ambercat Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 Thanks you guys, so much! I had no idea just how many people out there have cancer, until we received the diagnosis and went to the cancer clinic. There is always lots of people there. I was really stunned and in shock the first few months. Things are looking up, but at the same time I don't want the rug snatched out from underneath me. I'm still too afraid to dream or make plans for anything. I just kinda go through it day by day. Quote

Hotplant Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) Best wishes to you and yours. My exhubby developed Hodgkin's shortly after I became pregnant with my first child. It was a long and grueling plight. The treatments "cured" him, but it came back two years later and they treated it more aggressively. He was in remission again. The treatments however, wound up showing horrid side effects years later. The combination of that and a stroke eventually took his life. And a word about those who live through it with the victim: Remember yourself. It can be one of the most stressfull times for the spouse. You are scared shitless, but put up a strong face for their sake. People sometimes forget you may be suffering too. Deeply. The Cancer Society can help in good ways, I recommend them for support. And my Mother, Father, Grandma, Uncle ALL died of the evil C. I can truly empathize. Edited February 27, 2008 by Hotplant Quote
Virginia Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 That's wonderful news! Very best wishes to you both! Quote

My mother in law developped breast cancer some month before, but fortunately she made it and recovered. I thought I was over Mom's loss but reading all this stroke me with tears. All the best for you lot there outside! Tinkerbell Quote
