Hey everyone - hope all is well with you guys. Sorry I haven't posted in a while. . . these last two weeks have been so hectic. Mom had some problems with some terrible headaches. .. ended up in the ER for a catscan and blood work and today Dad is kinda feeling under the weather as well. The headaches for mom lasted over a week. . . but have seemed to subside for mom - they have ruled out anything serious and she has been nursing them with Aleve per the doctors orders. Yesterday I took mom for a follow up on her Bone Marrow test and we received great news that the test did not indicate any kind of cancer or other serious disease, but that her abnormal blood count at this time is unexplainable or attached to anything of great concern. We will continue to see Dr. Jones every six months to monitor her blood disease and make sure that nothing changes. In the midst of all the headaches, she had an EKG and they heard a new heart murmur. She will see her heart doctor - Dr. Skyles on June 11th for a followup on this. Dr. R thinks at this time it is "innocent." Now on to dad, he started feeling under the weather last night. He is sick to his stomach. I took him for his regular INR blood level test and he threw up on the way there, on the way back and when we got him into his chair. He hasn't really had an appetite for the past 24 hours either. . . but I was still able to generate some laughter from him here and there!
Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with dad's sister-n-law Kelly and Uncle Calvin. Aunt Kelly has had her first round of Chemo, and another is schedule the first of June. We are believing for the best for them!
