stephnewyork34 Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Hello all, Mom, Judy B, is going to have a small surgery this week to release pressure, de-clog or something like that. Anyhow all is well, just that she is having some pain and pressure so her drs want to get rid of that. This is going to be much easier than the last surgery and she should be out in one day at the most. I will try to keep everyone updated as much as I know. PS I haven't been on line much as I have had some computer problems and also crazy with the move to Denmark coming up. Quote
niececola Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Hi Steph, Prayers being said for your mom, glad to hear this surgery is going to be easier than the last. Let's us know how you are doing, I know a lot is going on for you right now. When are you leaving for Denmark? Denise Quote
Fay A. Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Tell your Mom that I've just now untangled myself after crossing all movable body parts to insure good scan results for someone else. I shall now recross everything with the hopes that doing so will mean that she has a successful surgery that is EASY on her. She's been through a lot of rough stuff and I'm hoping that this latest surgery will bring the hard times to an end. So,you know you don't HAVE to go to Denmark to hang out with the Danes, right? Just drive up north to the Danish Village of Solvang (not too far from me), and enjoy some shopping, and just hanging out. I'm teasing you, Stephanie. Wish I could hide in Lucie and Dan's suitcase while they visit Scotland, and then I could mail myself to Denmark to visit you. Quote
Rick Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 We love you JudyB!! Let us know when its all done.. Im sure she will be fine... Quote
Connie B Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Hi Steph, HI My BUD, JUDY B!! Thank you Steph for the update. I was just thinking about your mom last night, and you beat me to the punch on giving us an Update. I did PM your mom over a week ago, and she said she was having some pain. (DAMN!) Please let her know I am saying LOUD PRAYERS for her. She is very loved here, and I for one MISS HER, AND YOU! How are YOU DOING???? Love to the family, Connie Quote
natalie Posted March 8, 2004 Posted March 8, 2004 Hi Steph- Thanks for the update! We've been thinking of you two! I pray that Judy recovers well from the surgery and I hope your move goes smoothly. Take Care Quote
cathy Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Prayers being said right now for our friend Judy, hoping you will soon be feeling better Quote
norme Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Tell Judy we sure miss her. She needs to mend and get back online. Hope you can still find us from Denmark.......we all may come and visit.... Quote
Don Wood Posted March 9, 2004 Posted March 9, 2004 Stephanie, thanks for the update on your mom. I sent my prayers and good wishes. Don Quote
JudyB Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Thanks everyone for the very needed support!!!!!! I have met w/the neurosurgeon (same as last one). He will be operating from my back to "de-bulk" and get out as much of this tumor as possible. The surgery will take place Mar 24. He will give the tumor some room to throw off inflammation by removing some bone in vertebrae. This is "EASY" surgery. Will take about an hour. They will keep me over nite, maybe longer. Don't know yet. The cyberknife will continue to work. It's unfortunate that the drs here (and also PHX) don't fully understand what that procedure is continuing to do. Oh, well. . . Steph & I will have updates! Maybe by the time I get passed this little bump our outdoor kitchen will be done! It's looking realllllllly cooool already. But mainly I want OUT OF THIS JERRY LEWIS LOOK ALIKE CONTEST!!!! Found out this steroid is also responsible for taking away thigh strength. Boy, does it have nasty side effects!!!!! JudyB Quote
berisa Posted March 12, 2004 Posted March 12, 2004 Judy..good luck and best wishes to your surgery. Quote
stephnewyork34 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Posted March 16, 2004 Hello all, Please say a prayer for Mom as I am worried about this one. I know it is suppose to be easier but you know it is my job to worry. I know that Mom is having a lot of side affects from the steroids and also this stupid tumor, anyhow, thanks for all the support and please say a prayer, HUGS Steph Quote
J.C. Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 Stephanie Prayers going for good results of the operation and a speedy recuperation. Hugs J.C. Quote
Connie B Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 Hey My Buddy Judy B, Is the OUTDOOR KITCHEN DONE YET??? HUMMMM steaks on the grill will work for all of us on the board. What time is dinn dinn?

I AM sending you those POSTIVE VIBES that you alway send everyone else, and I sure hope to see you posting more and more. You know your always in my prayers. So, do you REALLY LOOK LIKE Jerry Lewis?

Debaroo Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 Stephanie, I have been wondering how our JudyB is doing. Please send her my love, and tell her that she is greatly missed here. She is in my thoughts and prayers, always. Take care,Deb Quote
mhutch1366 Posted March 16, 2004 Posted March 16, 2004 Judy, Hope you're feeling great in no time. Seriously, slow and steady will get you there. Hope you have minimal problems with the steroids also. Nasty bit of work, those, even if medically they do work. Mentally very rough, roughest med I've ever taken. So feel better, and come talk to us again soonest. XOXOXOXOX MaryAnn Quote
stephnewyork34 Posted March 16, 2004 Author Posted March 16, 2004 Thanks everyone, we are having a bad day today as a family I think we are all feeling it. Mom is still on for surgery for next week and we are hopeful that this will be positive and Mom will get better soon, but we are human and some days are harder. Hugs to everyone and thnaks for the support. Quote
ginnyde Posted March 17, 2004 Posted March 17, 2004 Judy B, You are a stalwart member of this wonderful group. We need you back here fast and feeling good. I start my 3/26 prayers early. Ginny Quote
karen335 Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 Steph/Judy, Your mom is in my prayers each day and praying for a Cure for all of us. Why is this disease so complicated and stubborn. Please Steph, keep us posted on how you mom is doing. I just came from Nuero Surgeon today too. I will have surgery in about 2-1/2 weeks too... Blessings and hugs from So. California... Karen Quote
