Jeff G.YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We love a success story! Thats what we wait for no matter whose it is! Stay strong, stay optimistic and many prayers help the cause along!
THANK YOU ALL !!!marion, sue, iris, kris , charlene, anne, jeff, lainey and joyce PRELIMIMINARY REPORT LOOKS REALLY GOOD!!!!!!! AHHHH releif from the unbeleivable anxiety of not knowing. Needless to say I am exhausted after a sleepless night and an extrememly long day ending with such good news. I go back in November to do it again…I imagine I’ll be nervous again hopefully not as bad as I’ve been. My husband said “I knew you were fine” I did NOT know that and it went right through me..what a crabby wife huh? It really hasn’t hit me yet… after a good nights rest I am sure it will. :} It has meant so much to me to have the support that I received here where people truely understand. thank you all, deb ps I would love to email privately as well as soon as I am more awake. God Bless us all!
Deborah,
I hope your scan goes well. I too become a nervous wreck before a scan (usually about 1 month before!). You are in my thoughts.kris
Hi Debrah, my thoughts are with you tomorrow and I’ll be talking to you. I know how tough it is allways to be the “strong one”, but I also know you can do it one more time. I keep all my limbs crossed that the outcome will be good!
Iris.Debrah,
You are probably already up and at ’em today, but I wanted you to know I will be thinking about you. I understand and relate to every word you wrote. CT scans are tough. The days right before it are so mentally challenging. The “what if’s” can really fill up your mind. Until I hear my doctor say it looks fine, my blood pressure is probably thru the roof.
Also, I have the same “problem” with my husband. Some days I really want and need to talk about how I feel and my fears, and I get the same “You’ll be fine.” I’ve often wondered if he even remembers I had cancer (not that I need to rehash everything every day.)
I was lucky enough to have a liver resection in 01/2007 with clear margins, but that doesn’t mean I feel any better going into my scans. The stats say that there IS a survival rate, but how long is “survival”? Jeff is at over 9 years. Nine years of fighting this! He is our inspiration!
Soooo….all we can do is go day to day, and try not to stew about the scan for more than 2 days beforehand. I really have no good advice. My family always seems to be full of advice…just relax…you’ll be fine…the test results will be good…
But they don’t understand. On this board, we all understand. And we are all rooting for you today. Please let us know the results as soon as you can.
Take care,
Suecharlene, anne, jeff,lainy, joyce………….I wish I could give you all a hug to thank you all for your understanding..it helps alot. I wish it was not so late bc I would really like to write more but have to get up at 2a.m. to take more prednisone and be out the door at 5 a.m. thank you for being my angels
I will try to write more tomorrow..hopefully I will be embarressed for freaking out. :: God Bless you all! deb
