Maz, I am so sorry to hear that news. (((hugs))) and prayers to you.
FUBC!!

Oh Maz!! Dang it dang it dang it. FUBC!! My heart is so heavy just thinking about what you must be going through right now. It just ain't fair, but then we already know that... I wish there was something concrete that I could do to ease your burden. Please know that you've been in my thoughts so much this week and will continue to be in my prayers every day. I'll be praying for you as you make your decisions about what type of surgery and treatment you will do. And praying for your family, too. Keep us posted. I know I echo all the Jewels' thoughts when I say that we're all pulling for you!
-
Maz: Ditto all the above. BC just sucks and isn't fair at all!! FUBC!!! I'm sure all the other Jewels will agree that just b/c you're back at "square one" doesn't mean we won't be there for you every step of the way again. Keep us posted on what's ahead for you. Lots of big ((((hugs))).
I'm headed to fb now to see if I can figure anymore of it out!

Hi Jewels,
I'm still hanging in there, My pneumonia is rock solid in my lung and is not breaking up, I think thats why not coughing and able to work. LOL. If we all leave this thread I will miss it.
Maz My prayers are with you and pray biopsy is normal. Hang in there gal.
KathyL So glad you joined fb. I'm still confused with it.
Patty I hope you make it to LV Trip. I'm also looking forward to meeting on Feb 18th. It will be nice to finally meet face to face. Have a safe trip too. I remember last yr when you were saying you were dissappointed last yr when you could not make the trip. I'm so glad we all are getting on with our lives. Sat I'm going to look for a new bathing suit for the pool. Mine is so old, I knew I should of work harder to take off this wieght. LOL I can't wait to meet your friends!
Kathy about your MRI, I had one last yr, if they offer drugs take it. I refused the sedative and it was the longest 20 min of my life. Next time i'm taking the drugs. I hope and pray everything turns out well and you are fine.
LJ Oh yes, I was wearing the dork glasses at half time and somehow missed the commericals with the 3-D. I was One was kinda in 3-D, no biggie deal.
SiS Kimberly I'm also having a hard time keeping up, You know I had a Hysterectomy 15 years ago and only suffered hot flashes for one yr. Since I have been on Tamox, I have had more hot flashes. Is that wierd?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO FEBURARY JEWELS.
Carol I'm so sorry to hear about your friend with cancer. Like Paula says "Cancer just Sucks"!
Thank for the info, I won't be disclosing the secret location of the Hotel where Patty and I will be meeting. Can't wait, I'm so pyshic
Julie Congrats to ds for making regionals, I know you r happy.
D1 Sounds like the night went well for your girls. Job Well Done!!
-
Maz, please know that if we could, we'd wrap our arms around you right now. Yes, we've been through this crazy journey together, and we will continue to be of support in any way we can as you tackle some tough space. Your in my thoughts, Carol
-
CRAP, Maz!! I'm so sorry to hear about your news. I ditto what all of the others have said. We are here for you every step of the way -- you will not go through this again without the Jewels right there with you. I've been thinking about you all week and hoping for good news. Please keep us posted. My thoughts and prayers are with you. FUBC!!!!
Sherry - I'm not sure how I missed it, but I didn't realize you were fighting pneumonia! You need to take care of yourself, dear, and not overdo it.
D1 - glad the girls' senior night went so well! Of course, with you in charge, what other way could it go?? You certainly put in your time to make sure everything was perfect for the girls. How's the bathroom remodel going??? Did you find the tile you want after all that driving?
We have a big weekend planned for working in the house - and that's IT!! Dh has no supervising to do at all, which is very unusual. Ds's basketball team won Regionals last night so they're playing in the first game at State on Saturday, but it's only about 20 minutes from our house. You may remember he doesn't play -- he's the "official" videographer for the team.
Carol - I'm so sorry you're not feeling up to your usual chipper self. Hang in there!
Okay - I'm heading over to FB to see what's up there.
{{{{{{HUGS}}}}} to all!
Jules

Maz - I add my prayers and hugs to you. Having to go through it again really is crappy. We're with you, girlfriend. Let us know how things go.
CHJ

Maz, wow, I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry. We're here for you. Be strong, my friend. My thoughts are with you.
D1
-
Oh, Maz, I'm so sorry that you've having to go through this again. We're all here for you.
-
Maz-I type this to you with tears in my eyes...I really prayed no one from our group got a reaccurance. I am soooo sorry. We are here for you...we are your shoulders to lean on.
(big) hug to you......
Patty
-
Maz, I'm just heartsick about your news. There is nothing that I can say that our jewels haven't already said...we're here for you as you go through this...((((HUGS)))).
I've been getting my fix on FB,which I'm getting more used to using, so don't plan to do lots of commenting here anymore...I just can't keep up with everything. I'll check in when I can, but really think I'm going to move on from this site.
See ya all on FB, SIS

