Hello dear forum family. Sorry I have not been on here so much lately, as many of you know I am not only dealing with my dads ALS issues but now daughters health issues as well. I have a very full plate, and by the time I get a chance to get on here I am so exhausted I am literally out like a light. My daughter is stable at the moment. Still internally bleeding somewhere, but her blood levels are holding stable, although she is still very anemic. Leaving her to go to Seattle to the VA to be with mom while dad gets his PEG tomorrow. I am faced with the worry of leaving her and being so far away, but under these circumstances, hopefully nothing emergent will come up with her so we can all focus on dad. I know from being on here so much and talking to you, all my dear friends, that this could really go either way. For most, it seems to be a piece of cake. Others, like Jay, our beloved Linda, and Web took a turn for the worse after the PEG placement. I am terrified this will happen to my dad. Hoping for the best, and preparing for the worst. My mom and I will be staying the night in a hotel in Seattle and then work in tandem to care for dad when he gets home. Both of us are a mess. A lot of you already know, but I would like to take the time to introduce my mom to the forum. Her name is Ius2bSJ and her actual name is Sharon. I am really grateful that she has finally started to reach out to this wonderful family here, and I know that you will all make her feel the warmth of the tight family bond we all share here.
To all my dearest friends here, I PROMISE I have not forgotten about you, I carry you with me in my heart. Please send us all your positive energy and prayers, we really really need them right now!
Love to you all, and you know who you are!
