HH thought she was having a heart attack last Friday afternoon, turned out she was almost stroking out but they are more concerned about the mass in her lungs.  They think cancer, she is having a biopsy on Tuesday and a PET scan on Thursday.  Say a couple of prayers for her please.

Prayers coming, will have Mike add her to the prayer list at church as well.

Life ain't about how fast you run, or how high you climb, but how well you bounce.

I will tell her you all are thinking of her.  She is kind of freaking out about how to pay all the bills, her furnace went out, feed the horses, pay what her insurance won't pay and generally how to live.  I told her to have a neighbor haul her horses to a sale and let them go.  She can replace them later.  She needs to calm down, her blood pressure when she went to the ER was 241/168, that is really bad.  Went in for a heart attack/possible stroke and found the other.  Sad

Val, how many horses does she have left? There's got to be a sale around there to run them through or if she'll give the info & a contact phone number for her I'll list them on DH and a couple other sites if she wants. If she prices them low they should sell, weren't most of her's bred pretty decent?

Well she went in for biopsy yesterday, they ended up admitting her because she got a collapsed lung out of it.  She sounded terrible last night and that is about all I know.  She is very worried about the PET scan for this weekend because that will tell the story of where all her cancer is.  For some reason they scheduled that one awful early, tells me they kind of expect to see it elsewhere.

Thanks for the update Val, if you hear from her after the PET scan please let us know. Still got her on the prayer list.

Well her biopsy showed that they think it is benign so they cancelled the pet scan.  She goes back to the Dr on Tuesday to find out more then she is having most of the stuff sent to a DR up in Indianapolis for a second opinion.  Way to many stupid things happening with this Dr.  I forgot to post this the other day.  Sorry.

Well she had 2 Dr. appointments yesterday.  They don't know what it is for sure, not cancer, not TB, not fungal.  They have her scheduled for another CT scan in 3 months to see if it has changed or not.  If it grows then they are going to take it out no matter what it is.  I put some of her horses on Dreamhorse, she wants to sell at least 2 of them and that should help her tremendously.  She wants to sell her place and move out this way.

Does she have any family where she lives?  It's great to hear she is getting some answers but scary that they don't know whats wrong.  Your such a great friend, being there for her!  Any hits on the horses?