Paula I have been taking multi vitamen, Centrum, maybe its not as strong. I kept forgetting to ask the dr for my copy of my Hida scan, I was told I was fine and it was my gall bladder that was not functioning. I ask for a copy of the Hida scan that was taken in Sept. I found out a have a liver problem. I have not told anyone as I'm not sure what is going on yet. I have to go back to dr Sat or Sun. The scan said my liver was functioning, but it show signs of Diffuse and fat. I have noticed sometimes my skin is yellowish. I thought it was due to cancer. My skin was yellow last week when I went to the dr. I have been suspecting a liver problem. From what I can find on the internet, The disease is called "Non Alcoholic Liver Disease" Its from a poor diet and excersize and high cholesteral. I'm going to ask the dr if there is some kind of treatment for me. Well Paula it's a wake up call to get off my butt and excersize and eat better food. I don't know if that's what is keeping my resistance down or what. I'm just so extremely tired, I started coughing this moring, maybe the pneumonia is starting to break up. Thank God, they did rule out cancer of the liver, so I must be fine since dr never mentioned liver findings. I hope you and Ed have a wonderful weekend. I hope Ed is feeling ok.
Maz I will keep praying for you, we love you! Are you on FB yet? I can't remember. It sounds like we are going to say good bye to this thread. I think we all made the move.
-
Maz, dear, wanting you to know you're in my thoughts and prayers. I'm sending all the positive energy and healthful wishes your way. Be strong, we'll always be here for you, friend.
Tina
-
Maz, so sorry to hear the news.
I'm putting my money on a simple recurrence and THIS time, they'll wipe it out for good. I know that isn't much comfort, but it does happen all the time. It sucks sucks sucks, but you know how to get through the treatments, so experience will hopefully make the journey a little easier.
Keep up posted ...
We love ya and are pulling for you.
-
How are you today, Maz? I can almost feel the vibes that are headed your way. You got the Jewel Jewce behind you! I'm hoping that after you share the news with your family and friends that you're setting up your plan and getting your game face ready.
We're here.
((((((hugs)))))))
D1
-
Maz - I too ditto all that has been posted about your re-occurence - Damn!! Every single one of us is here for you, whether it's here or on FB, to lean on. Many positive thoughts & prayers & vibes your way from my part of the world!
So Sincerely,
Therese

BE STRONG!!!!!
FUBC!!!!!!!
-
Maz- just wanted you to know you're in my thoughts today. Sending lots of love and positive vibes your way.... I'm sharing LJ's mindset-- a simple recurrence and a positive outcome. We all wish that you didn't have to go through this, but you're a survivor. I hope that you'll be encouraged by CHJ's experiences, being a two-time survivor herself. ((HUGS))
-
dayum Maz that really sucks ass! FUBC.. jumping on board with the others...we're still here for you.....*hug*
-
HI Maz,
How are you feeling? If you can't find us on FB, go into search and type in Sherry, you will find me. We all will add you to our friend list. Request me as a friend to get it started. Ok see you in FB. Then it will be "Hail Hail the gangs all here"!
When we all say good bye to this thread no tears
.

Thanks to All. Reality is still settling in. I can't believe what I'm going to have to face. You all are the greatest. My biggest regret is that my daughter, 21, moved to Texas Dec. 28, before my mammogram. (2000 miles away!) I miss her terribly. She drove me to my chemo and had to wait out in the waiting room for me. She was such a big help and comfort. My son,18, is home now, but not so much help. The hardest part of parenting really is the letting go.
Not eager to be in that pain place again. Now is the time for the BGP's, right girls? Get this over with and go for broke. At least I'll be symmetrical? I had hoped what I'd been through would have been enough to appease any God. But I am to be further tested.
So how am I? Shaky sums it up pretty good. But feeling all your love. Thanks.
Should I be over at FB already?
Maz

Maz I'm sorry did not know dd moved to Texas. It is hard letting go. I only had one dd and it was so hard to let her go. At least we are in the same state. It was so hard for me when I let her go to college and live in dorm. I thought I would lose my mind. I kept saying "Why didn't I have more kids?" I don't know it's just rough and bad timing for you. We love you and we are here for you.

sherry ok deleted my last name.
-
Come on over to fb, Maz. Sherry has said you can enter her name in the search function to get you started.
Oh, and not sure if you heard, but the BGP are now a thong!!!! The way I look at it, so much fabric crammed up my butt will surely help me forget about what's happening!

Happy Sat JJ's,
Boy I think my pneumonia is starting to make me sick. I just feel horrible today, It must be starting to break up.
-
Maz - There isn't anything else I can say except you are in my prayers. I know that God will continue to give you strength to get thru this. We are here for you. Vent, hell scream whenever you need to. ((((HUGS))))
-
Hey LJ13 - are you coming over to FB? I may have missed if you said so.
And maybe there are some others??? I am still trying to get the screen names with real names over there.
Hope the Jewels are all having the best weekend they can!!!
We are having some great weather here in Arkansas this weekend!!
-
Maz - I am so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Please let me know if you need anything. I live in Poughkeepsie and somehow remember you are not so far from me. I remember you saying that when D1 and I met last summer. FUBC!!!!!
Sherry - hope you are feeling better. Hang in there!

Deb, no, I'm not a Facebook girlie. I'll keep checking this thread, but other than you all, there's nothing to draw me there. It's blocked where I work, and I don't get on the computer at night, so weekends would be the only time I could get onto FB.
