Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Hi Jen, please tell your Mom she's been in my thoughts and prayers. You too. Please try to take care of yourself, too, when you can. You need your strength so that you can be there for your Mom. Give her a hug for me, ok?

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

More prayers and positive energy and hugs and love for Sheila. Im glad to hear she has been able to return home. Lets keep this prayer chain going and going...Being in the hospital is exhausting. Now that she is home, I hope she is able to be comfortable, rest and get some strength back.

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Praying for and loving you both.

Talked to Mom tonight she sounded a little better she is resting at home. Nancy I received your card in the mail today. God bless you too and you're welcome I will get the card to her as soon as I can.

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Jen,
Is there an address (yours/your mom's) that we can send cards to?
If so, please post and we will flood the mail.

My heart really breaks tonight for my Mom, Sheila. I want her to get better but I can't stand to see her suffering. Please continue to keep her and her family in your prayers and pray for Jazzy too because she broke her rod and needs surgery~Thanks Jennifer

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

I am praying Jen. I'm so sorry you are all going through such a difficult time. Having had cancer and losing loved ones to cancer, I do now how you feel. It's hard. Watching our loved ones suffer is the worst. I don't know what to say. Only that I will pray. Praying peace and comfort for you all. I'm sorry this is happening. My heart is sad and I just don't know what to say.

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Jasmine said to me a couple days ago "I hope Grandma doesn't give up on me" it broke my heart. Jasmine has developmental delays and is handicapped she has known Grandma all her life and Grandma has been there with us thru surgeries and hospitalizations.... What am I suppose to tell her? She asked me today if it was her fault Grandma had cancer. I explained to her that it was no ones fault that Grandma has cancer. I just wish my Mom would get better and be the Mom I have knew.... Sorry I just had to vent a little.... This is really hitting me hard and I know you guys will understand as my Mom Sheila would understand as she lost her own Mother to cancer a couple years ago almost.

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Dear Jen,

I understand oh so well. We need to vent....we need to say, "it's not fair"...."why her"...."I want life as I know it back"...and many other things that go through our minds.

Know that I care and know that my prayers are with you.

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

I feel bad for venting as I don't have cancer but I would trade places with Mom if it would save her..

Re: Prayers needed for Sheila
 

Jen,
Please don't apologize for venting. We all understand the pressure you are under.

You may not have cancer, that's true...but you're having to stand by and watch cancer drag your mom down, helpless to stop it. I lived that with my own mom a few years ago...and it's every bit as hard as having cancer yourself...believe me.

I hope all the love and prayers we're sending to you and to Sheila are a comfort. And, of course...I'm praying for Jazzy too.
