Well the doc's have kept us waiting long enough. Today Wanda went to the surgeon Dr Crane (same guy who did mamaw's and Norma's surgerys) and he said Yes, she is eat up with cancer. She hasn't been able to eat in over a month due to the tumors in her colon, rectum. She can't go to the bathroom. If she eats it cramps her and makes her sick. These idiot doc's know this. The day of Gracie's funeral Wandy took me because Adam's brother in law was also buried that down down south. She was so small then. He is going to operate on her May 29 at HMH. Then and IF she makes it thru the surgery he'll discuss chemo and radiation with her. She's only 61. She will have to have one of those colostomy bags the rest of her life, if. I hate that word. Dad just called and told me. He's a mess so, boys, call and check on him. John, there is no amount of woosa's to help. I can't lose her. I'm going to be selfish. I just can't lose her. Wanda is my second mom. She is my best friend. From the time I was 12 until Oct 25 1994 I lived with her and my uncle, helping to take care of my mamaw. Most of u might not know that about me. When I was 12 mamaw (dad and Wanda's mom) fell and had 3 strokes, broke her hip, had Parkinson's. She never really knew any of us after that. For 5 and a half years we took care of her. Changed her diapers, fed her thru a G Tube. It was hard but we did it day in and day out. If I wasn't in school I was there helping. Wanda always said it's better to laugh than cry and we've done lots of both. When I started working at Speedway and acting like the stupid naive lil ho bag that I acted like, Wanda worried herself sick. I never could keep much from her. I love all my family. I love all my aunt's, uncles, cousins. I have a big heart, I pretty much love everyone, she's just special. Dear God, please let her be ok. I'm sorry. I shouldn't be writing such a depressing email to all of u. I'm bcc'ing this to everyone so I don't have to type it more than once. I'm lazy that way. I'd like to ask u if u have a moment to plz say a prayer for her and my uncle, my cousin's. This lil bitty lady is our rock. She holds us idiots together and I can't explain how special she is. I know it may not be politically correct to say God now days but He is real and He can do anything. I believe this and Wanda is a big part of the reason I have so much faith. She instilled that in me and if the word God offends u, well, if it offends u I guess u can stop reading and delete this now because I'm a blood bought born again child of God and I believe in Him. I believe He can heal her, if that is His will. She has a long road ahead of her. I'm going to put off my surgery for awhile because it's not a big deal. Medication can take care of it until I get to it. I'll have to be there to help her. I'm sorry, I'm babbling again. I would appreciate any prayers for her, my uncle, and cousins.
Thanks.
Love
Ange & family
