Default When you think things can't get any worse:
A while back I posted about my friend who had breast cancer metastasize to her brain. During all of this she gave birth to two beautiful healthy twin girls.
Now the girls are nearly 4 months old and doing great. However; there mommy is deteriorating and was told today that there are no more treatment options for her. It seems she has more brain tumors and some are on her spine plus she had developed a very rare form of cancerous meningitis. Doctors have given her 3 months.

At this point (besides the fear of leaving babies behind without a mama) my friend is starting to be in a lot of pain.

I need everyone to send up prayers to God.
When you think things can't get any worse:-babies-jpg Please God, if you can't give Kerri a miracle then please do not let her suffer. Watch over her family and bless her babies and give them a good, solid, love filled life. In Jesus name I pray. Amen

I have not hurt over something this bad in such a long time...

I am so very sorry to hear this. Words seem useless.

I will pray for her and her family. It's so hard to try and make sense of things like this.

Hospice is a great help for all concerned. Pain relief, counseling for spouse, family, bills, etc. at stage 4 she would qualify. My condolences to all.

Oh Karilann, I am so sorry. I pray right along with you, for a
miracle, for this brave Mommy and her babies..& Family

Also praying for you, in your sorrow.

Oh, how heartbreaking. Thank you for sharing that wit us so we can support you and all of them with prayer and a shoulder. I agree about the hospice. The Dad will really need the support they can offer him. And they can help her to say goodby to her girls and they all be at peace about it

Hearing sad stories like this just brings tears to one's eyes. My thoughts and prayers are going that way. Also for a dear friend like you, karilann.

(((Karilann)))...heartbreaking situation...I'm so sorry she is experiencing pain. It will make her last days not pleasant...hospice will assure that her pain is manageable.
As for the babies...when she isn't in tremendous pain, ask someone to take pics with her & the babies, so they will have some pics of them with Momma...

Prayers and comforting arms for all of you...
