    Dear Paul,

    I too think your post may have gotten lost in the shuffle. I also have no experience or answers about chemo but whole heartedly agree with Lainy on getting more opinions. Hopefully now that there are more posts here someone else will catch it that can give you some answers. Oh and welcome. :) Glad you have joined us and hope we can be of some help. Wishing your dad the best on his journey. Please stay with us and let us know how things are going.

    Dear Emad,

    I too want to welcome you to the board. I am glad you have decided to join us but sorry for the loss of your mom. I have and still do feel a lot of the emotions you describe after losing my husband to this disease. I try to think positively that he is no longer suffering or in pain and is in a better place. He will be with me forever in my heart and all the wonderful memories we shared and I’m hoping you will be able to do the same. In time you will begin to heal and maybe then you will be open to the signs that she is still near you.

    Take care dear Emad and know that we are all hear to help and support you in any way that we can.

    Hugs,
    Darla

    Daisy,

    I agree. This is totally unacceptable. Especially that doctor’s attitude. Good call not listening to him. Glad all is well and mom is doing good.

    Julie,

    I’m sorry you are having all these problems. I agree, it is all totally unnecessary. Yes, you are a strong lady as you have shown in the past and you will get through this, too. One day at a time. :)

    Hello,

    Glad you have found this site but sorry you are here because of Keith’s passing. I don’t have much to add to what has already been said, but want you to know that you have my deepest sympathy for your loss . Although nothing can take away the pain and sorrow of your loss, take some comfort in knowing that he is no longer suffering or in pain. Keep him with you forever in your heart and memories.

    Hoping that some of the others can be of some help with your questions.

    Hugs,
    Darla

    Lainy, I think you have just let the cat out of the bag and told the whole world, at least our CC world, your age. :)

    Steve,

    YES! Indeed. I am so happy for you and Liz. From what you have said it sounds like you both have a really great attitude and understanding about all of this. There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to CC. It has a mind of it’s own. For now, enjoy the good news and keep taking things as they come, one day at a time.

    Hugs,

    Hi Porter,

    You have gotten a lot of good advice here already. I know it is hard not to think and feel all of these things, but I have learned that no matter how much you stress and worry the out come is going to be the same. I know 2 weeks is a long time to wait, but there is nothing that will change the results. Please try not to let all of this get you down. I know that this is easier said than done and am also not always good about following my own advice, but I try. :) Keeping busy does help. I read a lot and that seems to help take my mind off of things, if only for a little while.

    If the results are good you have stressed for nothing and if not you go on to plan B and do what you have to do.

    That said, complain all you want if you feel you need to. We are all willing to listen. Know that we are all here to help and support you in any way that we can.

    Don’t be too hard on yourself. You are a strong lady and have been through so much. Thinking of you and hoping that you will be feeling better soon and getting good news in 2 weeks.

    Hugs,
    Darla
