MI Survivors

Kay,
So sorry to hear this news.
I will definately be thinking postive thoughts for his acceptance at Boston Medical University for treatment.
Like Gerri said he has you on his side and that is definately a plus.

Mary

Oh Kay, I was so sorry to read about your husband this morning. My thoughts and prayers are with you both. I know this will be another tough journey, and I'm hoping for the best outcome for you and your husband. Please keep us posted.
Love Julie

Kay - This is so unfair. I too am sorry to hear about your DH, and will be adding my prayers to everyone else's. Having you on his side is definitely a plus.

Take care, and please keep us posted.

Irene

Thanks to you all, sisters. Yes, my DH and I think this is not fair too. But, then, nobody every promised that life would be fair, sis they? Those of us here know that better than anybody else.

The first thing you could all do is pray that the drugs that Ed will start on Tuesday will halt the progress of this disease, and clear up some of his symptoms.

And then you could pray that he's accepted into the transplant program at Boston Medical University.

And if you have any prayers left over, then talk to the man up stairs about the transplant being successful.

I'm not going away. I'll be pestering you guys about supplements, and MSG and stuff for a long time. VBG

As far as I'm concerned, I have a Dr's apt tomorrow evening. I'll take my husband with me--she's our family doctor, and we both trust her implicitly. I'm asking for a tranquilizer--enough is enough, already!

Praying for
a successful transplant

Hanging onto to hope
and light for both of you

Kay - I'll be sending positive vibes your way today. Let us know how it goes.

Irene

Yep, I'm done. A little nervous because when I went in for my positioning appointment with the rad onc last Monday, she said we had to get fresh CT and bone scans because of the "suspicious" areas on my base lines. My med onc says not to be worried, that she's not and that the rad onc tends to be very careful; but I'll still be happy to get official word later this week. Had the bone scan yesterday and the CT today. The good news is that they gave me some water-like stuff for the CT, instead of the chalk like stuff. Much easier on my system!!

Anne

I have begun a separate thread for this topic in Moving Beyond called "Kay's Husband." I will keep making updates so that anybody who wants to can know the latest news.

Right now, we're in a holding pattern until he can get to Boston.

Hi Everyone,

How's everyone doing?

Anne – Did you get your results yet? When do you start rads?

Ann – How are you doing? How’s the knee? Are you getting around a little easier these days?

Mary – You crack me up. You do NOT have a big head! Love the sign – great job.

Nancy – Thanks for setting up the team. I checked out the team page and it looks great. I’ll be signing up in the next few days.

Trish – How are you doing? Are you feeling better yet?

Irene

Anna, first we have to go to Boston for his intake exam. And they will tell us then what they think. Then they'll put him on the list, and he has to wait his turn. Waiting it really tough--but we all know that. He had a bladder infection this week, after his sinus infection two weeks ago. Seems like it's one thing after another.

Hope you sell your house so you can get your other knee done. Gotten any nibbles?

Hope you're having a great birthday.

Mary

Welcome Aqyurnek!

I know there are support groups through some of the hospitals but not to sure which ones. Quite a few of us met a few weeks ago for lunch. Very supportive and alot of fun. You will love it here!
Hugs,
Denise

Mary:
Just saw the sweet banner in the Get Together thread. Thank you so much for thinking of me. All is well except I have a cold so birthday celebrations will have to be put off for a bit - no biggie. Again, thanks for the neat banner!!!
Hugs,
Pat

Irene, I am finally starting to feel better! YAY!! I thought I would never bounch back after that last chemo but I am getting stronger every day. I have a Dr.s appointment Monday and he will most likely get me ready for radiation.

Kay, so sorry about your husband. I am praying that everything goes good. Sorry you have to go through this with him.

I hope everyone is doing great. I haven't been on in a while but I have been wondering how you all were.
Take care,
Trish

Just stopping by to tell all my Michiganders Hi! Hope all is well with you, and that you are enjoying the fluctuating temps known only to Michigan!
Kay, I hope you've had some positive news about your Husband. I'm going to scroll around a bit and talk more later!
Hugs,
Denise
