My mom is dying. My dad felt unable to manage her safely at home so he called 911 today. Her cancer is very aggressive. New tumors discovered today in her brain and spine. She has had periods of lucidity this evening. I am planning to leave Cameron's hospital bedside tomorrow (since he is stable) and drive 2.5 hours to sit by my mom's and hope that I can catch a lucid moment with her for what will likely be our final goodbye. Please pray for comfort and strength for my family.

I can't remember if I've mentioned it here or not, but my dad's sister died last week. Her funeral has been delayed until next week when her grandson can get away from the military.

And for an extra blow, AF showed today and caught me completely unprepared and 2 hours away from home. Had to borrow products from Cameron's nurse.

ENOUGH! I don't know if I'll ever have the strength to TTC again.

Lori, I know there aren't any words to make you feel better with everything you have going on right now. I just want you to know that I am praying for you, Cameron, and your entire family. I've asked my church to be praying for you also. I'm so sorry for everything that you are having to face right now. I know it isn't much, but

Lori, youre doing so well hunny. You have so much strength. Everyone needs time to break down a little bit, please dont feel defeted. It will get better. Im so sorry about your mother, and that Cam relapsed. You have been the strength for both of these wonderful people, and they very much so appreciate it. Now you need someone to be strong for you, and we will all be here to try to do that. Ill continue to keep your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Take it all one day at a time, that way it wont become as overwhelming.

I am soo sorry for all that you are going through right now. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Its seems so hard just to go through one of lifes trials at a time, and here you are dealing with multiple trials at once. You seem to be doing so well keeping yourself together. I will pray for your continued strength, and pray for peace among your family.
