Well, it's been a few days since I've written anything. Thanksgiving was AWESOME!
I was so sure that placing mom in a nursing home was tied up. The place we chose was beautiful and close to all of us. I thought my sister and I had covered all the issues and asked all the right questions. It looked like a slam dunk. All tied up with a bow on top. Then my sister called.......
They decided NOT to accept our application for mom. She wasn't really given any specific reason. The main administrator, Dave, wasn't there so my sister was talking to someone else. She was only guessing that something in her medical records swayed the decision.
Anyway, BUMP!!! Something I thought was going so smooth just got shuffled. So back to the drawing board. My sister put in another application at another home. Just waiting to hear.........
On a slightly different note: I have a check-up with my oncologist tomorrow. UGH!!! I know I have nothing to be afraid of, I guess. Every check-up is just a reminder that I AM A CANCER PATIENT. Although I think of myself as a survivor, each check-up stirs up those scary feelings. What if something is growing somewhere else? What if........ Ridiculous, I know. God has seen me this far, He won't let me walk alone now.
"I will NEVER leave thee, NOR forsake thee....."
"I will cover thee with the palm of MY HAND....."
O.K., GOD, I AM HOLDING ON!!!!!!!!
