  1. Dearest Amanda,

    I haven't been here very much lately but have read so very many of your posts and want you to know how sorry I am to hear of your dad's passing.

    Comfort and hugs to you and your family.

    Love, Libby

  2. Michele,

    Your words really touch my heart...I have no words or magic *anything* that will ease your pain.

    My mom is still with us and putting up a valiant fight against this horrid disease but my dad is gone. He absolutely adored spring as it was his time to plant his garden. For me, it is just another reminder he is not here.

    Oh, Michele many prayers that you and your family find comfort.

    Your baby is just beautiful.

    Blessings,

    Libby

  3. Thank you for your prayers. It means a lot.

    Don't know too many details other than ma was referred to a gastroenterologist. Most likely, she will have a colonoscopy because a mass was felt :(

    Just gonna take this one day at a time and not borrow trouble. (easy to say, huh)

    Will update you as soon as I know anything. Kaiser moves slowly so it will be a while I think.

    Again, thanks

    Hugs and prayers to all

  4. I am pretty upset so hope this makes sense.

    Talked to my mom last night and she said when she went to the bathroom and there was blood. She said she thought *it was vaginal* (she had a total hysterectomy yrs and yrs ago for a benign fibroid)

    She couldn't remember if it was brownish or bright red in color.

    She made an appointment with her GYN for this morning and just called me. Apparently, she has a *tumor* (her words) BUT she got so upset that she did not even ask where. The doc examined her vaginally and rectally. She thought maybe rectal but really doesn't know. GYN doc said to make an appointment with her primary care doc which I don't understand but she was so upset I am not sure how much she understood. I hate that she is scared.

    I just put a call into Kaiser and they will get a hold of the GYN doc and hopefully he will call me and at least give me *some* idea of what she is dealing with. I also emailed her Radiation Oncologist as he and I communicate every few months via email and maybe, just maybe he will find out what's going on and call me.

    We could use a few prayers...Damn it, I so hate cancer. Praying it's not mets to the colon. My dad died of colon cancer.

    Sorry this is so long but I don't know where else to turn. My brother just called and I don't want him freaking out cuz he has MS and all this stress is not good for him..guess it's not good for anyone.

    Praying for everyone

  5. ((((Mendy))))

    I am not in your shoes..but wanted you to know that it's absolutely fine that you post your frustrations. I think every single one of us have felt the same sort of feelings, whether we voice them or not.

    You are doing so, so much and it's important for your well being to try and arrange some *alone* time for yourself. It really will help.

    Just know we are here, ok!

    Sending love and prayers

    Libby
