Not much has happened since the last update.  My one Aunt (Rosie) went back to Germany.  My other Aunt informed me that she's going to stay about another two weeks.  However she hasn't scheduled her flight yet.  I think she wants to wait a while longer and see how rapidly my Mom's condition deteriorates.  It's something where she doesn't want to stay if my Mom will live for six months or more.  But if she's going to die in a few weeks, she'll stay.  Which makes sense.

If she does leave, I'll have to move in with my Mom until she passes.  That'll be difficult, especially if she's in a coma like condition because that'll mean I'll have to clean up shit and and such.  Hooray for me.

Right now, she is ok, but she seemed to be more confused the last time I saw her.  I will go over on Thursday to try and get a bank thing worked out with her.  Though, at this point she's almost useless to get any info from anymore.  She just can't remember anything I need her to remember.  She tries but it doesn't come to her.

Otherwise, she has some slight headaches but nothing else really bothering her.  

In the meantime, I'm trying to get money transferred over in her accounts to pay for the funeral arrangements.  I hope to have that figured out by Thursday so I can proceed with it.  I figure the funeral is going to cost about $20,000.

Twenty thou, Jesus. How do grown-ups make so much money? Best wishes from me, I hope the process doesn't ruin you for a short while like the last time. Get Brian to help you with managing the funeral process.

Really? Twenty Thou? I doubt either of my parent's funerals cost nearly that much.

$10-$15k. Why is it soooo much? D:

It's the burial part that's the expense really.  And a nice casket.  Adds up.  Hopefully I can get the price down when I actually sit with them and go over everything.  This was just a pre-planning form they had and I am certain there is some haggle room.

Cancer Update 05/23/2013

So...  The nurse had come yesterday, left four enemas, sepositories, milk of magnesia, and some red fluid stuff they use for Colonoscopies.  She was supposed to drink that shit today.Unfortunately, and a bit expected, Mom has finally slipped into an unconscious state, and she's running a fever of 102 and has a heart rate of 150.  She's not expected to live for the next two days max.  Her breathing has intensified.  So no poop medication (Anyone need an enema?  I have plenty)  and it's just pain…See More

No more Spill

Well, no more Loading Bar anyway.  The owners made big cuts and axed everyone having to do with TLB.  Probably a serious hardship for Jeff and Jason as they made a fairly decent salary from that show.  Nick and I just used it for spending cash, and really, not even much of that in my situation.  I ended up spending most of the money I made by putting it right back into the show.  I hadn't been on it in a few weeks anyway.  I did offer to help them keep it running as an independent but I think…See More

Cancer Update 05/22/2013

No she's not dead...  Though this one is kinda gross.  Yesterday her friend called me and asked me to have the last rites performed.  My Mom is very catholic, so I called the church and they agreed to send a priest over right away.Then the nurse showed up.  She's filling in for our primary nurse who is on vacation.  She had come on Monday to perform an enema.  It did not work, but she did deimpact her, which basically means she dug into her ass and pulled some shit out.  Mom's stomach is…See More

Cancer Update for 05/20/2013

  On Friday when I wrote the last update, she was very much out of it and I didn't think she'd make it to Saturday.  However, by Saturday morning she was a bit more alert.  She knew who I was and responded when I said, "Good Morning" by repeating that and saying, "Kevin" as well.  So that is a good sign in terms of where she should be mentally and where she actually is.Things are confusing because she has "any minute death" symptoms like muscle wasting (Her arms and legs are loose skin and…See More
