rogfam Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Please pray for my mom. She had her last chemo on friday and now she's in a lot of pain. Her joints ache so bad, a lot worse in her hips, knees. I know He hears and answers our prayers, sometimes not right when we think He should, but His timing is different than ours, but is always for the best. Thank you so much Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryanne Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 My husband found the pain comes 3 days after chemo. it effects his legs really bad. This could last for 2 to 7 days. His first chemo, it only lasted 2 days. His last was pretty long about 6 days. But then it is gone and he feels fine, just kinda fatigued. I sympthaize with you mom as the pain does hurt. Joel felt like he was getting the flu. But assure your mom that it will pass. Take care you are a terrific daughter. Maryanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cindi o'h Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 yep, Christy. with the same chemos as your Mom, I got those awful pains too. It is somewhat flu-like (only worse) like Marianne's Joel says. Fortunately, this will pass. Prayers on the way for some fast relief for your Mom. Cindi o'h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogfam Posted May 24, 2005 Author Share Posted May 24, 2005 Have I told ya lately how awesome you all are??? Prayers are what matter the most in this, right along with the faith and hope. I told mom about the water, but she already knew and is water logged! lol She drank ten glasses yesterday, 80 oz! (and had already had six when I called her earlier.) yes, the pain lasts longer each time, and each time has gotten a little worse too... lasts bout 8 or 9 days now. Then she's mostly just very tired. Thank you ALL from the bottom of my heart and my mom thanks you too! Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calintay Posted May 24, 2005 Share Posted May 24, 2005 Many prayers for your mom to heal quickly after this chemo! That the pain will go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogfam Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 thank you so much for the prayers. mom is feeling better now. She's just very tired. My twelve year old daughter Rachel spent a few nights with her, which was good for them both, and they went shopping. They had a blast, but mom probably over did it a little bit. ((hugs)) and prayers for you all! Christy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cindi o'h Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Christy, I just wanted to tell you what a beautiful picture of the two of you... and your Mom is really a pretty woman. Who could ever guess that she is ill?? Prayers for health and wellness for your Mom continue. Cindi o'h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogfam Posted May 30, 2005 Author Share Posted May 30, 2005 ((hugs)) for cindi! thank you so much. yes, my mom is a beautiful woman, inside and out. she hides it well, doesn't she? and with that spunky new hair do, she looks so cute!
