    Hey Nettie, hang tuff girl, a strong mind will get you through this, I am in a similar pickle with a rare spread to my peritinol cavity, and I intend to mystify the Docs, believe in your own powers of self healing and keep your faith strong, it will be beaten.

    Hi nettie, I am sorry that your news is scarey, you must be all over the place just now. My boys were 3 months, 7 yrs and 8 yrs when my husband was diagnosed. All he could think of was 'the boys' so I know how you are feeling.

    He was given weeks to live back then and defied them beyond their expcetations. Please do keep hope and stay positive...from what I see, it seems to be a very potent med.

    Take care, keep everyone posted. Thoughts are with you.

    Oh nettie,

    I am so very sorry. Try to stay strong. We are all here for you. I will write you a longer letter later - my 94 year old grandmother passed away so I am home for the weekend.

    My heart goes out to you and your family. Enjoy every moment - smile through the fear and keep up your tremendous faith.

    You remain in my thoughts and prayers. jana

    Nettie4,
    I am so praying for you. Our children are 8 and 10 so I know how you feel. There is so much to learn about this disease and the cause but there is information out there to be had. Remember that God gave us doctors, medicines, miracles, and faith. Keep your chin up and please keep fighting!!!
