My Mother

[Margaret Diann]

So sorry to hear of your mother's situation. I think there is too much cancer and too many autoimmmune issues. Many times people are dealing with an underlying anemia that is not diagnosed, almost ignored, and I think it is the real cause of death for so many. Clues are shortness of breath, rapid heart beat, the chills. You can look back at the medical info and see if there are too many white blood cells, an abnormal blood sugar, abnormal body temp, abnormal BP.

These possible helps in diagnosis and treatment.

CFIDS Anemia is / clues Help? Good nutrition & ... glycobiology ... Such as glyconutrients Gamma globulin Rituxan for AIHA? ... for cancers?

"Gamma globulin may also be used to treat immunological diseases other than deficiencies. For example, in immunological thrombocytopenia purpura, the patient's antibodies attack his or her own platelets, interfering with the blood's ability to clot. Gamma globulin injections are useful in treating this condition, though the mechanism by which they work is not fully understood. The injections may cause the spleen to ignore signals to destroy the antibody-tagged platelets, or they may cause the malfunctioning gamma globulin to degrade at an increased rate. In any case, the extra gamma globulin counteracts the malfunctioning antibodies that attack platelets and allows the platelets to thrive."

Birth Defects

Do you think you could speak with the doctor or the nurse, and see if you could possible come to see your mother.

each and every one of you for your replies and thoughts.

I hope noone cares, but I printed this up and taking it along to Florida next week when we go to see her. I am sure she will enjoy the thoughts of people that she never met but are cyber friends of mine. She is the one who talked me into enlisting in the Navy.

Once again, THANKS ALL....

Reeb - do what you can - be there and see what if any loose ends she may want you to do for her. I didn't get those chances and mine pasted away about 10 years ago or thereabouts.

I know its tough and you will have to be her strength and I regret that all of us at one time or another has or had gone through this family crisis. I wish you the best and a prayer goes out to your Mom and who knows maybe she will pull off a miracle and get a few more years.

Once more you have my best regards during these tough days.

Tell your mom prayers are going out from all over the USA in her behalf.

MOTHERS

Real Mothers don't eat quiche; they don't have time to make it.
Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox.
Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy kids.
Real Mothers know that dried play dough doesn't come out of carpets.
Real Mothers don't want to know what the vacuum just sucked up.
Real Mothers sometimes ask 'Why me?' and get their answer when a little voice says, 'Because I love you best.'
Real Mothers know that a child's growth is not measured by height or years or grade...It is marked by the progression of Mommy to Mom to Mother...

The Images of Mother

4 YEARS OF AGE - My Mommy can do anything!

8 YEARS OF AGE - My Mom knows everything!

12 YEARS OF AGE - My Mother doesn't really know everything.

14 YEARS OF AGE - Mother doesn't know much at all.

16 YEARS OF AGE - Mother is hopelessly old-fashioned.

18 YEARS OF AGE - That woman is way out of date!



25 YEARS OF AGE - Well, she might know a little bit!

35 YEARS OF AGE - Before we decide, let's get Mom's opinion.

45 YEARS OF AGE - Wonder what Mom would have thought about it?

65 YEARS OF AGE - Wish I could talk it over with Mom.....

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!
