Hi to everyone who LOVES Angie!

We're starting this blog to keep everyone updated on my mom's health. A couple of months ago mom went in for a check up. Test revealed she was having problems with her kidneys. Around this time she started experiencing pain in her back. We all thought it was caused by her working so hard at Su Casa or maybe because of her kidneys. Last Thursday (June 21st), we got quite a shock when we found out that the doctors suspected her kidney problems were being caused by some form of bone cancer. They found lesions on her back during a ct scan.  She was so cute when she said 'See, everyone kept brushing off the fact that I said my back was hurting and now we know why my back was hurting!'. Well, Mom started having trouble with nausea this past weekend. It started getting worse and the last few days she has not been able to keep any food down. On Wednesday (July 27th) she was been hospitalized at St. Marks so they could give her intravenous meds to get her feeling better. Today a biopsy confirmed that she has a type of blood cancer.

    We just went to our monthly Su Casa lunch, our Angie was there again ... So I asked, our eyes filled with tears was told, and given this blog. She has been through a lot with me, my MS diagnosis, the birth if my son, (now 21), knowing my parents, through my fathers death, and my moms last hip replacement...we always had our Angie to talk with us and brighten our day...YOU ARE SO LOVED AND MISSED! And all our prayers for you and your family.
