Steve, I also want to add my warm welcome to you. So many of us felt much as you two are feeling right now. What is it? Why did this happen and on & on. I wish you hadn’t had to find us, but am glad that you did and you will be too. I wish you didn’t have a need to be here, but know that this is the best place to be for help and support when dealing with this disease. Your fiancé has a lot going for her. Her age and her good health previous to diagnosis and also the surgery and ability for more surgery. We are all here for you to help in any way that we can. Keep us updated as to how things are going.
Hugs,
DarlaDear Deepak,
I too am glad that you had those years with mom, but am sorry to hear she has passed away. You and your family have my deepest condolences. Try to take comfort in knowing that she is no longer suffering or in pain. Keep her with you forever in your heart and memories.
Hugs,
DarlaDhill,
Also want to welcome you. Most of us never heard of this cancer before. You have found the best place to come for help and support.
I agree with all above. Lainy is the go to person for the signs and another opinion can’t hurt.
Stay with us and let us know how your brother is doing. As Lainy said, his comfort is most important at this point.
Take care,
DarlaJulie,
Glad to hear you are getting some help and things are improving. Then a tornado warning on top of everything else. Glad that also turned out OK. Oh well, just another bump in the road.
Love,
DarlaDear Crissie,
I am so sorry to hear that your father has passed away. I too am glad you were able to spend those last days with him. Take some comfort in knowing you were there for him and that he is now no longer suffering or in pain. There is nothing I can say to soften the pain, sadness and confusion you are feeling. I know that it is hard to imagine right now, but eventually time will ease your pain. Know that he will always be with you in your heart and fond memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this sad and trying time.
Love & Hugs,
DarlaCrissie,
I’m so sorry it has come to this point. No one can predict how things will go, but I think getting that information from Lainy will be a big help to you. I also agree with what KrisV posted above.
Know that I am thinking of you and keeping you and your dad in my thoughts and prayers.
Love & Hugs,
DarlaJulie,
Your attitude is amazing and will help you loads on your journey. There will be a lot of ups & downs. Come here to vent whenever you feel the need. Know that we are all here to help and support you in any way that we can.
Glad that grandson therapy is working, too.Love & Hugs,
DarlaOlga,
Glad you have found us, but sorry you had to. I can’t add much either, but I do know how you are feeling as I too have been there. Just know that you have found the best place to be when dealing with all of this. You will get so much help and support from all the wonderful people on this site. We all get it. Come back often, even when you just need to vent. We understand and will listen.
Love & Hugs,
DarlaJulie,
Sorry you had such a bad day. Hoping the “grandson therapy” makes it all better.
Have a good day.Love & Hugs,
DarlaCongratulations! Such great news. How can you not be in good spirits.
Hoping for the best for you both and good news on future scans. Thanks for sharing your good news with us.Lola,
I’m glad your dad spoke up and that the change seems to be helping control your mom’s pain.
Hugs,
DarlaWow Kris, you & Mark are sure dealing with a lot right now. Hope you can get some help from the doctor tomorrow and can get this all sorted out. Also hoping that what ever way you decided to go on the job situation it all works out for you. Unfortunately life does have to go on even while dealing with all of the things involved with being a caretaker. Making all these decisions and trying to work it all out is not an easy road, but I know you will make it work. Just remember that you never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have and dealing with CC, it is our only choice, to stay strong. Just keep taking it one day at a time.
Lots of love & hugs for both of you.
Darla
Hi Owen,
Glad to meet you, but sorry for your reason for being here. You are definitely on the right track. Reading the 100 questions and searching topics out here and also feel free to ask whatever you need to and someone will hopefully be able to help you out. Even if you just need to vent, we are hear to listen.
Welcome to the club that none of us wanted or expected to join, but are so glad we are here. I’m sure you will be too. Looking forward to hearing more from you as you work your way around the site and also to hear more details of your situation and how you are doing.Darla
