse. I can understand not being up to visits and phone calls so I'll hold off on calling til you are feeling a little better. I know you would try to talk to me no matter how bad you feel and I just don't want to put you through that. We all understand and only want what's best for you right now.

I'll continue to pray for you and Norm and thanks for the update. Love, Brenda

Tami...I do not usually reply on blogs..but another blog of Shawndra Turner seems to be dealing with similar problems like yours...thought this perhaps could be of help to you...you have given me the strength to have my 1st colonoscopy this next week...you are in my prayers and I thank you for your goodness in sharing your story...love from a small town in Illinois~

Though we've never met, I think of Norm as a friend. I am sure all of us from the FL will keep you both in our prayers.
