Hi Everyone,
This is Tracy's sister-in-law Marianne. I was asked to update the blog. On Wednesday her skin was hurting and in alot of pain. Thursday Doc gave her a pain patch. Friday the 29th Tracy was not feeling good again. She had a Dr. appt but Mom and Ronnie went. They told them that she now has 9 tumors on her brain. Saturday was not a good day. Early Sunday morning (July 1) her skin was on fire and could not take it no more. Ronnie took her to the hospital, she was dehydrated! Came home late on Sunday, felt better on Monday, as the day went on feeling new pain in her abdomen and still having difficulty swallowing. Ronnie called Dr. Monday afternoon to discuss the situation. Needs more fluid in take to keep hydrated, still suffering with pain. Tuesday drinking more liquids, trying to keep ahead of her pain! Early morning on 4th of July and ambulance took her to the hospital. Pain was to much to handle. Thursday was a great day, up all day visited with everyone. Dr Sehgel (her favorite Doctor)and a pain doctor came in to check on her. Short while later she had a seizure. Since than things have slowly declined. Now feeling comfortable with less pain and coming home soon. Please no calls, leave messages on 951-688-7243(PAGE) for more info when she'll be home to make visits.

Hello everybody,
Sorry again for the lapse in staying in touch. Has taken a while to get the pain under control. Dr. got mad at me for not keeping up on that as it makes it harder to fight. But the last two days have been fairly pain free, so I feel better, just waitin' to poop! Ha Ha!

Just want to thanks everyone for coming to the last Cut-a-thon. Especially to my crew for being there & doing such a great job. It was a great success for us. The next one is on July 8th, 9 to 1.
That is a Sunday & we are typically not open on Sundays, so come down if you can. We really appreciate the support.

For all who would like to attend, Marianne is holding a Vegas Night Poker party @ her house. $25.00 buy-in, or a company can sponsor a table for $65.00 & that includes the buy-in, table placard & coupons for drinks & things. They can also sponsor a gift or product for auction. Should be great fun.

Had some more tests this morning & will do another MRI of my head on Mon. The Neurosurgeon is suggesting a procedure called Gama Knife radiation. It pin points radiation right on the tumors in the brain. Will have to see the Radiation Therapy Dr. next Fri. to get the two Dr.'s to consult about it. That's the only other procedure so far that can be done for the brain. No more "Whole Brain" radiation, ever, ever, ever. F'n ever. We'll know more about some of the other things this next week.

Again want to thank everyone who has been there for me, writing letters & commenting on the Blog. Lisa, YOU ROCK CHICK.

Bye for now, Love & thanks.
Tracy

Hey everybody,
Saw the oncologist last Thur. & had pretty good news. The cancer count is down. All the blood work looks good too. Started on the Decadron again. Sorry I haven't responded to all the cards as of late, had a down couple of weeks. Trying to get to them now so look for them. There will be a "CUT-A-THON" at the shop this Sunday & next Sunday 9 to 1 so if your haircut can wait, it would make it worth while for those that are working that day. Thank you for the support.
Corey graduates next week. He's so excited.
Please keep up the prayers.
Tracy

Hi everybody, finally did some art work on my head. Dillon wanted to do a sunflower. Looks great. It felt really wierd. Have to do one more week of radiation on my arm pit. Not looking forward to that, but gotta do it. Will find out mon. what the Neurosurgeon has to say. Saw him Fri. but he needed another set of films to make a decision. My new chemo is going ok, just very tired. Tom is in town & wants to go to the swap meet tomorrow, so they are going to rent a wheel chair for me. Pathetic. It should be fun. Hope you enjoy the art, talk to you soon. Tracy
