She also has issues with rational thought and cannot do any numbers at all. I have been her medical and financial power of attorney until she hired a lawyer to remove me without my knowledge as she had done with my eldest brother. She is now a ward of the county and has been found to have pancreatic cancer. I do not get phone calls returned often so the information is sketchy. Doctors have not returned my phone call, but my brother Doug is on his way there for a consult where they will decide to have an invasive surgery or not. She is currently in a secured facility nursing home (she twice hit a resident at the unsecured facility so was moved). Her letters and phone calls are fairly incomprehensible. My brother and I talk it through to see what she might be talking about. I have been holding off posting this thinking that I would have a better picture of prognosis since I have been told it's dormant, but since they are talking about invasive surgery I don't know." -- from Leslie Forbes</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(29,33,41);font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(29,33,41);font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">Please keep Neva in your thoughts and prayers.</span></div><span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><div><span style="color:rgb(29,33,41);font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px"><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(29,33,41);font-family:helvetica,arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px">Shelley Hahn</span></div></font></span></div>
