    Thanks for all the prayers for surgery.  I Know God will be there with me all the way.  I am going to Vermont to see my sister this weekend before Surgery I know I won't be going anywhere after that for a while.

    Lynniea, you will be up and about a lot quicker than you think. There are no bones, organs or muscles involved (unless you get recon) so it is a very quick recovery. The node area is the only area that will be painful. You might want to be aroud home for the first week to 10-days, that's all.

    Mum, you are in my prayers today. Please let us know when you get the results! Of course you're nervous, we all are when we finally get the guts to tell the doc that we have an area of concern. You are being proactive which is a lot better than hiding your head in the sand....

    Mum, the waiting for the appointment is always the hardest. I don't fret once the wheels are in motion. How fast you get your appointments will determine their thinking, I always figure. Let us know when the appointments are set.....

    Much love, sweetie!

    We are picking Matt up from the airport today in 11 hours!  He has been gone for 6 years!

    When I spoke with Matt yesterday he was a bit down.  He saw the cardiologist to get checked out before coming home.  The surgery failed.  He is now facing and additional catheter surgical procedure or open heart surgery.  He is to see a cardiologist in CA (no referals from the military as of yet) within two weeks.  Please pray that the red tape and bureaucracy, now that he is leaving active duty, will be minimal.

    Hi ladies.Good to hear Matt will be closer to home now as he deals with his health issues.(((Meece)))

    My DH and I went in to my Onc appt.He laughed when he saw my husband and said you must be really worried. Apparently the ultrasound showed 3 spots of concern on my ribcage so now I have to wait until 26 for another bone scan which they will compare to the one I had 6 months ago.My follow up will not be until Aug.(waiting game)Undecided

    Well, he is home!  Thank you all for your traveler's prayers.  His flight was nearly 2 hours late which was nerve wracking.  Not that I was concerned over his safety, but I was ready to have him home.  I don't remember how old Matt was in that photo, I am guessing 3 months.  He was a big boy.

    A family friend who has navigated the waters of the VA and disabled vetrans, is taking Matt to LA to the VA and VA hospital to get the ball rolling on Monday.

     Mum! I am so sorry that you are going to have to wait more time.  It can be so stressful. I will pray for your peace as you wait for the next test and the results.
