My good thoughts and prayers are going to you constantly, and like the others here, I sure wish I could do more. |
I know we all feel helpless. All I can do is offer my prayers for you and Ken, Patti. |
Thanks so much. You all do so much just by keeping the prayers going. Ken's platelets went up a little to 33 ad his potassium to 3.2 so that was better. He still won't eat but a few bites a day and is so weak. I have to lift him just to get him to a sitting position. It is really hard getting him out each time to the cancer center but I am building great muscles! |
Still praying for you both... |

My thoughts and prayers are with you and Ken throughout my waking hours. Please remember you are doing all you can in helping him, he is blessed to be home with your taking care of him. Being a caregiver is not an easy task but God provides us through trying times in our life, when you feel beat let HIM carry you and give you rest and fill your soul with HIS peace. You will be able to continue on in whatever challenge lies ahead. Love you Patti, on my way home and using the IPad at McDonalds, gosh it is nice, know Connie will like one as I think she is getting one :) Hugs, Patti and Jack |

Thanks. I am trying to position myself so that my back takes the least amount of strain. I don't think I can use a belt as his spine is compromised from cancer and a fracture, but I will ask. The PA visit today went pretty much like last time. He has to eat and he is the only one that can do that. He has to go for hydration still 3 times a week. I am taking it one day at a time and all the prayers are helping me through this. |
You and Ken are in my prayers daily. |
Patti prayers continue for you and Ken. |
Sending hugs and prayers for you and Ken. Patti, please don't forget to take care of yourself too |
Just wanted to say hello. Thinking of you as always, Patti. Praying for Ken and you. Sending best wishes to your beautiful little furbabies. Quote:

Praying for you both... |
Patti prayers still continue for Ken and you. |
Thanks we are at the cancer center now and his platelets and hemoglobin and potassium are bad. Not sure what's causing it but I don't think ken can take much more. Please keep us in your prayers. I feel I am going to need all the strength I can to get through this. I can't stop crying but I have to pull it together. Thanks so much. |
Sending prayers and loving thoughts to you and Ken. |
Sending prayers and good thoughts to you. I know how difficult it is to go through this, wish there was something more I could do. Sometimes it becomes so hard to remain positive. Wishing no family had to go through this! Hugs Jackie |
praying for you both. |
I wish there was a way I could help. Continued prayers for you both. |
I am keeping you and Ken in my prayers each day. |
Patti, I am praying for you and for Ken. Praying for your comfort and strength. {{{{hugs}}}} |
If only all of the caring thoughts and prayers could take away Ken's and your suffering. . . but I know that these prayers help. You and Ken are in my thoughts and prayers. Please try to remain strong. |
I'm updating for Patti... I talked with Patti a bit ago and she is at the ER with Ken. He is paralyzed on, if I remember right, his right side. I immediately thought of stroke, which Patti did too, but his vitals were okay so they say it may be a brain tumor. Patti is so scared and thank goodness, her sister Liz helped her get him to the hospital and is there with her. They are going to do an MRI of the brain and I asked her if they would get this done tonight. She said a radiologist is there till 8:00. Here at our hospital, if a radiologist is not in the hospital, he has it at home on his computer and can do a report immediately. I would think they would have that there. My heart hurts for Patti and Ken and the whole family. Cancer is such a horrid disease and I truly think it is as hard on the loved ones as it is the patient. Patti is very worried that she can no longer keep him at home. She is going to see if they have hospice rooms at the hospital. Poor Patti...she's got so much heartache in her life. Thank you for your concern and your prayers! |
Such sad news. I'm praying for them both for strength and courage. I wish I could do something or say something to take away their pain. Keeping them in my thoughts and prayers. |
Oh wow.... My heart is breaking for her now. I am sending prayers ...I hope we can help her through this. |
Oh Connie not new's I wanted to read. I'm sending out MEGA prayers for Ken and Patti. My heart is just breaking for them both. I'm glad her sister was there to help her. |
This is so sad. I'm praying for both Patti and Ken. |
This is very sad news to read. I will certainly continue to include Patti and Ken in my prayers. Thank you for letting us know. |
I've talked to Patti a few times in the past half hour and she keeps having to hang up as someone comes in to talk with her. They did a cat scan and that showed no sign of stroke, nor did they see any tumors. The neurologist is doing an MRI of the brain in the morning. I thought that was what he was to have tonight, rather than a cat scan. They said the chest x-ray showed pneumonia, but Patti said that is in the area where the cancer was, so it could be scar tissue or something. She did tell me last night that Ken was having problems breathing off and on, so if it is pneumonia, that would be a good reason why he was having problems. If I get any more updates, I'll let you know. Patti and Ken are waiting for him to get issued a room and then she will probably go home for a while. Her daughter and BF were at Patti's this evening and fed and played with the dogs, so that was a load off her mind. I feel so utterly bad for Patti and Ken. |
Sending prayers. |
I'm a new member here. I just want to tell you I'm keeping you and your husband in my prayers. Take care. |
