Subject: please help with end stage symptoms of aml
Date: 06/29/2007

Hi, my name is Carol-- my mother-in-law was diagnosed with AML July 06--we did an experimental treatment here in Missouri at Barnes Jewish Hospital--called Decitabine.  She responded for a short time, but now we are in hospice.  I am asking for information on the end stage symptoms of AML-- she is 74yrs old.  The blasts were 87% 2weeks ago in the hospital.  She is at home and we(family) are taking care of her.  She is progressively getting weaker.  Now she is starting to vomit.  She has a horrible canker sore inside her mouth(cheek)--we have been giving her oxycontin--for pain control.  Just want to know how we will know when she is close the end of her days--its so hard to watch her get weaker and weaker.  I do however know that someday she will be free of this horrible disease and be rejoicing in heaven

God Bless,

Carol
