As most of you know, my mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer that has spread to other organs. I have been staying with her at the hospital and it has been very difficult for me to post to my own blog much less read other blogs. I want to thank everyone who has left well wishes here on my blog and for those who have helped me to keep posting to my blog. I still have two more very kind people who have written posts and I've not had the time to get them up on the blog yet....but I will.
One thing I noticed is how getting cards has really meant a great deal to my mother. I'm going to ask each of you to please spread the word that I'm kindly requesting that people send my mother a greeting card. Please no "Get Well" cards, but any other type of card would be wonderful. You can share an uplifting moment in your life, a joke, just anything to lift her spirits. I promise I'll do the same for you and your family....all you have to do is let me know :)
We are hoping she will be able to go home sometime next week so if you can send a card sooner rather than later, that would be wonderful.
I have been taking care of myself, so many people have asked. I'm sleeping when I can and eating well. Again, THANK YOU so very much for all the kindnesses that have been shown....a little goes a long way during times like this.
Appreciative Smiles,
Kelly
