Guest guest Posted January 16, 2006 Report Share Posted January 16, 2006 Grammy Pat, I am so sorry to hear this. It is not going to be easy. Please don't wait to long to go see your mom. If they told you it would be 6 months to a year then the sooner you go the better. I will pray for peace of acceptence in what will happen. I know what you are facing and it is not going to be easy. Just remember you will not be alone..we are all here for you. Love Pepper"\"Just Doin' It\" Grammy Pat" wrote: Well, I just heard from my sister and it is what we were afraid of.

There is no sign of cancer anywhere else but there are several tumors in the liver so they cannot operate on it. She is too old for a transplant. The doctors are saying 6 months to a year. My sisters have not told her that part. I don't get an opinion but since I am not there, there is not much I can do. I wanted to go to Pa while she is having the treatments but my sister wants me to wait and when the treatments are done and Mom feels better she wants to bring her here for a visit. Get her out of the winter weather and such. I really appreciate all the prayers and cards that were sent and my Mom just loved getting them. She got 20 cards in one day and the mail person at the hospital said she must be awfully special. If anyone wants to send ,her home address is Rognoni, 247 St. Jessup, Pa 18434 At least I have more incentive than ever to get the weight off. I want my mother to see me thinner.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 Thanks Pepper. I might go up for my birthday next month. My granddaughter's birthday is the week before mine so that will be a good excuse and Mom wont think its just because of her.
