Tikii's Diary thingy
Just some random thoughts on myself, other people, school, vacations ect. Basically a not so private diary about my life
Bad news.....
Some of you may know that my sister has been in and out of the doctors office for the last two weeks. I belive it totals to like 6 times?
Anyway the 6th time she went the doctor set up an appointment for her in strong (the big hospital in the area) because they'd done all they could do and she still wasn't getting better.
She was diagnosed with cancer.... She's only two
specifically Nueroblastoma which is the second most common type of cancer in her age group, she has 3 tumors, Two about a mancola bead size (flat marble) in her head, one is at the front and one is at the side, both between her skull and her brain, not actually IN her brain... And then she has one about 3/4 the size of her kidney above her kidney
As of now they are planning to take a marrow sample to determain what kind of chemo they are going to put her on... They plan to put her on chemo to shrink the tumors and then just take them out.....
Depending on her reaction to the chemo they MAY have to do a marrow transplant at the end of the treatment as they think some of the cancer cells may have gotten into the marrow on one of her hips..
She'll pull through though...
Please pray for her.

    I don't know if its too late but I will pray for her. I don't want to say I know what your going through so I'm just going t ask you to pray for my Grandma. I'm very close to her and she's been in and out of the hospital twice in three weeks for periods of about 3-4 days. We found out she has ovaculin (or something like that) cancer. They removed a tumor the size of a grapefruit that was where her oval should have been (she had a historectomy which means they took out her reproductive organs about 10 years ago, so I'm not sure how she has ovalculin cancer but) She still has tiny tumors in her abdomen that they're just going to try and kill with chemo. But she was put back in the hospital because she spiked a 103.4 fever and they found out she has fluid trapped in her abdomen that have to drain....sigh...she keeps getting worse...She's only 68...that's old but...not that old......so I will pray for your sister if you pray my Granma!!!
