I have been away for a bit----but you guys are my favorite supporters when there is a problem in our lives!!!
A month ago, Peter lost his Mom (94 years young). She had major problems with bone deterioration and she "gave up" with the pain. She refused to have any nutrition and is now in the space she wishes to be-----with her family by her side at the moment.
Now----last week I was totally bobsmacked with information aout my Mom. She was throwing up and she went to the M.D. thinking that she had the flu. She was admitted right away and with testing she was diagnosed with a Grade 4 esophageal cancer-----OUT OF THE BLUE!!!!! The Doctors we have consulted with state that she has about 3-6 months----I am totally devastated--as you can imagine!!!
My post is to ask you (my friends) what is your favorite shake and/or smoothie recipes? She is in a rehab center until I get to Springfield to care for her until her final day. I leave Capetown next Thursday and will be there for as long as is necessary. She is eating quite well at this time but she seems to have a yearning for the shake/smoothie diet. I will make her favorite foods when I get there.....but that will not be in the cards for a long period of time.
Any suggestions will be appreciated-----the more the better!!! I am not a shake/smoothie person---could you suggest a site for me to visit?? I'm sure you all will come up with superb ideas--------------
I will be in touch again when I get my act together-----in a few months!!
Thank you my friends---I will check in in a couple of days!
Love to you all!!!!
