Rose is on a pain pump and in severe heavy pain from the cancer in the L5 of her spine. So if you contact her, she will be loopy and quite emotional. Of course, please be confident when you call and try to deal with your emotions and stress before you call or FaceTime her. However I also ask that you open your heart to her. Say what is in your heart as these intimate heart to heart moments also give her strength. It absolutely strengthens that fight in her and it fuels her faith. And we have all witnessed the miracles of this faith. So even if there is one or 2 tears, this actually helps her with this battle. And do not be afraid to call. Since this is an older building, text or Facebook FaceTime/call are the best options since the buildings internet is so much better than the cell signal.
She is still on the advanced heart care floor. We are awaiting some doctor calls and test results. I will post updates as they become available.
If you don’t already know. We have also asked Desi (niece) to also join Margie and myself when making health decisions that Rose is unable to make. We asked her because she is a great nurse, she’s brilliant, and also lives here in NY. So I hope you agree, she is the best for the task but we are soooooooooo very blessed to have so many gifted talented people in our family. We love you all.
Please also advise me on something. Should we set up and use Rose health page on Facebook as we did before in the past or a groupme page or another central source. Of course I need to be with Rose in the crisis, not making hundreds of calls. But as before I can post daily updates (or Margie or Desi) when she is in the hospital. And also updates twice a week when she is at home. I do not want any family or church family to feel ignored or wonder in worry and it would break our hearts of anyone felt left out of the family circle. And not knowing is many times the hardest part of this and as we said before. We want PRAYER over PRIVACY.
We don’t want to tell you what to pray, but we ask that where it is possible, that God may take away, but if this is part of God’s will, then please pray that we have the strength to endure. Neither Rose or I would have ever been able to make it this far without your prayers. And we have the proof to show it. 🥰🥰🥰 And we will say it again, WE LOVE each and every one of you.
