MOM:)

So as many may know, the biggest thing in my life now is that my mom has a cancerous glioblastoma brain tumor that she was diagnosed with in Oct. My dad said she had been not herself for about two months, ever since school started, sleeping all the time, and her balance started getting a little off. Grandma went up to Riverton in September and noticed her balance and thought something was up then. She was late for school alot and wouldnt write my brother an excuse. One day at school she was late, and was disorganized, disoriented and confused and had fallen on a couple occasions including a nature walk with the students and maybe once in the classroom. Cheryl Mowry( the principal) had called my dad and dad said not to let her drive he would be there. I guess that morning she ripped the grill guard off the truck and didnt realize it. So he took her to the emergency room and they gave her some dramamine or benadryl told her it was post viral go get the prescription and shed be fine in a couple days. Well the next day she had to come home, and dad called billings and brought her up the day after that. They did and MRI to find she had a tumor, and they would follow up with another MRI on Tuesday(That was thursday) and a biopsy wednesday to see what the deal was. Tuesday they took her in, marked the spot to go in for the biopsy, and wednesday came. They had a millimeter to work with for spot reasons of the tumor. they came out and basically told my dad it was terminal, there was nothing they could do and as far as being cancerous they didnt know, but it wasnt good. If it wasnt, it would be very treatable. And we were hoping for the best, she was a very healthy lady. However it came back it was cancerous, and they started 6 weeks of chemo/radiation combo and they went to bozeman where my aunt lives, which was so nice. Grandma went to Riverton to take care of TJ and I cannot thank the people in Riverton ENOUGH for everything I know they have done. Belvilles, Salisburys, and Mr. Watson and his fam and Mike and Carolyn, just to name a few. Also everyone in Ord for the prayers cards and phone calls, Even All those that were close to dad in Spalding and everywhere in between. She is now done with the 2nd round of chemo and has an MRI today. The tumor has grown and shes had some bad days, but we are still keeping strong faith just like mom is. My grandma would also like to thank everyone in Riverton for being so generous to help her out whenever need be. She tells everyone here in crawford what a wonderful community and friends my parents have made just in 3 years. Anyways, We are still praying and keeping strong faith that something will happen positively, however we dont want mom to suffer so we arent gonna make her just to keep her here. The positive side is she is not in pain, not sick and is surrounded by love and care and my dad has been soooo sooo good to her, all this has made me feel so bad for dad mostly, but its also made me know that he is 100 times the guy I always knew he was anyways, and I love him maybe even a lot more now then I even did before, I know I dont say it, but Im like him. As far as MOM, I do love my MOM, always have, we havent been close, but MOM and I are fine, moving on from the small things and I know she is an amazing lady thats touched many many lives in a positive way and so has dad. I talk to Michelle every other day, and I know she really liked my mom and MOM made a big impact on her life and many others, I have become pretty good buds with Chris because we have the same friends in Chadron and also because him and my mom liked each other alot as well. So anyways she has an MRI today and There will certainly be more to come of this blog. I will do my best to keep updated.
