So far mamaw has gotten really good reports from the doctor's. The plastic surgeon that removed her skin cancer is pretty confident he cleared all margins. YEAHHHHHHHH
Yesturday she saw her PCP and got even better news......the spot (swelling) on her brain is a lession that she probably has had for years and he does not think it has anything to do with Cancer! Praise God!!!!!! The next step is to check the spot on her spine. Please pray that this test will come back with good results as well.
This amazing 93 year old lady is definatly my "HERO"! God Is Good!!!
Welcome to Billy's Place. I (Billy's mom) have created this Blog to keep everyone updated on how Billy and family are doing!!!

Prayers for Mamaw O.

Please pray for Billy's Mamaw O. She is 93 years old, back in January she was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and under went a lumpectomy. She has also been struggling with Squamous Cell Carcinoma( Skin Cancer). Monday she had surgery to remove some of the cancer from her face...the doctors believe the prognosis may not be that great..they fear they were unable to clear all margins. She will get the oficial results this coming Monday. Today she was admitted to the hospital do to some leg weakness and a funny feeling in her head. A ct scan was done and the findings were not good. She has some swelling on her brain and they found a spot on her back. They will be doing some further testing tomorrow.
Mamaw O. is an amazing lady...she has not let her age slow her down one bit.
She still lives by herself and occasionally drives her self to church and the grocerie store.
"Please lift her up in your prayers".

A Hard Way To Learn Respect For Our Moving Toy's
Some times in life we have to learn lessons the hard way....................
Last Saturday Steve and Brittany went motocross racing. Before Brittany's race all the guys got her really pumped up and I think I also heard something about some sugar and mountain dew. She really wanted the win, more than usual........
Her first moto she was doing really good until the pressure was a little more than she could handle,she got throttle pinned and went over the handle bars "hard" face first. We spent several hours in the ER that night. The pictures will tell the rest of the story..................
These two pics are just reminders of that beautiful little face
This is how she looked when Steve brought her home............Yes I freaked!!!!!!!!

Usually hate it when I can't go to the races with them...

"DOCTOR'S" got to love them........NOT!!!
Okay, I am climbing aboard the wonderful soap box train again.......
I called about Billy's chest x-ray yesterday, just like the doctor told me to. Of course you never get to speak to a human.....and of course the "electronic " a## says leave a message and some one will get back to you within 24 hours and only leave one message. So.......... that is what I did, one message, waited 24 hours. Do you think any one returned my call, NO of course they didn't.
So 24 hours from my call yesterday I call again, finally this afternoon they call me back, I finally get to talk to a human. First of all they proceed to tell me that they have lost Billy's chart (they could not find it the other day when we were there either). Tell me........... how do you loose a chart that is the size of three encyclopedia's??????? Anyway lets get to the results of the chest x-ray. After the nurse went back and forth asking the doctor questions, because I was not going to except that he read it, signed off on it so it must have been okay, This is what I got...........He is STABLE............................."Stable" What the Hell does that mean??? Can anyone tell me, Please?????
I just can not believe this. I wanted to know for one, has Billy's lung re inflated itself, has the collapse done more damage,etc. Sorry, Sorry ,Sorry, I am just so ill, I could scream.UGGGGGG
Okay I am going to calm down and report that Billy had a really great day. The weather was beautiful. We were able to get out side this afternoon. Billy and Spencer got to ride the golf cart. I wish I could have gotten some pictures but these two wild monkeys had to be watched very carefully. We are hoping for more great weather this weekend so we can join daddy and Brittany at the race track "Muddy Creek". Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!!

The Waiting Game once again
I really cant wait to start posting about good stuff, fun stuff or just good health stuff.
But for now I am going to post about this not so fun day. We had to take Billy back to the Pulmonologist today. He has been having trouble breathing. He is fine when he inhales but struggles with his exhale. What was the answer from the Pulmonologist????? No clue. Don't get me wrong , this is the best doctor ever he has been my saving grace for almost 11 years. The problem is Billy's saturation's are awesome, he sounds good and has no other symptoms. He is just having trouble exhaling. His whole chest and stomach sink in. We took him for a chest x-ray and will find out the results tomorrow. Steve and Dr Mohan decided they think it is neurological, thinking it is stemmed from the status seizure. I on the other hand do not feel comfortable guessing. I want facts. The thought of something happening scares me to death, I can't imagine having to do CPR on him because of something that could have fixed or prevented. I know I am being paranoid but I am a "mom ", that's what we do!!!!!
Please keep Billy in your prayers, I am praying that dad and doc are right after all the test come back.
So once again we are playing the oh so dreaded "Waiting Game"
