Hello OSA family. I've resisted posting this because it's painful, but many of you amazing people have contributed money to support my momma a while back on the go fund me I set up for her and my dad. We were trying to help them through some expenses and loss of income while she battled her colon cancer. Sadly in the last few weeks since then, things have gone downhill very quickly. We have been working day and night for the last few weeks trying to get her house set up and accessible to her wheelchair and make it easy to get around and get her into her chair, bed and car as she has become completely non-ambulatory. We finally got her patient lift fitted to work in the truck to get her in and out and finally be able to go back to Cancer Centers of America in Tulsa for treatments, but after she got there, they said they couldn't do chemo again until the wounds on her abdomen healed. Fast forward to a few days ago and on the way to her gastric Dr. appointment she slipped off her electric wheelchair and ended up back in the hospital. They quickly ran tests and confirmed that the cancer had spread now to her liver, lungs, lymph nodes and around her heart. Here we are, just out of options as nothing more can be done. She came home with my wife and I on hospice and now we sit with her every minute to give her comfort and relieve any pain and just ask Jesus to ease her into the next life. I am so beyond broken because my momma has always been the closest thing I've ever seen to an angel from heaven. She only gives to others, she only cares about others carrying on with thier lives. God brings me comfort tonight though, as she has smiled many times as she is my closer to the end and she's told me that she can see her momma and daddy and my aunt and uncle that have all passed and she is ready to be with them. I told the biggest lie ever told to my momma, I told her it's OK to let go and I want her to be with her family. It's only a partial lie though, because I do want her to have peace and no pain, but I'm not ready to let go. Anyways, it's late friends and I'm exhausted and stressed and broken hearted, but I'm also encouraged. Sorry for the long post, but I just wanted to get that off my chest and tell you all that this is the best site with the best members I've ever been a part of and I am so thankful for you all. I just ask once last thing. Please pray for my dad, he is losing his best friend and long time companion. This is going to be a difficult and lonely journey for him in the next few days and I pray God's peace be upon him. Thank you all.
