this is Tori...
before the madness started happening...
Tori and her sister in her hospital bed...
in the last few days...
Tori has gone from a swollen ankle and then pain so bad she couldn't stand it...
to being rushed to the ER for xrays to see if it was broken...
to being rushed to a major hospital in Louisville for more tests...
they found a rare form of bone cancer in the ankle...
cancer cells have spread up in to muscle tissue in the leg...
and they had found one grape sized mass in her lung...
she was supposed to start chemo yesterday...
but at the bigger hospital...
they found a total of 4 masses in the lung...
so they ran her into surgery to remove them...
through several incisions, they removed the masses...
and they think they got it all there...
she needs to start chemo, but not sure when...
and they need to find out how far the cancer cells are in the leg before they operate there...
not sure if it will be an amputation or what...
she is our neighbor's granddaughter...
her momma used to live here...
even baby sat our kids some...
Marcie has gone through much in her life...
some of it in the wrong direction...
but she found God and a church and raised her kids there...
this is a real test of faith for them all...
Tori's sister has to go in every now and then to get blood...
this past year, and they haven't figured out why...
she becomes anemic enough to require blood...
so they have been dealing with that...
and her not being able to attend school and being home schooled now...
trials...
life is full of them...
but it hurts the most when they hit us through our children...
please keep them all in your prayers...
more tests are being done...
but the doctors there seem to right on top of it...
time matters in cancer...
and they aren't wasting a minute looking for it...
pray they find it all and stop it in time...
Tori's 13 and full of spunk...
she did great through the surgery and her spirits are high...
but you know how sick chemo can make you...
its hard telling what all this child is going to have to go through on this journey...
just please pray and keep praying...
I will update you as I get news...
