Needing my bloggie peeps...TEARS


As of last week, my father’s blockages have significantly gotten worse, along with not being able to eat, sleep, etc. - for weeks now.

I just received a call that my father is in severe pain and is being transferred to a hospital a few hours away that can better meet his current needs.  I was also informed that recent test results show the radiation and chemo he went through not long ago did NOT help and that his cancer is actually worse than even my father or our family realized. Ugh.

I'm sobbing at my desk and would appreciate your thoughts and prayers to get through this work day.

Thank you.

Sophia

  6. My father suffered for 20 with Systemic scleroderma before he passed away. While I don't know EXACTLY how you feel, I know what it's like to watch someone you love suffer and not be able to anything about it. To be told someone you care so much about is dying and thinking "is this really my life? This type of thing happens to other people...not me." I also know what it's like to spend every extra minute you have, in the hospital and to have people tell you when you can and cannot see your father and when Your father is on so much pain meds and still crying from the pain and wishing you could do something. Or trying to explain why he can't leave or seeing how lonely they are. I'm so sorry your having to go through this. My religion and faith are what got me through my hard time. (I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. www.lds.org) Not sure if this helps but sometimes just knowing that someone else has gone through a similar experience or understands your pain helps. I hope you have the best day possible and know that you are not alone.

  10. Sending love and prayers your way! Hoping they keep your dad as comfortable as possible. I understand this pain, and have tears of empathy as I read your post. I am so sorry for your pain and your fathers suffering, big cyber hugs to both of you! Wish I could be a shoulder you cry on, this is so difficult to deal with alone. You can email me anytime you need to vent....I have been through it with both parents!

    Love and hugs Sherrie
