I first want to thank every one for responding to my prayer request.
It means so much to me to know there are others in prayer for my mama.
I know that my Abba Father is in control of this. No doubt! I want my mama to live. but, I know that God knows best. And that I will see her again, in a better place, and happiness will once again grace her face.

they called me this morning to start the radiation treatment.
The Doctor took me in to her office while mama was getting the treatment and explained what we were looking at. She told me that mama is terminal ill. She will not recover. The cancer is a stage 4, and it is small cell. Which means it grows raptly and it is aggressive. Last month after they had done treatment on her lung they had taken an cat scan. It did not show up then. which means it is very very aggressive.
what they hope for with this radiation is to shrink the tumors, most liking
more will grow before are right after treatment. the tumors causes swelling in the brain which cause massive heads in the end. If they can not at least slow the growth of these tumors with in a few months she will begin to loose touch with reality. So the treatments are only to slow down the process.
The cancer is in her blood, which means there could be cancer all through her body. They intend to do a full body scan of her after the treatments.
If there is no cancer in other parts of her body she may live 6 to 12 month

With each cancer find it cuts her time.

She is better today. Because her son will be here tomorrow.
What she does not know is he is coming so that we can give the information that I just told you about tomorrow. They is a part of me that does not want to tell her. It is cold and hard news to deliver to her.
But, she also as the right to "put her house in order"

I would like to say this to, as I have said over and over in mind a thousand times I do not want to lose my mother. I also love her enough to not want her to suffer what she most likely will. She will not know her family or any thing going on around her.

For as long as I can remember she has always said, she does not want to live if she is in a vegtible state, or that she will not know her children.
If there is no hope, that she will recover let her go in peace.

I intend to keep her wises. I have heard this from her all my life.
right now I do not know what the will of God is? So I will hope and wait for his call. I will follow his will to the letter. but, for now i will hope that his will would be for her to be a testimony to the world. That God lives and is alive.

The prayer request that I have tonight is that in his great mercy that if she must go through this and not recover, that he take her before she does not know her children. That's it, that all I ask. *Pray*


thank you all again for your prayers. I wish I could express how much they have meant to me.

Your sister in Jesus Christ

Sandra what you share is oh so familiar...everything you shared is everything we faced with my uncle...what I will share is that we made my uncle as comfy as possible and allowed him to do whatever he wanted while he was still able...one thing he went through was being hungry and eating constantly in the final days before he was unable to know or do anything...so we bought him all his favorite foods...it was a time to allow him life's final pleasures...and it is now a good memory...

May God's will be done for your mom...He knows what is best in all things.

Praying for you.

luv ya
