Well...first off.....MY CAT CAME BACK!!!!! After 10 days of living in the cornfield, Ryan found her and brought her back home. She hasn't changed from living in the wild for that long. I know this is going to sound weird....but I know that this is God's mercy. I prayed that I know this is a small thing, but asked God to take care of her and let her be found. I am so happy.
Ryan found her on Friday a week ago. On that same Friday, Stacey called the pool to tell us she was back in the hospital. She was having some troubles the end of June and went to the doctor. They discovered she had cancer, but told her it was slow moving. 2 weeks ago she started having more trouble and when she went in last week it was to have her bile ducts opened again. Well, a CT scan showed that she had a 4 inch tumor on her liver that wasn't there when the did the neuroscan just 2 weeks ago! She has several tumors on her liver and in front of her pancreas. The beginning of the week they were giving her vitamin K shots to bring her blood count up so she could go to her appt. at John Hopkins on Thurs. Thurs. she was too unstable to transport, the oncologist from both hospitals conferred.....and they gave her 3 days!!! She was just at the pool last week. It is like way too much to digest right now. Crazy....she was tired a lot this summer, but never really "looked" sick or acted sick. It just has happened so fast. She is a coach for summer and winter swim teams and Swim America, so a lot of kids are going to be affected by this. Only a miracle could save her now.
