Bobbie you are an incredible person. How you stand with such grace in your sobriety supporting your beautiful son while he struggles with his journey is commendable. Love your beautiful soul xxx

Lillian, hoping for the best on the biopsy.

Bobbie, that really sucks - but you always manage to inspire us with your strength.

If you haven't already done so, everybody should hug someone today. Hug them tight - let them know you mean it

Would that I had had the support Nathan has. He may not be able to see it today, but it means the world. B it really does.

Totally agree with everyone here Bobbie. Nathan is very fortunate to have you in his corner fighting for him. And one day he will understand how much you gave of yourself. Hugs ❤️

Morning!

On my way to work. But I’d rather be in bed. Meh. Lol. Hoping today flies by.

Wishing you all a super sober Saturday!!

Long day

Big therapy drive

Went to a meeting, my uzshh, shared- about I can identify when I feel crap- and importantly I know what NOT to do.

Support to all- 'special B and Lill.

Have fun with the little doggy Purp! Would love to se a pic.

PJ, I always look forward to your stories. Yes, it’s important to learn what not to do. It’s harder sometimes than learning what TO do.

Avagoodday Sam! Know what you mean about work. Not really in the mood myself but I have to work at my home office much of the weekend. Meh, is right!

Bobbie, it’s really really hard to watch our kids struggle and be in danger. I can only imagine what you’re going thru, but for what it’s worth, I think you are doing everything right!

Hope everyone is having a great day today and out of harms way.

Many thanks for the prayer, thoughts and support. Really appreciate it.

And Sunflower it was super nice of you to pop in. Do so anytime!

I’m doing better now...not excellent...but not falling apart anymore either. Getting used to the state of my situation after a real gut punch. Bouts of anxiety overwhelm me at times....what if’s, you know. But I’m trying to live in the moment and just wait to hear how bad it’s gonna be. I’m not hopeful at all it’s benign after hearing the radiologist and seeing the report. I’m hoping it’s not an aggressive cancer at this point and that it hasn’t spread. Survival rate is actually very high if it isn’t in the lymph nodes and the ultra sound didn’t find it there. Still, surgery is the only way to take a good sample of the nodes and test.

Working hard to stay calm and peaceful. Right now, as Tom Petty said, the waiting is the hardest part. Waiting for the biopsy, waiting for the surgical appointment, waiting for the surgery, waiting for the surgery results....only after all that waiting will I know what I’m dealing with. I just wish these tumors were not in my body growing during all this waiting. I don’t get why docs think that is ok.

Oct 1 is my new health plan then Lillian is done waiting around. I’m looking for the best cancer specialist in town and then we are going to kick ass.

Ok so that’s healthy to write this down. I’ll try not to keep on this topic all the time.

On the upside...I feel very done with drinking and eating unhealthy foods. That may be a little of the “other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?” and a little of closing the barn doors after the cows got out....but a little good news never hurts.

It’s time to get strong for a fight. So I’m gonna focus on that.

Love you guys and thank you again for all the support.

I will visit that thread Dee, thank you.

Strong for the fight....you bet girl.

I think you know this.....I was diagnosed with bone cancer....I got told in 1998 that unless I had my finger amputated I could not recover. As you know, I still have my finger....it doesn't work real well, but who cares. I am cancer free.

Miracles happen. With faith and love and strength.
You have all of those things in spades....

Thinking of you and wishing for some peace for you.
Worry is a killer. More love honey. ♥♥♥

Hello Friends ~ just checking in....startin' fluid, etc.....(Oh, and no hangover! )

I guess that makes today day 8....it really helps having a doggie sitting job on the side....yesterday she loved walking in the park....maybe today we'll go check out the causeway

And her owner has already given my # to her friend as a reference....so I may get another phone call for more pet sitting duties!

I'll check back in later ~ Have a great Sunday
