Things not getting done, bills unpaid, constantly saying one thing doing another and when called out, simply say "I am doing the best I can". There are countless examples of unacceptable behavior.

I contemplated ending our relationship. I am so glad I didn't.

She began to exhibit signs of senility but maybe it was a TIA type stroke? She went to the doctor and was fine. Really? I took her to her doctor Monday, where I had the doctor ask her a few questions not on the usual list. I was told to take her to the ER where the diagnosis was a baseball sized mass (tumor). She's been in the hospital ever since, and I'm there till they kick me out. At 7:30 am Friday (today) she will have it removed during an 8+ hour operation. She has yet to shed a tear and I am just barely holding together.

I am telling everyone it went well in advance. Pray I'm right.

Carter,

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please -- if there is anything I can do for you do not hesitate to ask.

Hang in there, brother.

-- Donald

Thanks to all. Her name is Jay and I too just said a prayer for her. I bucked up half way through it.

I had the phone next to me all night and somehow missed her call. Jay called just as they hauled her off. I am sad I could have had another hour on the phone had I gotten the message.

I almost fell apart over the phone but got it together for one last I love you. She is stronger than I.

Thoughts and prayers for Jay and Carter

Hotrodz · 03-20-2015, 12:03 PM

Hang in there man, praying for you both!

Rusty · 03-20-2015, 12:40 PM

You and your girl are in my prayers. I went thought the same thing with my first wife. She battled cancer for 3.5 yrs before it beat her.

I'm hoping your girl has a better outcome.

Any news yet?!
Thinking of you guys (Jay and Carter)!

Memphis370Z · 03-20-2015, 09:11 PM

Just sent up a prayer for the both of y'all, as well as the surgeon(s) and hospital staff. Keep your chin up.

12 hours of surgery and that's all I know so far. I am wrung out emotionally.

Thanks to all once again,

Carter

I just got home from the hospital. She is heavily sedated but seemed to know me. She has a breathing tube currently so I did all the talking. As she is in ICU, I had more time waiting than seeing, but I was so relieved to be with her.

She is swollen and may have a vision issue in her left eye but that may be just fine in the end. She looks a lot better than I could have hoped from the doctors prep talk. The breathing tube will likely be removed in the morning and I'd like to be there early as they will let me.

Thanks for all the support.
