April 25, 2008 carynmartine

Mom had a really nice birthday yesterday with visits from all her children and Aunt Carole and Uncle Warren.  We bought her some pretty new pajamas which she sported for all the company.  I was even able to find delicious kosher for passover cupcakes at Crumbs Bakery to which we sang Happy Birthday. 

For the past day or so, Mom has been coughing.  Today she got the results of her chest xray back and she tested positive for pneumonia.  I’m going over to the hospital now and will get more information.  We hope and pray that her blood counts are still high enough and will aid her in her fight.  So many complications one right after the other.  It doesn’t seem my poor wonderful mother can get a break.  But we will keep positive and keep praying and encouraging her to keep battling on.  Thank you for all the wonderful blog entries and emails that you’ve sent her way.  I’ve been printing them out and putting them in envelopes so that each and every one if them was a separate birthday card for her.  Keep them coming, we need all the support, prayers and love we can get!!
