Ive been on the verge of tears all day. When the dr. told us the cancer had spread, we aked how long she had left. He didnt want to say, but did say he thought mom would have a few more months. From the day he gave us the news until she died was only 18 days. That isnt even a month. She had only been home for 12 days too!! WHat the hell is that? We were robbed.
The dr. and his staff did send a very nice personal card the other day. He wrote in it that Mom always had a smile on her face no matter what the circumstances, and she did. The day he gave us the bad news, Mom looked at him before he left the room and said, "Thats OK, I still love you." The had bonded during American Idol and always discussed who was going to win (she wanted Bo, Dr. E wanted Carrie. lol)
Tomorrow I am going over Tim and Shelli's and we are going to write Thank you cards out. We are also going to have some crabs. Im so glad to be spending more time with them. They watched Dragan for me Friday night for awhile and thats been all he has talked about the entire day today.
