Remember my mom in your thoughts and prayers.. Her voice box is enlarged and has what the doctors are calling abnormalities. She is having a hard time swallowing and when she coughs she is coughing up blood. I am will leave in the morning to make the six hour trip. I will not be on much for the next few days.
They took a biopsy yesterday and sent it off to be tested. The results will not come back till next week. So I will keep those who want to know updated as soon as I know something.
wishing you and your Mom well. Im so sorry. Take care, try not to panic.
This time is very hard. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
My prayers are with you and your family, hope all goes well with the biopsy!
Take care driving! Be safe!
Will keep you and your mom in my thoughts, good luck.
sending good wishes for you and your mom. hope everything will be fine.
You will both be in my thoughts - take care of yourself and your mom. You have my best wishes for her.
Sending good wishes and positive thoughts to you and your family.
I wish you well and God speed and may the prayers of all your caring hub friends help you through this trying time. Peace
So sorry to hear. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. The Hubpages community is the best.
The biopsy came back as negative. Her throat is still swollen ad she can no longer swallow solid foods. She goes to a specialist next wek. I will have an update for you then.
God bless, Samboiam and family.
Glad to hear the biopsy came back negative -- that's a relief, at least.
I know how difficult it is to see a parent become sick. It's a helpless feeling. In my experience, being able to share it takes some of the powerlessness away.
You have many friends and supporters here on HP and we are all rooting for your mom.
Thanks for keeping us posted.

Thinking good thoughts for you and your family - have they thought to do a swallow study? That might be more helpful to figure out if there is a motor problem causing it? I do a lot of rehab reports in my line of work and that is usually one of the first things to do as sometimes difficulty swallowing can be caused by something totally different.
Again, wishing you a positive outcome.

In just over a week I'll be having surgery to remove a non malignant mass in my brain. I have no idea as to what the results will be as it is located in a bad spot and removal or size reduction can bring many side effects, including blindness. I've been dealing with a vision loss for a...

My Mother was in the hospital for nearly a week, and she has been back in her assisted living facility for the past ten days. I had thought that she was actually doing better, but apparently she's more-or-less just hanging on. I feel sad and resigned about this, not fully ready to say Goodbye...

Earlier this evening, my daughter went to the ER because she was having terrible stomach cramps. When I arrived, she was in a hospital bed holding a dead baby. It was a perfectly formed, beautiful baby girl, about 10 inches long. I didn't even know she was pregnant. We're all heartbroken. I can't...
