My 85 year old aunt, who has worked every day up until 2 weeks ago is very ill. She has been losing weight for about 6 months, (without trying) but for the past month it has really accelerated. My cousin finally got her to go to the doctor , and there will be lots of tests to find the cause. She had lung cancer 12 years ago and has had a clean bill of health ever since... until now. She's shaking, can barely walk. She doesn't complain... and she's not one to run to the doctor with every ache and pain...she has just always been very independent.
She is a wonderful person. She and my grandmother studied with my mother with the hopes of getting her out of the organization. She is the only one of my mother 's sisters (there were 9 girls) that I was close to growing up because of the religion. I live with my cousin, and my aunt lives in a tiny detached house on the property.
I have this awful feeling that she is not long for this world. It just doesn't look good. This is pretty sudden...as I said, she was still working up until 2 weeks ago. My cousin is a basket case... she's an only child. My aunt has lived a long healthy life...and I don't want to lose her..
Lots of pain this week.
