Linda's Long Road to Recovery

Most of you do not know, but in September my mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer. She had radiation & chemotherapy but the tumor did not shrink.  Surgery was her only option.


Mom had the surgery one month ago and has been in the hospital since 


The tumor was in such a difficult location, they had to collapse her lung to locate it and she had to have most of her stomach and part of her esophagus removed 


The recovery is excruciating 


Mom came home last night - with a feeding tube and on oxygen 


She will require around the clock care.  This care must be done by a Nurse because Home Health Care Aides do not do feeding tubes or administer medication (which must be crushed up and fed through her feeding tube)


This kind of around the clock care is very expensive and not covered by Medicare 


My family is suffering both emotionally and financially and any donation will greatly relieve “some” stress 


All prayers are also greatly appreciated
