I am the 58 year old mother of Tim who was diagnosed with stage IV follicular b cell lymphoma in March of 2003 at only27 yrs old. Four months earlier his girlfriend committed suicide while he was on vacation, 2 years later his father died in a car wreck and two months later I lost my Mom. I do have another son with 4 children; but they have no contact with us because of our mental and emotional conditions. He claims it is too much stress in his life. My tears are a daily part of my life. Tim is being prepared for a stem cell transplant. The port for the chemo he is to receive is being surgically placed this week. We live about 50 miles from the hospital round trip and eventually we will have to have a place within a few blocks/miles of the hospital. My sons medical and recovery condition can change by the minute. He also drinks at least four to six milk chocolate Ensure drinks daily. I believe it has saved his life. But a six pack costs apx. $7.32 each which weekly equals apx. $45.00 per month. We both live on SS disabilty, him for his cancer; and me for my mental and emotional disability. I am so tired of living thru this but I can't do anything, I can't leave him, I am his Mom.
