Her sister's tattoo reminded me of the room in the local Ronald McDonald House these girls remodeled when working on their Girl Scout Silver Award.
I am really struggling with this news and so is my daughter. She sent me a text from the next graduation party she attended asking "Did you get the whole story on G? Her family was acting like she was a walking corpse." Later, when we caught up after the fourth grad party of the day, we talked about it more. She said that G's grandma hugged her when she got there and said she was so happy that she got to see the girls graduate together and was glad that G had such supportive friends. Apparently G was only released from the hospital long enough to attend her party.. like a day pass. Their party ended early because G was in a lot of pain and had to get back to the hospital. G's sister told some of the other girls that they don't think that the cancer was ever completely gone, but that they weren't looking in the right place. It seems like if it was that widespread, they would have been doing MRIs and pet scans of her whole abdominal region. I mean, she'd had mets to the lungs originally.. wouldn't they have been looking just about everywhere to find all the tumors? To go from "She has no more visible cancer and we don't think she needs any follow up chemo because it is all gone" to her being this ill due to kidney interference in 6 weeks time just doesn't seem right at all
This is weighing heavy on my mind and I have shed a lot of tears about it today.
