Hola Familia,
Today, Sa completed one week of radiation! She met with Dr. Weidhass and asked if she would be able to travel to Florida to celebrate Ani's 50th birthday in December. Dr. Weidhaas responded positively and said she saw no reason Sa could not go. This is great news for Sa.
Unfortunately this past weekend, Sa's new caregiver was cancelled at the last minute. The caregiver fell through, because she was fired from the agency shortly after Sa agreed to hire her. This incident was particularly discouraging because the caregiver's boss had highly recommended this caregiver to Cristina and Sa days before. Apparently she was not as wonderful as her boss had previously said. Thankfully, Cristina was able to accommodate Sa at her house and gladly helped Sa for the weekend. However, there is still alot that needs to be done in regards to finding adequate care for Sa on weekends and for when Victoria leaves in December. This matter has been the source of alot of anxiety and worry for Sa. Sa has also been feeling down because Amaryllis ( her previous weekend caregiver, who Sa is very close to) has been going through a lot of personal issues. Her sister, Janet who helped care for Papo, recently suffered a heart attack and now needs assistance with her recovery. Sa wishes there was some way she could help Amaryllis and Janet. Please keep them in your prayers.
Another great concern of Sa's is how Thanksgiving weekend will play out. She has been reminded that the Docal family is large and there are many helping hands. We have told her not to worry because these helping hands will work together to make it a wonderful holiday for everyone.
Physically, Sa has had some very good days. Most of her issues have been related to emotional stress and anxiety.
This it for the update of November 7, 2011. Love to all.
