Its Been awhile!

18 years ago

Its been awhile since I've posted anything but I have been lurking. Welcome to all the new members. I know you will love this forum as much as I have. I've been busy taking care of my mom, she has a compression fracture in her back and I've been driving her to the doctor and therapy. I've also been taking care of her house and mine. But she's on the mend now. My DH was just diagnosed 2 weeks ago with Testicular Cancer. We're going to MD Anderson in Houston on Monday for evaluation and surgery. The tumor is too large to operate on here. He works in Brasil and had a cold there with dizziness that wouldn't go away. Thats why he went to the doctor in the first place. He never had any symptoms of the cancer.

I know everyone will keep him in your prayers because that's what you all do so well. Thank you so much and I'll still be lurking when I can and will keep you updated on my DH. It will be 35 years this year that we have been married.

Janet: prayers for you, dear lady. The burden you've been given to bare is huge and heavy. Lean on Jesus.

JANET, Vickie said it so well. We will be praying hard and thinking of you both. That is a load to bear, I know from personal experience. M.D. Anderson has a wonderful rep and is suppose to be one of the best and the hospital and staff are suppose to be top-notch, too. Besides the Lords hands, you will be in excellent hands with them. Take care of yourself, too. Stress can be a terrible thing on your mind, body and spirit. Dont give that devil a foothold, either, pick up your broom, open the door and sweep his lying behind out, LITERALLY!! TRUST AND PRAY!! Keep us posted and give us an update as soon as you can get a minute.
blessings to you both-Sherri

You've really had your hands full, Janet. And more challenges ahead. Its good news your Mom is mending, tho I know recovery is slow when its your back. Hard on both of you for sure. Lots of prayers will be coming for your DH of course, and will be holding you close in thoughts.

Hang in there, we'll be right here for you.
hugs, Karen

Awwww, Janet! I will pray that God gives you strength so you are able to help your husband and your mother through these difficult times and that they both have successful and speedy recoveries. Take comfort in your GJ friends here. They are a magnificent bunch that's for sure! If anyone can get a hold of God's ear and bend It, it is this bunch! Keep strong and be well,
