And so it goes…

I guess I knew it was gonna happen. I didn’t want to admit it. I still don’t. I want it to all go away and pretend everything is going to be ok.

My mother called me yesterday to tell me that my aunt was told a week ago that the last bout of chemo didn’t work, and there is nothing more that they can do about it. She has only weeks.

My sister works for a hospital in Washington that can do a pin-point laser surgery to destroy the tumor and not touch the surounding tissue. My aunt is looking into it, if this doesn’t work, I will loose my most favorite aunt.

Please say a prayer for her. She is a good woman, worked hard all her life, is good to everyone who walks thru her door, a great mother, grandmother, and aunt. She deserves to have a long and happy life and to see her kids (all of them) finish growing up, marrying, and have children of thier own. She deserves to die of natural causes, not be taken out by cancer.

To my aunt, I’d like to say, I love you. You are a great woman and a fantastic aunt. You are an insperation to me. You will forever be my favorite aunt.

I hate thinking about this. It makes me sick to my stomache. I have lost so many people in my family to cancer I want to scream “HAVEN’T YOU TAKEN ENOUGH FROM ME?” I need to take some painkillers. My head is pounding.
