I just wanted to post a message to "littlejulie" to let her know that I will be thinking of her family this upcoming week for her mom's surgery. (Julie - I will try and give you a call to make sure you are doing ok !!) Your family will be in my prayers and I am sure the prayers of many other people on this website.

I think everything is going to go great! Just a quick update on my mom - we thought we were never going to see her back to her normal self but she is feeling fabulous. After three surgeries (two recurrences) and chemo, she still looks fantastic and was dancing away on Saturday at a family wedding and is getting ready to go on a vacation with my dad.

Stay strong and positive during this time,
Vanessa

    Hi Julie,

    Like Venessa I also wanted to let you know you'll be in my thoughts and prayers on Thursday July 8. It's been along 4 month's since your Mom( Mary ) has been diagnosed. I know it's been hard on you physically & mentally but it will soon be all in the past. Please know with each day things do get better from here on in.

    Your a wonderful caring daughter " Julie " and your Mom must be so proud of you...

    Always Your Friend,
    Lisa

    thanks Kanga n Jen. Maybe my mother will visit the csn one day soon : )
  • Julie, on July 8th, it will be exactly one year since my husband's diagnosis and I will be in deep thought that day, which will most definitely include your mom and prayers for her as well as your family. She'll be just fine and she can then join Kanga and a host of others, including my Bert, in the survivor room. Anyone who goes through the ups and downs of this disease is a survivor in my minds eye and a true warrior.

    Hugs,
    Monika

    Hi Julie,

    Two more days to go and all of this long waiting will be over for your mom and you. Our prayers will be with you both. Here's hoping that your mom's recovery will be quick and easy. Let us hear from you.

    Hugs,
