Looking for an Answer

Wednesday, October 10, 2007 - Yesterday was awe-full. Darren & I sat up at the hospital for 4 1/2 hours to end up with nothing. This morning I got on the horn and started pushing. They told me a CT scan wasn't possible till Monday. I spokewith the girl in booking and put myself on a cancellation list. Great news I go today at 1:00 and they do it at 3:00. Things aren't going as smooth with our health care system as I thought. I will keep in touch as much as possible.

Thursday, October 11, 2007 - Was given the diagnosis and I had Stomach Cancer ... this was not the news I was expecting ... thought we were looking at Ovarian Cancer.

He told us that I could go home and to be admitted into St. Paul's Hospital that evening.

When Darren and I got back home we contacted our Family members ... my sisters came to Saskatoon and Darrens sister Sheree came over, it was at this time that they got the official diagnosis. Darren's parents were also contacted in Calgary, where Mike was having an MRI.

Father David was invited to the house to give me sacraments.
