Hi -I have been lurking around in the background for a while. Keeping up with the posts etc.-just have not been contributing much. I have been a little more LOST than usual.Paul is doing well since they put him on a new med. and stopped the daily laxatives.(well for AD) He has been on it for two weeks so I am still not sure it will keep the ammonia level down,but we are hopeful. They also decreased his Depakote even more hoping to stop the damage to the live for becoming worse. During this time I have been dealing with other things as well.My only sister has been having multiple testing done on her lungs. Well yesterday we got the results and they were not good-fairly certain there is a cancer in the left lung . Now more waiting to see what and when the drs.want to do. So just more worry and even guilt that I am letting her down when she needs me most. But with Paul I can not take on that kind of care that she will need. She has a son that will step in but it will be hard since he has to work. Sorry to air more family troubles -thanks for listening.
I am so sorry for the hard load you are carrying and for your sister. No, you can't take on anymore burdens. You have all you can do and more. Prayers for strength for you all. And lots of hugs.
Hi Betty, I am so sorry to hear about your sister. You have so much on your plate & now this. I know how difficult it is when you want to help but you just can't. I'll pray for your sister & for you too. (((HUGS)))!
Hi Betty I too ask sorry to hear about your sister, and hope they found it in time. Each day I look at my departed sister Dianna's photo, it will be one year July 16th since she left us. I miss her SO SO much, she was the best support system one could ever ask for.
Glad that Paul may be doing better on his new meds. Please tell him aloha from Coconut Patty. It was so nice to see you writing her today, I love your dear friend.
