One step forward, TWO steps back…

This is Stacey, Sherry and Charley’s daughter, again.

Mom is not doing too good. She had a CT scan done Wednesday. It showed that her lower GI (bowels, colon, etc.) are not working properly. They had to take her off of the feeding tube due to this problem. She is only taking Tylenol for pain.

The doctors told us that the problem could be solved with surgery BUT Mom is way too weak for surgery. She has been through A LOT these past couple of months. Yesterday was a pretty rough day and she was not awake much. They did another CT scan this morning and it shows a slight improvement from yesterday.

Basically, we are going to wait a couple of days to see if she continues to improve on her own or if we need to try the surgery.

We encourage all prayers for her healing and for her not to be in pain or suffer.

We hope that she improves and we do not have to try a risky surgery.

Thank you – Dilworth/Price Family
