How scary all this must be.....

Maggie - I'm pulling for you 100% and keeping you very close in my thoughts and prayers today. I hope that the next couple of days bring you the very best news that they can.

Will - thanks for the note here and please do let us know how things are going for our good friend, maggie.

Know that I'm thinking of you too - keep up the wonderful support for Maggie.

Morning everyone!

I just got off the phone with Maggie and she's on her way to the hospital for the procedure (I wanted to be there but we decided to wait and see what kind of surgery she's facing and when before I head up there-and her family will be with her today so she's not alone). They'll run some blood work, then put her under and start things around 11am EST. They will use ultrasound equipment and a large needle to go through her back and aspirate the cyst, then test the fluid to see what caused it. It should take one to two hours, then she'll need a couple hours recovery time, and then they'll let her come home.

As painful and scary as her trip to the ER was Monday, finding out about the hernia was something that eased both our minds considerably. . . up until then there wasn't a lot explanations for the mass and where it was that didn't involve a serious problem with one of the major organs, but a tear in the mesentary can cause mesentary fibrosis i.e. benign growths; so hopefully that is all that's wrong.

Anyway, I probably won't have much news to pass along until later this afternoon. . . I am still very concerned and nervous of course, but after 3 weeks, 4 sonograms, 2 CT scans, 9 different doctors, and a trip to the ER, I'm happy they are finally doing something to actually start treating the problem. .

Thank you all so much for the prayers and support; it means the world to both of us. . . and thanks just in general for the DIS- while I really needed and got support from those friends I told of this from the begining; Maggie needed a place to come and enjoy herself and keep her mind off things, and just having this wonderful community here certainly fulfilled the need. The "Halloween Party" thread was the weekend right after she found out there was something wrong going on, and that in particular helped a lot. . .

Anyway, I'm rambling. . . thank you all again for the continued prayers and good thoughts- I'll post an udpdate as soon as I hear something. .

Thanks for the update Willy.

Maggie, you stay strong and I'll be sending mega prayers and good healing pixie dust and good thoughts your way.

 

[JerseyJanice]

I will surely remember her in my prayers!

Saffron, here's hoping that you are well.

 

[MerryPoppins]

I just saw this thread. My thoughts and prayers are with Willy and Maggie. Hope the doctors come back with fantastic news and she feels back to normal very, very soon.

If you need a shoulder to lean on, Willy, feel free to send me a PM. Sometimes it's harder to be in the waiting position during tests. I'm sure you are feeling a lot of stress. Hang in there, both of you!

 

[crazyme5kids]

I hope all goes well and they find the best and fastest way to treat the problem, and that Maggie will be back on her feet in no time.

 

[nativetxn]

Keeping Maggie in my prayers. I hope the procedure goes easily and quickly and that Maggie is back home and pain free very soon.

 

[kejoda]

Maggie my Prayers are with you, Willy, and your family.

 

[EROS]

Oh, WILLY, I'm so sorry that the two of you are going through this. It's always much more frightening dealing with the UNKNOWN than the known, so let's hope that Maggie gets a definitive diagnosis once and for all. I'm wishing her my very best . Please keep us updated..............

 

[Dream]

Willy I will keep Maggie in my prayers...and you too.

 

[SuiteDisney]

Prayers and (((hugs))) for you, Maggie. I hope the doctors figure out the problem and that it's easy to fix.

 

[Deb in IA]

Sorry I hadn't heard this earlier, Willy and Maggie.

Best wishes for today's procedure. Keep us posted, OK, Willy?
