Quick update.


Regina has taken turn for the worse. Today she vomited about 6 times, no food. She has lost some weight due to not eating and vomiting. She sleeps more and spends awake less. We just upped her steroids and gave her new anti nausea meds to keep her vomiting down. She does not complain pain, and she is not very responsive. Hospice nurse will come by tomorrow also to check on her.
Reginas blood pressure was slightly elevated also today. :(

I miss her smiles and cute laughter. I miss her hugs and kisses....

You miss the smiles, the laughter, the hugs and kisses because you love her so very much. Please remember that even as you cry because you miss these things, you must also smile because you had them.

I love you,
Katrina

Dear Diana, I am grieving for you and your family. There is nothing on this earth that is worse that seeing your child go through this. I hope that you can feel the love and compassion that everyone is feeling for you all right now,. Please call me if you need anything. I would be happy to come and help. Maybe you just want to be alone with your family right now. I'm sure that everyone understands and does not want to impose. You just let me know what you need OK? Just know that you have friends out here that are here if you need us. Thank you for updating. Love Diane

I wish i was religious (well not 'really', but still)- then i`d know for sure, that she`s gonna go and have a beautiful time in god`s hands. But i still believe, that she`s gonna be very happy and enjoy herself the way she couldn`t here and time just flies there, so when it`s finally your time (when your hair is gray and you1ve had a peaceful happy life, knowing she`s fine There) and you show up, she`s gonna be surprised, that you`re already there :). she`s gonna complain about you rushing, so she didn`t have the time to finish up her special cupcakes and she`s gonna throw back her shiny long pink hair pretending she`s a little mad with you for not giving her enough time to bake at least one perfect batch of cakes :D and then shower you with hugs and kisses and cupcakes :)


...right?

Always thinking about your family and lil sweet Regina... wishing the best and alll the strenght in the world and happiest sweet dreams to her, if she has to sleep.

love
