Today was a difficult day.
I ran the Detroit Komen Race For The Cure this morning in celebration of Mom.
It was emotional for me as I saw all of the survivors and the memorials and the support. I cried several times throughout the walk. (We walked instead of running today.)
Late in the day I talked to my Dad.
After seeing the visiting nurse and a call to Mom's oncologist, Dad took her to the emergency room. She did not sleep well last night and then was not able to keep any food down today. I talked to her and she seemed groggy, and really down. She just wants to feel better. We all want her to feel better, to get better.
A CT scan tonight showed a non-life threatening small obstruction in her bowels. They are keeping her in the hospital overnight to get her on an IV and restrict her food.
Tomorrow her team of docs will review everything and decide on a course of action.
We are optimistic they can help her get through this moment. Where we go from there is unknown.
I've decided that I can't dwell in the speculation of things unknown. I can't live in the place of the past. I have to take each moment and believe in the best to come. And I pray that God will steady her course and give us the best possible answers and strength.
I hope you will do the same.
