Connie B Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Oh Bucky, Your fears are so real and totally understandable. Is there HOPE? You bet there is! This little bugger tumors can be ZAPPED away. They have good results with cyberknife/gammaknife. It's the fear of the unknown. We all have it and go through it from time to time. I'm going to send you tons of positive hugs and vibes. These are the times that we have to do that "One Day At A Time" life style living. And in some cases, "On Minute At A Time." Hang in there, we're here to throw you the rope and pull you out of that ugle hole your in.((BUCKY)) Don't forget there's ALWAYS HOPE and these tumors can be ZAPPED AWAY! Lets call for the road grader again so we can clear that bump in the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bev'sSister Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Bucky, my sister would get like that too. She finally had to get the Dr. to give her something for it. The depression can go too far sometimes, and you need help to get back to the right frame of mind to fight this beast. Maybe your Dr. could prescribe an antidepressant for you, and if you are on one already, maybe he could switch up. I hope you start feeling better real soon. We all know that you have to have a positive attitude to fight this awful disease and that has to be the biggest challenge of all. You take care of yourself and keep us posted. Love, Bobby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish2418 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Sending hugs to you, Bucky. There's lots of hope for you as there are many successful treatments for brain mets. Hang in there and have faith that the treatment will work. Trish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laban Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Bucky, Cry, yell, scream all you want. We'll listen. I do know that when a person is diagnosed with brain mets these days, there are so many more options with excellent results that your chances are most likely very good. Prayers for you and your family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don M Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Hi Bucky: there is hope. I suppose like me and many others, you just get tired of doing the cancer thing all the time and so it is easy to slip into a dark place. Just hang in there.

ernrol Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Bucky, There is always hope. You mentioned flowers in the spring. Have you read Kasey's story in the My Story Forum? This will take you there. http://lchelp.org/l_community/viewtopic.php?t=15264 Stay positive, Ernie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carolhg Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 YES! There is hope and many good outcomes to cyberknife. YES! Brain tumors can be zapped away. You hang in there, you will feel better when you get those mets zapped away. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fillise Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Bucky--YES! You can hope, please don't lose that. I can't know what you are feeling, but there are many here who have seen more springs and more flowers than they ever though--and even someone (ahem--BLAZE) who has gotten so far back to normal that she forgot to look at the flowers this year (actually, Blase--that's my new difinition of normal--the ability to take things for granted). I'm sending you (((((Hugs)))), Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wondermom Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 Yes, there is most definately hope! My mom has had brain mets as well. She had whole brain radiation and it took care of them completely.
