Thanks Lainy and Lisa. I am trying to put it in prespective, but it sure brings back the same feelings as when this was first found.
I really appreciate your support…it helps so much just to know there are people out there that really do understand.
Thanks for being there! I’ll keep you posted.

Such VERY good…such WONDERFUL news!!!! I had been wondering how you were doing.I also had very good news last Thursday! I had my first scan following my surgery in May and met with the surgeon immediately after. The results were great, or as he said “there are absolutely no areas of concern”!!! Next scan in 3 months then to 6 months.
I feel such gratitude..so blessed for what I have been given.
As you said, YES, there is good news out there!

I’m so sorry that they weren’t able to do the surgery. You really do need time to get yourself together…given all that you’ve been going through. I think you’ve shown amazing strength through all of this. I am a bit puzzled why they didn’t have information about the fatty liver…why they didn’t note this on a prior CT. It does show up on scans, but evidently not always, given your circumstance. Know that you’re in my thoughts and am wishing you strength and peace in whatever decisions you may make.Jean

I am so very glad you’re going ahead with the surgery…I know it has been such a struggle to have made this decision. But, I think it is what you need to do. And what a time to have to do it…I just can’t imagine. My beloved father died a year ago and I miss him still so very much. He lived a long and good life…and was so loved. I know what a hole it leaves in your life to have just lost your mother. And now you’re facing the surgery tomorrow. I just know you will do well…strength and hope are so powerful.
Think of getting well as your new “full time” job. Do all of the deep breathing and coughing, get up and around early and often, eat well, take as much pain medication as you need…it will greatly help with all of the above! Bring some familiar things…maybe your own pillow, bathrobe and PJ’s. They just make you feel better!
I wanted you to know that you have been so much in my thoughts and was so glad you let us know you were going ahead with the surgery. Know that we will all be sending such positive thoughts of hope for your healing.

Thank you Karen…I’m very sorry to hear about your husband. It is indeed a horrible disease. It takes a great deal of strength and courage to deal with…wishing these for you and your husband. And for hope.

Thank you so much for your reply! Your story gives me so much hope and strength…I don’t really have words to say how much this means to me. I’m sure you know!!! Thank you so much…I needed your words so much at this moment. Hope is such a powerful thing…know you have given me that at a time when I so needed it.
