I found out yesterday that the furthur x-rays of the ribs and left arm after that bone scan was negative for cancer. The bone scan lit up several times on both sides of the ribs, however furthur x-rays were ordered and compared to the bone scan.
There was nothing in the left arm bone and the ribs had osteoporosis. Thank God he is listeningt o all your prayers. I still do not know about the spine. I wanted to tell you all some good news.
Your frien Fran from Long Island.

    Fran -

    I am sorry that I didn't get to reply to your previous posts. So sorry for your situation, but at least this is very good news. Now you can focus on the skull thing and not be consumed with worry about your ribs etc. I hope this good news helps you have the strength to beat this thing (which I know you can do.)

    I am also sorry it is taking so long to get started with treatment - I am hoping that once treatment starts you will feel a bit better, because you will know that you are doing something to fight this - something that I am sure has a good chance of being successful.

    Wishing you all the best,
    Betsy

    This is a prayer I thought you might like that a friend sent me.

    Father in heaven,
    I realize that I am not sufficient for the challenges
    I face. I confess that my resources are limited and that without your
    help, mercy, grace, and power I cannot do what I need to do. Please
    help me!
    Amen

    Super news! I am so glad to hear that. A couple less things to worry about, how wonderful. I am sure you will have more good news in the future. Where do you live on Long Island? I grew up in Valley Stream in Nassau County.
