Sometimes reality sucks!!! What I wouldn't do to just be hanging out at Epcot with you right now.

Let's do it!!!!
Let us just run off and then we go to Epcot, do a drink around the world and just enjoy Disney.....
We can do it........ Even when it's only in our minds...........
Just think about it, picture it in your head and then probably the Disney feeling is in your body and soul and a smile wil be there on your face.

And about your Dad, the worst patiënt is a doctor himself.....

Hey Yvet and Tonya...can I come too? (If I'm a good girl, can I hold the light saber? )

hang in there girl. It is so hard, I have been in those shoes. I will continue to keep your family in my prayers.

Tonya, I just found this thread. You and your mom are in our thoughts and prayers.

My Mom's treatment has been going fairly well. She finished her 10 days of radiation on her neck right before New Years and although spent most of January and February extremely fatigued she was doing well. She has been taking Femara pills everyday and tolerating those and getting monthly infusions of Zometa which other than a few episodes of vomiting and general achiness she has been tolerating that also.

The tumor markers have decreased and her neck has been feeling better. We thought everything was great but the last few weeks her shoulder has been bothering her. After an x-ray they found another tumor on her shoulder and she started 10 more days of radiation on Friday. It is a little disturbing since this tumor didn't show up on her original bone scan in December. Unfortunately, I am not in Augusta with my parents because last week I had strep throat and went back to my house so I wouldn't infect my mother - and it sucks to be sick by yourself. (When you are sick you always want your mom!!!) Since I haven't actually seen my mom since she got the news of the latest tumor I can't get a good idea of how she is dealing with things but my sister did say she cried at the doctor's office. It is hard to see her cry because she always has a positive outlook on things and to see a chink in that makes my heart break at the thought of losing her.

She is having another CT scan in a few weeks so we should know how things are progressing then. Until then, please keep up the prayers. I think the doctors are still optimistic but the second round of radiation is definitely a set back.

Oh girl - hang in there. I do bone scans for a living (for 20 years now) and it never endingly amazes me how aggressive some cancers are. I have a lot of patients I see more than once a year because of it. I have cried with/for my patients many times.

I'll keep you in my thoughts.

 

[safetymom]

I will keep you all in my prayers.
