9-20-06 Update
Hello everyone,
Sorry I have not updated in a few weeks. Things are not much different. She has a few good days and then a few bad days and it goes back and forth. We have not been able to pin point any certain cause that makes her get sick. But when she does have her sick days, she can not keep anything down and she pretty much sleeps all day. That will last about 2 days and then she will feel good for about 2 days.
Her appetite is gone down. When she is not sick she eats but small amounts and not as many times a day, like she was last month. She has got addicted to Starbucks . Mother like daughter :-)
She does not seem to be as depressed as she was. She excepts people coming to visit now, when she is feeling ok that is. With her being sick so often it is hard to make plans to go places or have people set up to visit. It is like one minute she is fine and then the next she does not feel good and then it lasts for a couple days.
She is still able to use a spoon on her own. However she can not pick up her pills or any small candy. So we have to feed her that. She uses her home oxygen from time to time and we use the morphine more now.
There is not much else to say right now. I will update as changes occur. So if time passes without an update that means she is not getting worse.
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers,
Bernice

Valerie,I lift you and your family up in prayer daily....may God give you peace and comfort in all that you endure. You are an inspiration to all who know you. Stay strong in your faith...With love Sammy Diehl (BNS)
Hey Val! Glad your doing some what ok for the time being. I am still keeping you in my prayers. And I do want to come and visit, but as your mother said it would be hard and another thing is, in all honesty...I'm scared to come see you. I'm afraid that if I come and see you I'll cry, and I don't want to do that. But I love you! And your in my prayers always, as well as my family and boyfriends. Hope to hear more soon.
<3 always

Valerie,
I pray for you all the time, even in church. I am so proud of your courage, because I couldn't do it. I miss you seeing you at school and always wonder what can I do. I hope everything starts going better for you. I would come to see you, but I don't know if I could. I really wish that I could something as a mircale as what you did for me, in 9th grade, I really miss you, and just wish that you get better.
Stay strong girl,and I will continue to pray for you, each and everyday.
Love
Chesna
Valerie~I am so sorry so many years passed without seeing eachother, but no matter what you were always on my mind. Let me know when I can come see you with or without your nephews (Nick might run all over the place). In the mean time I'll keep praying for you. I love you so much.

Hi Valerie. My name is Pat Pruss. You don't know me, but I talked with your mom awhile back, about my son Nick Falco. It was clear from our talk how very much your mom loves you - guess you know that though ! I too pray for you, just like alot of folks who lift you and your family up for strength and wisdom and comfort. Anyway, I don't know if you ever liked dolls or stuffed animals when you were younger, perhaps you slept with a favorite stuffed animal. Well, I wanted to share a secret with you. When I go thru a tough time, I sleep with a stuffed bunny or teddy bear - and I'm 52 years old !! So, on those tough nights, if you can't get comfortable to sleep, try it. And remember, you are loved by many.
