Yuyu's Cancer Diary

| More bad news on the way? | Views: 626 |
My oncologist said she will have my whole body CT scan results by tomorrow and asked me to come in the morning. I am scared that she will tell me cancer has spread to other areas of my body. That will be a whole new ball game (prognosis and all), correct?
Waiting is so hard. I don’t want to be all nagative and think of the worse case scenario. But, at the same time, I don’t want to think positive and get completely devastated with the news.





Yuyu,
For what its worth, I had a 6cm tumor with lymph node involvement but it was contained to that area. As hard as it may seem, just take it one day at a time. There are so many good treatments for any stage of cancer. Keep me posted on the results.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. Know I am praying for you and that better days are ahead.
If you mood is very somber disregard the remainder of this post. If, on the other hand you are near the end of your rope and need a diversion I humbly offer the following.
You, my dear, have had a rough ride. Were I closer we would pull the cork out of a bottle of well aged grape juice and find the bottom. At that point it would be morning or we would no longer be worried. As that is not possible I offer the following prescription.
One or 12 large doses of your favorite beverage, taken liberally, while soaking a warm bath. Low lights and candles. Once you have taken the edge off, a prayer and a good cry, before curling up in a warm blanket and drifting off.
Tomorrow will come and your DR. will have the news and worry will do nothing to change that. Waiting sucks, come to think of it the only bright spot to cancer is the possibility to smoke copious amounts of maryjane (sorry I am projecting)
We have all spend these nights waiting. Some of us are better at it than others. I tend to close down and brood, not the best but it gets me through. The important thing is to find YOUR path and allow yourself the freedom to follow it.
Prayers and blessings to you

Waiting is the hardest part. Think positive. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel It is better to know what your dealing with then not. Chin up. I have been battle my breast caner for 4 years now and I am able to get up and go to work and have some kind of a normal life. There will good days and bad days but your strong and will get through it. Take vitamin D get your rest. I have found Acupuncture treatments to be a big help with the site effects from the chemo. We are all here to help you through this…..
God Bless

Thank you, Cheryl, for your encouraging words.
Yes, I would rather know what I’m dealing with, so that I can fight better and stronger. I’ll definitely let everyone know what the doctor said tomorrow.
Prayers,
Yuyu
I have been so worried about you. I am so glad that is has stayed local. You are a warrier. Everything is going to be fine.
