Thanksgiving is a time of year when the family meets together, and celebrates a special dinner. We enjoy the most dehcious meal (which is turkey or,ham), we talk, laugh and just have a wonderful time.
It’s not about money. It’s not about food.
Its about our family and friends, remembering those in need. , Debbie Smoot Wines is fighting sarcoma and a form of leukemia.
Debbie Wines was leading a normal life, working full time at the dialysis center in Front Royal, being a wife to her husband, Jimmie, mother to her children Janie and J.D., and grandmother to Brookelyn, Alexandra, and Kayleigh until mid August when she began having back pain. After many trips to the ER, multiple CAT Scans, MRIs, and bone studies, doctors were still unable to determine the cause of her pain. As the weeks passed, she began to experience multiple falls, ^eventually developing numbness in her abdomen and paralysis of her lower extremities. By mid-September she became unable to walk and was in a wheelchair, being dependent on family for all of her needs. ' On, Saturday, October 7, 2006 her husband, Jimmie, took Debbie to Winchester Medical Center ER and another MRI was performed. MRI findings showed a tumor causing spinal cord compression. Finally we had an answer to the cause of her paralysis. Within an hour, Debbie was in the operating room having emergency surgery to remove the tumor. The surgeon reported he was able to remove only 95% of the tumor as it had adhered to her lung as well. The night of surgery, her family was told she may never walk again due to the severity of the spinal cord compression.
