  1. Hello,

    Welcome back!!!! I am so glad you two had the time of your lives!

    I am not an expert here but I think remission means that the cancer is gone. It may be permanent or it may be temporary. I am praying and keeping my fingers crossed that it's gone for good.

  2. TBone,

    Sorry about your news. Take the time to rest, re-charge and re-fill with lots of energy and strength for the next phase of the gameplan. Kick back and relax and before you know it you are ready for the battle again.

    Lots of love and hugs to your entire family.

  3. Hello,

    It has been 1 1/2 years since my Dad passed away but the pain is still there. I do not think that it got less but it's more tempered. My Mom and Dad were living with me at the time of their diagnosis. Mom with breast cancer and Dad with lung cancer.

    Now everytime a board member passes away, it's like my Dad passing away all over again. I experience that empty, hollow feeling again, although less intense but it is sill the same.

    Anyway, these days my focus is in taking care of my Mom. I am as close to my Mom as I was to my Dad and I treasure every single day with her. I am doing this for me and for my Dad.

  4. Fay,

    Thank you for your beautiful post. Becky's passing really touched me because she was so young. I've always looked forward to her posts because she wrote so eloquently and her bravery shone through her words. I felt a connection with her because my daughter is the same age as hers.

    Now, whenever I hold my daughter Becky and her daughter come to my mind. I wish I can channel Becky's warm and loving hugs to her daughter.

    Her death just breaks my heart.

  9. Welcome Shaydie,

    Thank you for joining our group. I was and still am the primary caregiver to my Mom when she was diagnosed with breast cancer and later on to my Dad who died of lung cancer. The hardest decision I made was when we had to call in hospice for my Dad. For a long time I stood my ground against my siblings and Mom when they suggested hospice. For me it was as if we had givne up on my Dad. But once we had hospice I realized that it was the best decision we made for our Dad. My Dad passed away at my home surrounded by my sister and my Mom and me. Hospice was a Godsend.

    Once again, welcome and I hope to see you around as you traverse this awesome site.

  10. Hi Jenny,

    I am so sorry for what you are going throught right now. I've followed your Mom's story and was hopeful that she'd win this battle. I don't really know what to say except that I am heartbroken by your news. This brings back memories of when my Dad was in hospice. Please do not give up hope but at the same time prepare for any eventualities. I can tell that your Mom is a beautiful person inside and out. She is very lucky to have you as her daughter. When my Dad was in hospice we kept telling him how much we love him. When he passed away my grief was somewhat eased by the thought that he knew that he was very much loved by us till the very end.

    Your Mom will be included in my prayers.
