Congratulations Julie on your new little grandson. Over a month old by now! Hopefully everyone is not too sleep deprived! You are so lucky to live close by.
I am just seeing your post. I hope he has continued to heal and what good news that the resection was a success.
KathyWell your last post answers my question! I guess you do live close, lucky you! And you are certainly going to be involved in his life!
Let us know when he’s here!Thanks for the congratulations! I am going April 7 so I can join in the birthday celebrations for our granddaughter (new little one’s big sister) who will be 6 years on April 9. Even closer now for you Julie! I hope you live closer to your grandchildren than I do mine!
Julie…This is wonderful news! I, too, have nodules in my lungs which have not changed since my surgery 4 1/2 years ago…. and we also share grand babies! Mine was born March 11. Wonderful to be here to enjoy!
Keep the good news coming!
KathyAnd my sweet new grandson was born one week ago today! 9 pounds, 8 ounces in Waterford, Ireland. Seems to be in good health although there were concerns (hydrocephalus) in sonograms, but seems everything sorted itself out…scans in 3 weeks. But he is beautiful and everyone (his 3 older brothers and sister) are delighted. He and I had a good Skype
Wonderful news, Anne-Marie. I hope you are enjoying a bit of Australia! All visitors there that I know, love it! Hopefully you are recovered from the surgery and getting on with life.
Hi, Lisa, You know i am THRILLED to hear the good news..you are a superstar! We WILL talk soon, I promise!
xxoo K.Have a wonderful trip to Oregon! I know you will enjoy every minute (and not be deterred by the snow that seems to have hit the East this year
! Such great news about the CA19-9 marker!You are right. I remember thinking I would never see 70, the youngest to die in my family (I’m the third out of four); that I wouldn’t get to see my youngest make it even through middle school…my grandchildren would never know me. It seems to be a whole grieving process and you are right, It IS about family and friends. I am grateful for every chance I have had to be with my 7 children and 6, almost 7, grandchildren.
I recently read on here about the way one man coped with the uncertainty..by being involved in helping others. It gave him a sense of peace in doing this. All of you on this board have given so much in support, it is truly amazing. It’s time for me to expand my circle that narrowed while I dealt with this ( the husband of a friend of mine called it a “dilemma “..fits, doesn’t it?).Kris, Happy Anniversary coming up! Almost Valentine’s Day anniversary
Porter….sorry to hear you are going through another operation. Will be thinking of you. Have a friend who has just gone through her 3rd since original surgery..for scar tissue blockage. I have had a lot of pain on and off, too, with scar tissue. It’s amazing that it continues to form and cause pain so long after surgery. As others have said, you seem to be in good hands and you will get through this. Sending lots of healing thoughts to you for a quick recovery.
Wonderful news, Kris! I understand about going longer..my doctor said if clear in July, I can go to every year! I gasped. He took it to mean I was unhappy to still have to have a scan. I had to explain that I didn’t know if my nerves could take going a full year without reassurances! It is so hard to “let go.” But I am so glad to hear such good news for you all!
Just want to post an update. Just had my 4 1/2 year scan..longest I have gone without a scan..6 months. Clear, CA-19-9 at 19.5. Have another scan at 5 years and if clear, I can go to yearly scans. And yes, I, too, STILL look through the Good News section to stay positive! I never thought I’d get to this point. As with others, many good things have happened through these years and one of the best will happen at the end of February..another grandchild..number 4 for our Irish clan!
Thanks everyone for posting their good news. I love it and I hope you will continue to post.
xKathy
