    I understand completely what you are saying. I finally arrived at a place just this week that I felt her around me. It was so comforting to know that. I know in my heart that she is with me every day and that she is watching not over me but others that she loved. She left several of the children in our family that are devistated but know that Aunt Dani is watching over them. I hope it as comforting to them as it is to me. I find myself in a difficult situation in that my family has always been very close and that they not only lost one of their family but a person that they looked up to. Doesn’t matter what your reasoning is for being here just that you are doing so much good is wonderful. Every day is a struggle but with Gods help I keep on going because that is what I know she would have wanted. We were closer then most Mother and Daughter in that it was just the two of us since she was 5 years old. I struggle with the knowlege that I could not protect her from this but know that we did everything that we could have done to give her more time with those that she loved.

    Thank you Lainy. Dani was a very stong person that only wanted to help all children. Unfortunately she never married and had no children of her own. But I think that was all in Gods plan as she loved and wanted to help all children in need. She had just finished getting her Masters in Counceling and was ready to start setting up her own practice to help kids that were at risk and their families. I struggle to look for the reason that God took her when she wanted so much to help others but I know that she is in a better place and that she is with us all every day. Bless you in what you are doing to help other. It is a noble thing that all of you do.
    God bless and help you in your time of healing.

    Bless your heart for being there for your Mother. She knows she is in good hands and that you will watch over her. I know how difficult it is to watch someone you love go through all of this. But you will do the right thing for her. You must remember to take care of yourself also during this process. Spend as much time as possible with her and tell her that you love her. That is the most important thing you can do for her right now.

    Dear Lainy
    No I am sorry we are not in the Phoenix area. We live in the Northwest in Idaho. One of the reasons we flew to Arizona was due to how sick my daughter was at that time. It was very difficult for her to travel even that far. We thought about going to Minnesota rather then Arizona but I am glad we didn’t then. It took her a day to recover once we got there and that was flying straight through.
    We appreciate your help with this. We are just unsure of how to proceed from here.

    Hi Roslyn
    I too am new to the site but have been through some of the things your husband is going through with my daughter. She too was sick and in pain at first. They had her on so many different types of pain medications and pills for her nausea. I must say that once they took her off of the pain medications and put her on morphine she was a whole different person. She was more like her old self. If your husband can handle morphine I would really recomend it for his pain. My daughter found that once the pain was under control she did not need as many medications for the nausea. Hope things go well for you and your husband. This site has really helped me already.
    With Gods love.

    Have any of you had any experience with the Scottsdale Mayo Clinic. That is where I took my daughter for a second opinion. They told us there really wasn’t anything they could do. Just wanted to know if we should look into the Mayo in Rochester.

    I want to thank all of you for opening your hearts and prayers for us. This has been so difficult to deal with. It is comforting to know that others have dealt with it. We live in the Northwest and have also went to the Scotsdale Mayo for a second opinion. We have been told that surgery and transplant are out of the question. Two different chemo treatments and the tumors continue to grow and multiply. We are still hopeful but are looking at the real possiblity of losing this fight. I want to thank you for the suggestions and will look into them. Thanks again.
