    Mrs KP, you and your family will remain in my prayers. I hope between her friends willing to fundraise and ACS the financials will be taken care. I wish I was working, I'd be very happy to send a contribution.

    Thank you for wanting to help Kath...her friends in her hometown are putting together some fundraisers to help. If her insurance covers her meds the monies raised will be given to the local cancer society to help others.

    Anyone wanting to make contribution, please give to one of your local chapters to help someone in your area that might be going through this.

    Thanks again!

    Update:

    Sister had a check up .... her heart is doing better and they've cut back on her meds.

    Her cancer has slowed and the side effects of the chemo are tolerable.

    Her oldest daughter gave her a new grandchild last month so she's got something to keep her spirits up.

    Our biggest challenge now is with the insurance .... they don't want to pay for the medication ... which is ungodly expensive.

    I want to thank everyone again for all the support and prayers.

    I'll be thinking and praying for her, you and your family NV .... to ease her pain and to hope she'll be comfortable, loved and recognize you.

    Take care,

    Wow, I missed this until now.

    Keep your chin up, MKP... I know from experience it's damned hard but being there for her is the most important thing.

    I'm so sorry, I missed this. Those little strokes, (TIA's) usually don't cause much damage, at least that's what we found with my mom. She had 2 larger ones though, that caused language retrieval problems and for awhile, some paralysis. Rehab did a lot! She's in my prayers.
