Flutters

I've been having palpitations lately that's been taking my breathe away. It's uncomfortable, but not uncommon with NCS. For more information on Palpitationsand Heart Arrhythmia go to http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/heart-arrhythmias/DS00290 or http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/003081.htm
Until next time...

Today's progress

Today has started off on a weird type of way. I'm having allergy issues and don't really like it. I actually woke up late and my daughter was late getting to school because of this. 

Fatigue and allergies are a real hassle when they decide to join forces, so to speak. I'm dealing with it as much as I can. 

Have you had to deal with really bad allergies so late in the year? What are your best methods to beat allergies?

My brother

So, lately I haven't updated my blog. The reasons for that is that my aunt passed away and two weeks ago we finally buried her! We (my mom and I) got a call the same week that my brother before me has a brain tumor. Every since it has been an unending cycle of rushing back and forth to Little Rock, AR and back to Fort Smith (2.5 hours drive both ways) for the last four weeks! I'm exhausted.

I am blogging now from the hospital's underground parking lot, waiting on my mom & brother. He'll have his surgery next week, so that will be huge for him! His tumor is pressing against his right eye and his brain. We saw pictures today & it isn't a small tumor.

I have a hotel in Maumelle (it is surprisingly nice!!!) I can't wait to go back to. I also have to go home kinda early tomorrow because my new Verizon Wireless Samsung Galaxy Stellar 4G LTE is being delivered! So excited.

Forever and Love,
Natalie

Sleepiness

Today I am extremely fatigued. I had an aunt who passed away two weeks ago from cancer and liver failure. Before she died, my mom and I travelled 2.5 hours all times of the day and night to go see her because she was so sick. The night before her death, we had actually just came back home. We left not even an hour after hearing the sad news.

Two days after her passing (maybe 3 days), my brother discovered he had a golf ball-sized tumor in his brain. The next day we went to be with him at the hospital. This was another 2.5 hr trip. When we got there, the tumor grew and is now the size of a orange. He is in a lot of pain.

My aunt's funeral went well and she was buried on last Saturday. It was a sad, cold and rainy day. She will be greatly missed.
