DAY # 1

THIS IS MY MOM RIGHT AFTER AN 8HR ORAL SURGERY.

WHERE THEY REMOVED HALF OF HER JAW BONE AND PART OF HER TOUNGE WHICH HAD THE CANCER. SHE WAS STILL ON HEAVY MEDICATIONS SO SHE WASNT ABLE TO OPEN HER EYES EVEN IF SHE TRIED TO.

WE WOULD ASK HER QUESTIONS AND THE WAY SHE WOULD RESPOND TO US IS BY SQUEEZING OUR HAND 1 SQUEEZE FOR YES AND 2 SQUEEZES FOR NO AND THATS HOW THE REST OF THE DAY WE COMMUNICATED WITH HER...

DAY # 2

MY MOM HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO EAT NOR DRINK ANYTHING ALTHOUGH SHE IS ALLOWED TO DO SO, THE OPEN WOUND IN HER MOUTH IS SO SORE THAT IF ANYTHING TOUCHES IT, IT STINGS HER WHOLE MOUTH. ALTHOUGH HER FACE IS VERY SWOLLEN THE DOCTORS SAY SHE IS DOING VERY GOOD AND SHE WILL BE TRANSFERRED FROM ICU TO A REGULAR ROOM TOMORROW..

DAY # 3
MY MOM IS RECOOPERATING FASTER THAN WE ALL EXPECTED. THE DOCTORS ARE AMAZED AT HOW QUICK SHE IS HEALING AND ITS ONLY BEEN 3 DAYS.

SINCE SHE IS ON A LIQUID DIET RIGHT NOW THE ONLY THING SHE IS ABLE TO EAT OR BETTER YET (SIP) IS LIQUIDS LIKE JELLO, BROTHS & JUICE.

SHE HATES IT BUT SHE PUTS UP WITH IT BECAUSE SHE HAS NO CHOICE..

I SLEPT OVER THE HOSPITAL YESTERDAY WITH HER.

SO MANY THOUGHTS WOULD COME TO MY MIND WHEN EVER I WOULD LOOK BACK TO WATCH HER SLEEPING.... EVEN THE THOUGHT OF LOOSING HER ONE DAY BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES SHE MEANS THE WORLD TO ME AND ALTHOUGH SHE WILL HAVE TO GO HOME ONE DAY I WOULDNT WANT IT TO BE THIS WAY BUT I LEAVE IT ALL TO YAH!!!!!
