My mom is “Okay” if you want to call it that. She told me that I don’t understand what she is going through, and I don’t. If you saw her it is a sad story. My mom told me she wants to take a two hour nap just after driving me to church and back. My mom says she misses her parents because when my brother and I were at school she would still have company and now she doesn’t. I feel sorry for her. I don’t know what to do, but I HATE seeing her like this! I HATED when she had her last cancer and when I found out about both of them! ARGH! I WANT MY MOMMY BACK TO NORMAL! I’m not trying to say that my life is sad and everyone should feel sorry for our family. I mean I know there is other people that have worse things happening. My friend’s cousin got in a fight, with words, with my friend about how sad my family is compared to my friend’s cousin’s friend. His friend has down syndrome. That is worse, but in some cases they’re the same and in other cases lung cancer is worse. every one just has different opinions! So that is a kind of update, but confusing, I know.

My mom is really tired, so she told me to write this for her in my blog.

There is this 21 year old guy named Kyle and his mom is named Mary. Kyle has a type of cancer and he isn’t doing very well. His skin is bright yellow and pale at the same time. He has about 5 doctors around him at all times. Mary just says by him and watches her son slowly die. Imagine you watching your kid for about (at this very moment) 30 days straight! If you are to young to have kids and/or you aren’t married picture when you have a kid watching him/her die and you can’t do anything but pray.

The statistics on Kyle say he will die. Kyle’s family we hope through this situation will meet Jesus Christ and not listen to the statistics. Now go back to you picturing you watching you kid die with cancer, but this time you can’t help him at all because you don’t know Jesus Christ yet. Wouldn’t that be hard!

Please pray for this family to meet Jesus Christ and that Kyle will get better. My mom is making Mary a gift bag with things that will hopefully help her relax. Please pray for this family! Thank you for reading and please read my next bog entry (I wonder what it will be about that time)! Bye!

My mom is almost famous! Because of this cancer a ot of people that she doesn’t even know has heard about her, read her blog, or accidentally found out about her from the wrong thing on google. A lot of people have been on Ellen or Oprah from things like this! Also a lot of people look up to my mom and think of her of an insperation. My mom is the greatest even though she has this new type of cancer.

My mom isn’t just and insperation and a role model to other people, but also me! I am proud to have a great Christian, survivor, faithful person, easy to talk to, role model, funniest, insperational, awesome, (and what my friends say) the best and coolest mom ever as my mom!

So my mom should be on Ellen or Oprah! If you find out how to get her on tell me! Wait! I have another idea…she should write a book and have part of me to write it so we will both be famous! Not trying to be selfish or anything! LOL (laughing out loud)!

Thank you for reading my blog! Keep reading new posts!

My mom finished her first cycle of chemo yesterday! She is a fighter, but now the side effects are coming in. My mom is very tired, kind of dizzy and sick. It is going to get worse everyday. Her hair going to fall out and more things is going to happen. As I said in my first blog entry….Cancer Sucks! The only thing that is good about cancer in my family is that we get closer to God and our family gets closer.

Last cancer we barely knew anyone around here that could help our family to get through it. This time my family will literally be turning down people who want to bring us dinner! If you are one of our secret “angels” and we don’t know it or you have helped us THANK YOU!
Okay I don’t know how this entry got from side effects to secret “angels”, but I am still putting this entry under the category of cancer. Thank you for reading!

About 3-4 years ago my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was pretty hard on my family because we didn’t know what to expect. It took 8 cycles of chemo (chemotherapy) and then radiation after that. Before the chemo and radiation my mom had 3 surgeries. From the chemo my mom had terrible side effects including: metal taste in her mouth, heat flashes, forgets things easily (chemo brain), hair loss, and gained 20 pounds. I think there was more side effects, but at this moment I can’t remember. Then every year since she was diagnosed she had to have tests to see if her cancer spread.

When she got her tests results this year they found spots on her lung. The doctor said they should do a biopsy to check if it was cancer.  The first attempt to do the biopsy didn’t work for some reason (I was at a musical rehearsal and don’t know why.). They did the actual biopsy about 1-2 weeks ago. The doctor said the spots were nothing he has ever seen before. The spots were glowing! The doctor was suppose to call with the results on July 3rd. Instead the nurse called in the morning and told her to meet him. My mom saw the doctor.

The doctor came in with good news! He said that the breast cancer didn’t spread! Then came the bad news. He said my mom has LUNG CANCER! The kind of lung cancer my mom has is aggressive. It sounds bad, but isn’t that bad. It starts aggressive, but it also dies as aggressive as it started. The really good thing is that they caught it at an early stage of the cancer! The doctor then told her that the earlier they start her treatments the better. (This kind of cancer you need 6 cycles of chemo. 3 days in a row in 1 week, then 2 weeks off. If radiation needed I think they do it with the chemo.) My mom told him that she couldn’t do it the week of July 6th-12th, because of it’s my tech week and dress rehearsal for my Willy Wonka Jr. play. (I star as Veruca Salt. ((the brat)) I LOVE MY MOM!) So she starts her chemo on July 15th.

Personally I think my mom got the cancer because Satan is still trying to test our family to see if no matter what we will love God. SORRY SATAN, BUT WE WILL NEVER FALL FOR YOUR TRICK!! WE ARE A TOUGH FAMILY!! If Satan doesn’t give you tough trails to go be scared. That means Satan isn’t worried that you will follow God and not him. My Great Grandma Sam used to say that.

Okay I hope you keep reading my blog! Check in to see how my family is doing!
