Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» You're told it's adhesions and find out it's cancer. Again. So any of you out there who pray please pray for our son. OK?
Thank you Don. I know you're not the praying kind but I do appreciate your best wishes. I don't know if any of it will help but what could it hurt? Happy Thursday.
Thank you m2c. You were there for me when it happened the first time. I appreciate that you're still there. I lost it yesterday but today is a brand new day. Happy Thursday.
Thank you JA. I appreciate it. He has had such a tough time and we thought he was out of the woods. I wonder why cancer recurs in some people and not others?. Another question to ask. Happy Thursday.
I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to your son, so I hope he pulls through 100%! Your public plea is testament to how deeply this touches you, rest assured that we're all in your corner on this one. ~
Thank you Randy. I appreciate it. I just lost it yesterday and as you know I don't hide anything. He's had a rough few years but we thought he had beaten the cancer. I'm gonna ask if anyone knows why it recurs in some and not others. Happy Thursday..
Rosie, I will keep good thoughts for your son and your family and hope that all turns out well. It must be a very difficult thing for a parent to learn their child is seriously ill. I can't imagine what that must be like. I don't know why it recurs in some and not others. I suspect that it's the type of cancer and genetics combined. In any event, I wish you all the strength to get through this difficult time. Happy Thursday. :)
Sometimes, I think the waiting is the most difficult part. Once you know what you're dealing with, you start on a course of action. Waiting makes you feel helpless.
Spot-on my friend. Precisely. Feeling impotent is not something I deal with well. Once we know what direction to go we can get moving and doing but until then you are in LIMBO visualizing the best but fearing the worst. AARRGGHH! Thank you for your reply Spunky!
So sorry RosieG. My birth father passed away Jan 8th from lymphoma after it metastasized to his bones. He had colon cancer in 2003 and prostate in 2007. Ended up taking out most of his colon but got rid of the colon cancer. They couldn't operate to get rid of the prostate cancer due to the botched surgery on the colon. 2017 diagnosed with lymphoma. It acted quickly. Had a colostomy bag for over a decade, a catheter and urine bag for years and a nurse had to come out twice a week to drain something attached to his lungs for the last few months.
Seeing cancer in your son has to be horrible. In this system you expect to outlive your parents but not your kids. I hope they can get rid of all traces of it.
Condolences on the loss of your dad tex. We are awaiting the results of the biopsy to see what stage and what type of cancer it is. He had his bladder removed in 2015 and they were going to rebuild his insides to form a pouch(his wife had that very same operation and it worked for her) but couldn't so he wears a colostomy bag. That cancer returned in the same place shocks me. He endured chemo and it was very hard on him. He has been going through immunotherapy for about a year now and it was a lot easier on him and seemed to be working. I dunno where this will go. When our daughter-in-law called and told us I just lost it. Thank you for your kind words and Happy Saturday to thee.

I am so sorry you and your family have been dealing with this Rosie. All the pain, suffering and turmoil in the world show we are in the last days. Soon all this will be in the past.
(Isaiah 33:24) And no resident will say: “I am sick.” The people dwelling in the land will be pardoned for their error. (Revelation 21:3, 4) With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” (Revelation 22:1, 2) And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, flowing out from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2 down the middle of its main street. On both sides of the river were trees of life producing 12 crops of fruit, yielding their fruit each month. And the leaves of the trees were for the healing of the nations.
Thank you so much for the kind words, helpful thoughts tex. I know. This too shall pass. Happy Saturday m'dear. We are waiting for the results of the biopsy. I am not a good waiter.
