Please everyone send lots of prayers for Cheryl that her fever breaks asap and she does not go Septic again. This is what is happening now, she had a lymph node that has bothered her for a couple of years behind an ear, her doc finally decided to have it biopsied, and guess what malignant cells showed up. There were not enough that they staged it, but he wanted it removed nonetheless. While doing that surgery he found another one behind it and removed it. The oncologist suggested a PET scan and they found a questionable one under her arm that needed to be removed so he suggested removing the nodes on both sides. After all the surgeries (2) she has kicked up a fever and infection, doc was to do blood washing again and I am now out of money to cover all of this. ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜ญ. It is over 30k just to get the machine to the hospital. she is talking to the Social Worker trying to see if Shriners will help. Shriners kicked in with her second surgery to the tune of 97k when her insurance refused to pay for the surgery.

At this point, all we have left now are lots of prayers. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ Sorry it seems like this is the only time I show up here anymore, it has been a long year. On a good note, I have lost a much-needed 20 lbs that I put on while taking care of my parents, and dealing with my sister.
 
Oh goodness, what a rollercoaster it's been already, and this is another setback you really don't need. ๐Ÿฅบ

I'm not a praying person, but I'm sending healing thoughts her way, and virtual hugs to you and all who need them in your family. ๐Ÿ’œ
 
Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry for her. Prayers for her and may the medical team be on their A game for her. Please keep us up to date as allowed.
 
She went back into surgery to scrape infection again. The MRI showed a large patch of infection back in the sinus area but fortunately did not affect her patches. Her doctor said he got all the infection scraped out. Her immune system is just so low it takes nothing for infection to set back in apparently. They also did a blood wash treatment this morning with 3 more scheduled. Thank goodness no sepsis, but she is suspectable to it.
