The Beginning

I asked my mom if it was ok to create a blog to use for updates. And of course she said yes! This way we can update everyone all at the same time so you can know more how to pray! Hopefully I'll get her on here too sometimes to give you an update from her perspective.

We don't know too much yet, because we just found out on Wednesday (July 22nd). But we do know that liver cancer is not a good type of cancer to have. Friday, Mama had the porta cath put in so that she doesn't have to be poked in her arms so many times. A porta cath is a small rubber bubble like thing that is placed in the upper chest/shoulder area. It is right under the skin, so it was technically "surgically" placed in. She's been very good at keeping her left arm still so that it will heal up properly! I've made sure of that!!! :D Monday she will start her chemo treatments. I'll try to put up a schedule of her appointments so you know how to more accurately pray.

Josh and I came up to NC yesterday to be with her for a few days. We will be going back on Sunday afternoon. I'll be returning about a week later to stay for a while.

Thanks for your prayers in all of this.
