update

Just heard from my mom, she had just gotten back home 9:30pm my time.  Which is like 7:30pm her time. Her appointment was at noon!  The place is two hours away which means they left the cityfor home at 5:30pm.  She was at the doctor's for 5 and a half hours!!  That is just ridiculous! She said they "lost" the order from the doctor for her tests.  I am so frustrated with the medical community, it seems like everywhere she goes there are problems.  Now she has to wait 4 days for the results.

Waiting...

It seems like half my life is spent just waiting.  My mom called this morning because she has some appointments at the cancer clinic this afternoon.  More tests.  She won't have any answers today though, the doctor said they will phone her August 4th and let her know what's going on.  Hurry up and wait, right?

She hasn't been feeling very well lately.  She has been on morphine for the past two years to manage the pain but the past month of so it hasn't been helping at all.  She says it doesn't take away any of the pain at all anymore, so she has been to the hospital four times this past week.  They don't help either, they just increased her morphine twice, which she said still isn't helping the pain, and now she is so loopy from the morphine she can't even have a conversation anymore.
