This is @Mearthe’s daughter. Im so glad she’s had so many people in her corner through her fight. She passed peacefully this morning surrounded by her daughters and the love of her life. Thank you for being her support and friends. We appreciate it immensely.

@ouachitawoman I’m not sure if UAMS will do that but I mentioned it

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

At UMSICU. Cut my brain open to let it drain. Headaches are better sense. I’m having brain surgery Thursday to remove two tumors in my brain but there’s one they can’t get to.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@ouachitawoman I’m not sure if you buy a mess will do that but I will mention it

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Going to LR tomorrow, Had to go Monday anyway for a biopsy Tuesday. Will end up at the ER cause I cant take this pain. Just got my monthly pain pills yesterday but my tolerance is very high,

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@SusannWalters I hsf them for radiation which worked but ended last Nov. Ugh on cervical vertigo but i have ne neck pain at all.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Beginning to suspect I might have a brain tumor, Can barely print, walk like a drunkin' soldier with awful balance. Have stabbing headache when I move my head. Was constant after 1st night of immunnothready last week but chalked it up to ear scrapping at UAMS the day before,

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Made me throw up twice last night but then remembered my anti-nausea meds I had from chemo. Taking those stopped my sickness.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Have a biopsy Tuesday of my left arenal gland so will try to give a head x-ray that day.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Putin should take heed of one of my favorite savings, though I doubt he cares: The only just war is one on your own soil. Russia isn't the only nation that should learn that though.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@SusannWalters I'm okay just awfully quiet lately. Thanks for asking!

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Had to get up 3 hours early for my dr's appt to find out if my treatment worked. One thing I worry about is whether I'll be able to understand him when he gives me the news. Usually I have no problem with people who English isn't their first language but not him.

@tgiff76 Hey. I'm okay just awfully quiet lately. Thanks for asking!

@LynneWa59888879 Great photo! You ought to use it as your profile picture.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@ashdmitch Mine has finally grown to over 1/2" & isn't sticking straight up. Still have a long way to go before I don't wear a hat all the time.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Thanksful to have power! Heart goes out to those in the east part of the state that do not.

Kuddos to cops, utility workers, first responders, road crews & others having to be outside today.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Conway folks: how much of our town has buried power lines? Since thinking about it, I can’t remember seeing any at all.

That may have more to do with my memory than availability of lines though.😁

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@Beazus Yes. Or maybe depending on icy roads. My oxygen levels are almost back to my usual baseline so I'll be okay. Hope the ice misses us though.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Wasn't too concerned about weather tomorrow until I got a robocall from my oxygen provider yesterday. 😬Hadn't thought about power losses. Doubt I can talk them into bringing me a large tank today. I should be fine even if not.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

@BobArky Glad to hear you are still okay!

Per the clerk, I wasn't the only one who'd already changed my appointment today.

[Mearthe @Mearthe]

Thanks for all the kind hopes for a good outcome from my CT scan. Always thought I'd have to go through treatment twice but since my breathing has improved in last few weeks, maybe not. Still wearing oxygen around the house but I don't have to stop to catch my breath when I'm not
