    Thursday Morning
    Wow......yesterday was a wild day. I brought my mom to the Oncologist and I gotta tell ya....those guys don't hold anything back. They tell ya streight up and forward about things. He told my mom that she probably only has 3 to 6 months to live. He said he'll try more chemo, but he doesn't think it's gonna make any difference. My mom was crying so much it was killi...

    Way Too Early, Sunday Morning ( 2:25am )
    "I CAN'T SLEEP"!  So much is going on over here, it's crazy!
    My brother ( half brother ) is making it so difficult for my sister and me.  He wants to move my mom out of New Hampshire and down to NYC because he thinks that the hospitals, doctors and nurses up here don't know a dam thing. He thinks we live in the stone age. How ...

He loves it when all is peaceful and Brayden is being good. He has NO patience with sickness in anyone but himself. The son in laws have spent hours upon hours in the family room downstairs playing X-Box. They are down th...
