On May 13, 2011, our mother, Cindy, was diagnosed with stage 4 Non small cell lung cancer (adenocarcinoma). She has never smoked a day in her life. Since being diagnosed, as a self-employed and charitable family law attorney she continued to work hard for others in need. We sincerely thank you for your contribution, prayers, and support for our mother.

Side effects are really kicking in this week and its been painful for mom

I think mom is having a stronger mix of emotions this week. I think we all are. Mom is starting her 4th week of this new trial drug tomorrow and the side effects have started and are taking a toll. She has been in even more pain and is struggling more with keeping upbeat. She is doing her best and trying so hard. It is difficult to go about each day with the pain and changes. She is so wonderful to be around and is always helping others, but I see her trying to hide what she is really feeling and overall we just feel like crying.We, also, lost a good friend and a great man of God this last week who has been an ispiration for all humanity. He prayed with mom and was comforting, but he has returned home. He left behind a wonderful family and we are praying for them and know they will get through this and honor him.

There are just so many questions and confusion. There is depression and lonliness. There is a loss of identity. We all suffer in some way or another, but this by far the most difficult we are facing.

Mom will answer texts if you have her number and she will check email. Thank you all so much for your continued support and prayers.

-Vanessa
