Life Update

I'll be updating this as I find stuff out.

I just wanted to update you all about things that are going on with me right now. My husband and our daughter are both in the hospital right now. My daughter had a severe asthma attack yesterday and I had to call 911 for her at 6am. She's doing better now but might have to stay there another night. 

Then at 1pm yesterday I had to call 911 again, for my husband. He had right leg and arm weakness that got worst over a couple of days to where he couldn't walk yesterday. Then he had a seizure and they took him to the ER and did a CT SCAN. They found some spots on his brain so they think he might have a brain tumor. And then this morning he told me that they also found a spot on his lungs and they are going to do an MRI of his stomach because they saw lesions on his stomach. So right now we don't know what's going to happen, if they can treat it, or what all of the spots are. It's all just up in the air and I'm stressed out. Because of the Coronavirus they aren't allowing visitors so I can't even go see him. 

So I wanted to let you all know that's what's going on. I'll still be around but I might be a little late in getting around to everyone's blog for a while.

Update: I talked to Ken this morning and they said he has lung cancer that traveled to his brain. They are going to run more tests before they talk treatment.

Update: They're still doing testing on Ken to see what all is wrong with him. But my daughter came home last night.
