    Your mom is in good hands with the staff at Cleveland Clinic. I'll put in some hopeful thoughts for you both.

    My Mom
    Well, things took a bit of a negative turn. Last Mon. 2/23 my Mom started coughing up blood and was admitted to a hospital here in Erie. They determined that it was probably the tumor bleeding so they took here by ambulance to the Cleveland Clinic where her cancer Dr. is located. He also felt it was the tumor bleeding and that it may have progressed to another stage. They performed another test to see if it had spread to her lymph nodes, it did not!!! Not out of the woods yet he wanted to see if it had spread upwards to her brain, and so another test was performed to check her brain, it has not spread there yet either!!! Finally they wanted to schedule surgery, but now they felt she needed to regain some strength, as this is going to be a very difficult surgery for her. Instead of sending her back to Erie they decided to perform a couple of stress tests to see if she could survive the surgery, she passed those with flying colors!!!!! Finally surgery is scheduled for tomorrow!! She has 3 Drs. and all 3 feel if they can remove this tumor successfully, she has a very good shot at getting her life back to normal!!! No promises. My brother and I made the trip to Cleveland yesterday for a visit, and she seems to be in the right place mentally to get through all this. We said goodbye after several hrs, and that was probably the hardest goodbye all 3 of us ever had to say. My brother and i both said see you next week we love you, kissed her and walked away. Tomorrow I will go to work and wait for the phone call saying everything went ok!! Thanks everyone!!!Peace

    Sending out some positive energy to all the folks who are suffering, and all the others who will be with the situation as it is...When I start to feel overwhelmed with all of the negative energy, I try to stop and focus not on the bad in life, but on what is positive in that moment. My loving partner, my old cat (and young dog), the leaves starting to sprout outside, and all of the loving people on this forum. Thanks for being here!!! Good to know you got shoes to wear when you find the floor.

    Well
    So far so good!!! My Mom talked to the cancer surgeon today, and he said he thinks she has a great chance with surgery, not promising anything he went on to say that they will remove about 20% of her 1 lung and if everything goes well she could have full breathing capacity in aout 3 weeks to a month. Now we wait for the surgery to be scheduled, hoping it will be real soon, as he said that it is a very fast growing tumor. Keep up the good work everyone and thanks.Peace

Thanks for finding time to give us this good news. Maybe Deadhead power has helped just a little. I really hope Candy continues to get better and can be home soon.

Thanks so much.I print out your comments and read them to her. Hopefully today she will be awake when I read them. She is doing a little better. They began to lower the amount of sedatives and hope to have her awake today. They may try to remove the tube going down her throat Tuesday morning. We got official notice from the CDC she has been H1N1 free for 96 hours. The experimental drug that saved her life was Relenza. It was previously only used as an inhalent. Doctor Levine had to move mountains to get the FDA to release it in liquid form. So if a loved one is in the hospital tell the doctor about it. It really stopped the H1N1 from reproducing. I can't believe it has been over three weeks since she started getting real sick. We are lucky to have such good caring friends like you to help out. Bob and Candy And the road goes on forever....

Thanks everyoneShe is awake very weak breathing on her own -she squeezed my hand 3 times which is our secret signal for "I Love You"-- when I told her she had been asleep for 17 days her eyes got really really big.. One of my friends is taking me to see the ABB tonite at the Hard Rock. And the road goes on forever.... BobbaLee

What can I say? Let a therapist sleep for 17 days and first thing she has to be on her cell phone with her "Froggy" voice checking with her patients. The nurses had to take it away from her after a few hours.The Allman Bros were simply amazing damn they sure can rock sounded as good as they did 20- years ago. I don't have too many memories of the 60's shows I saw of them. Best part went into the casino spent 6 bucks on the slots won $46 and promptly left. Enough for Double Jack Daniels and Coca Cola for my friend and I. We want to thank you again for all of the well wishes and kind words and prayers. The Mihm family And the road goes on forever....

Hey everyone...I've been completely remiss about signing on and spreading positive vibes, and for that I apologize. I miss you guys. Anyway, school is going well for Marjie and I both, however we have hit a point of diminishing returns living were we are, so it's back to Alabama for us. We are excited as all get out to be moving back home. One thing is that we have friends who are not like family but are indeed family to us in Mobile, and that is something we've missed since we started our wagon train up to the mountains. We've seen and learned and experienced and now it is time to go. Our projected moving date is the second week of February. This of course breaks from my own personal norm of giving myself 24 or 36 hours of preparation to move. Usually I decide to move, rent a truck, and while I'm loading it I decide where to go...this time we are doing our homework and whatnot first. Guess we be growing up. I did my first professional photography job. I photographed candles for a local soy candle company to use on their website. Unfortunately they decided not to pay me citing that I am in school and was working there as a student. Sucks...especially when they initially promised to pay me to do the job. It's a bunch of nonsense, but needless to say our leaving here isn't going to be as difficult as it once would have been. It is good experience though. I sent my first "cease from using my copyrighted work" letter. Still don't know what is going to happen. Either they have to pay me or they have to figure out how to shoot a couple thousand photos of candles real quick. On the up side...we have a friend in Mobile who is a working photographer too busy to handle her work load. She has been looking for someone to partner with. On a side note, she is actually the person who bought our house in Mobile, so when we go visit we hang out on our old deck. With any luck we'll be able to find a place walking distance between us. In the meantime, I've been saving up and investing in things like cameras and flashes and printers and computers and software, so we should be set to hit the ground running when we get back down to the gulf coast. Sorry for the long note, I haven't been around in a while...but I wanted to send out good vibes to a friend who is out hitchhiking right now. She went from here to Mobile with us, then hitched out to Cali, up the coast...Oregon, and then over to Jersey. I saw her yesterday for five minutes and she was off like a flash. I think she is headed down to Florida. Anyway, we expect to see her down in Alabama after we move, so she's gonna remain on the road this whole time. She's really got it in her, and she's a hell of a writer too. Okay, time to go...I love you guys...Happy Holidays, and all you travelers keep it between the lines in this ice. Later Gators
