LillianGish

My company has a large presence in NYC. We lost 294 employees on 9/11. The first plane that hit the North Tower ran right into them on floors 93 thru 100. And everyone above floor 100 died because they couldn’t get past the fire. We had another 1,600 in the same tower but on other floors. They survived.

And yes Dee. Every day is a fight for a great life!

Thank you for thinking of me Bobbie. I’m good. Have my tests tomorrow finally. I’m at peace that whatever will be, will be ( que sera’ sera’ ). They’ll probably wait another month to read the tests before I hear the results...they seem to move at the speed of the DMV.

Took the opportunity to schedule every other cancer screening known to mankind. Told my boss that if I’m not at work, assume I’m at some sort of cancer screening. 😄 I’m tired of feeling helpless.

Hang in there with your son. That must be very hard, and I’ll say prayers for you and your family.

Good night March class. Peace be with you all,
Lillian

Morning!!

On my way to work. Feeling good I dare say. Lol. I don’t know if I’ve talked about it here but I started taking some CBD oil a week or so ago and I’m noticing a huge difference. Feels like I’m living in the light again. Hoping it lasts a while.

Bobbie - so glad Nathan sees his struggles and is doing something about it. He’s also very lucky to have you in his corner. ��

Lillian - taking the power back! Love it! Will be thinking of you today. Hugs ❤️

Happy Thursday class! Don’t drink. It’s dumb!

The weather was nice for a few hours, then the humidity went back up to 80 something per cent....honestly....how is an Aussie supposed to breathe???? Grrrrr.

I am glad he is fully on board, his whole heart.

We both have heard "it takes what it takes" a lot of times....it does, and perhaps this part of Nathan's journey will be the best part. The part where he gets to seal all of the knowledge he learned in rehab and the outside world since, and find better strategies to cope when life gets lifey.

Thinking of you this morning love....both of you. ♥♥

HUGS you guys! So glad to be here with you all....and with startin' fluid

Tonight begins my first dog sitting assignment through Sunday....I'm nervous because I worry about everything, but I'm excited at the same time....this is the type of responsibility that'll keep me from drinking this weekend!

Radiologist said it looks like cancer. . Biopsy on Monday and then I have to wait for the results. It was pretty clear though.

I’m ok, but I don’t have anything meaningful or uplifting to say.

I’m going to go to bed.

Good night all,

Dee74

I'm sorry for the bad news Lillian but I'm hoping for a good outcome from the biopsy

I f you haven't seen it yet I recommend Gilmers thread A Different Path - it's really quite inspIrational.

Prayers Lillian!

Sorry for the initially negative news, Lillian. I will choose to focus on the part where "it looks like cancer" as that sounds not yet definitive. There's always hope. Even if it is cancer, you're strong. Prayers and support in this tough time.

And yes, check out Gilmer's thread.

Bobbieka

Hugs and prayers, Lillian.

Oh Lillian, I am so sorry honey.

Do you know Ann....from SR.....she has been through this and she is absolutely the most amazing person on the planet.....just putting it out there in case you need a friend who understands specifically what you are going through.

Love you so much....putting good energy out there and faith....I believe you will fight this and beat it.....send it's little butt packing. Thinking of you honey. ♥♥♥

PS. 100% here for you.....messages...texts....talk, whatever you need. And thank you for being there for me. xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Bobbie....how did yesterday go love? How are you? ♥♥

Maybe the radiologist is wrong!

Bobbieka

Not the best. He got there and didn't want to go. I said some horrible things to him to get him to walk in the door. Then I went home and looked through his bag he left and found all his paraphernalia. It knocked the wind out of me. I'm okay today. It is what it is. I will say, knowing your son is a drug addict and seeing it are two different things.

venuscat

I hear you.....that is really tough.

I understand having said some awful things to get him in there....I know that feels bad...I have done that very recently....but you did it. And he needs this.

I hope you smash everything you can smash that was in that bag....and then have huge hugs with your husband or a lovely soft grandkid.

Far out....this is hard stuff.
I think you are wonderful....so much love. xx
