In God's Hands... Posted 3 months ago

So that's the news...All the doctor could really tell us is that my Gran is in God's hands now.

The mass is a glioma which is located on the pans just at the base of the skull next to the spinal cord. It is like the hard drive of the computer. That is why she can't swallow, can't walk and her speech is like an old drunk...(She would laugh at that, otherwise I wouldn't have put it that way.)

We are now waiting on a PET scan to help with staging. From there we will decide whether or not to go foward with radiation. The best they can say is up that we could possible have six more months with therapy.

So that's it. I've devised a schedule to be with her five days a week. And I'll soak up every smile, laugh, joke and cursing I can get. I've never gotten more satisfaction from one more day than I have this week. I told God that I have laid her at his feet and that no matter what decision he makes, whether to heal her or to take her, I know that it is the right one. I may not understand it now but someday I will...

I've been blessed with 28 years of a loving, spunky, fun and exciting Granny...I have chosen not to take that blessing lightly or be selfish. I will enjoy every minute I have left and make sure she knows how loved and appreciated she is...

Thank you all for your prayers and I hope you continue praying and I'll keep you posted on our journey...

It is a special joy that you can arrange to spend more time with your Granny - whichever way it goes, God's plan is always the right one - and right now you're doing the best thing of all - being with her! My prayers continue for God to give all of you comfort and healing - and joyful times together, while you see what the doctors can do.
