Pamela thread 6 - Bile Duct Cancer, Continued

[WilsonMilson]

Hi all

It’s Kerr here, I wanted to post a quick update as I’m conscious Pamela hasn’t been on for a few days and the thread seems to have reached its limit.

Pamela hasn’t been feeling so good over the last few days - on a positive note, her bloods seem to have stabilised and, all being well, she might be ok for chemo round 2 in the next couple of days. She had a blood transfusion yesterday which, we hope, will also boost her energy levels. On the downside, her jaundice has returned, the bilirubin levels are increasing significantly. The CT scan at the beginning of the week showed no new blockages and our Consultant thought that some early necrosis of the tumour after the last chemo might be contributing, but nobody really knows what’s causing it. Further discussion to take place tomorrow. Seeing the jaundice is one of the worst parts of this, it’s so clear and obvious when it’s happening yet there’s nothing we can do to alleviate it.

Just wanted to let you know the latest. Please, please keep praying for her - she’s my everything, my world, and every thought and prayer is deeply appreciated.

Kerr

❤️

Praying for you and your family, hoping for a positive outcome. Love and healing from me and my family ❤️

Thinking of you Kerr as it’s hideous to watch someone you love go through this and praying for Pamela. She’s never far from my thoughts and I am hoping that the chemo will be an option. Both of you are showing such strength and grace

Thank you Kerr.
We all appreciate you filling us in- a bunch of strangers on the internet. Don't worry about updating us- you've got enough on your plate.

But we are all lurking here - and in our homes all over the world- quietly thinking of you and Pamela and Jacob and sending our love.

Because you don't feel like strangers to us anymore.

Thankyou for the update! I have been following since the beginning and still thinking of you all every day! You are all amazing xx

That’s so kind thank you for the update. Despite the fact I’ve not posted before I’ve been following Pamela’s posts and I think about her often and I hope she is feeling better soon, that she can continue with her chemo my thoughts are with you all. The posts I’ve read from people and the lovely pics of dogs and scenery are so nice and make me feel like there are such thoughtful, kind and wonderful people out there ❤️
