Sorry, that I haven't posted any new information sooner. Our family has had another health emergency since I last posted. Brian's 85 year old mother who lives in an assisted living facility in Sidney, NE went to Denver to get a pacemaker implanted. She crashed and ended up having renal failure in which she needed temporary dialysis. In the meantime, they have found a mass on her ovary but she refuses to have more testing to determine exactly what it is. I really don't blame her, she has been through enough! All she wants to do is get back to Sidney. The medical staff feels she is safe enough to go to the Sidney hospital, but hospital won't take her. I have never heard of an acute hospital refusing to take a patient. Its a new one on me. She is entitled to her medicare coverage and Brian is still trying to negotiate her acceptance . The doctors in Aurora have already signed her release papers.
It seems God gives us only what we can handle. Brian is doing a great job trying to coordinate her care along with his siblings. He is feeling better after last chemo session. We are very hopeful that next trip to Zion will truly be his last time for a while. That his cancer has disappeared and we all can move on with our life endeavours.
Brian and I are wishing all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We thank all of you for your support and prayers which have made Brian's healing process so successful.
Love,
Mary and Brian
