Hi,
Just wanted to update you all, my biopsies from last weeks EGD are all negative the dr did not see the tumor per se, he said mine is subtle and he did not have the ultrasound camera to examine the area but said that is a good sign that all the biopsies were negative, my husband believes he did maybe 5 of the surrounding areas. So we are all happy and grateful for all the prayers and support that have been so generously given to us. It is hard to believe that I have less than 3 wks before surgery. Hard to believe 12/8 is so close. take care and everyone stay strong and keep praying for Kitten as William Marshall has so beautifully written, she has been the wing beneath all of our wings to never give up hope. take care,
Donna70

    Hi,
    There is nothing like everyone rejoicing with you. so thanks for being so happy for me, it makes it double the joy. The drs did pull a surprise when I was getting my infusion yesterday. I am supposed to go in and get an NG tube down my nose today, my weight loss is going to affect how I heal and the drs say I cannot go into surgery at the weight I am and must have supplemental nutrition so I will have 12 hr feedings thru my nose, ackkk!!! if they can't do the ng right then I will have to have the j tube placed next week. So say a prayer that all goes well. Visiting nurses are supposed to teach me how to do this. My grands are supposed to come and stay overnight so they will get more medical knowledge than they bargained for but one watches ER all the time anyway. thanks again for the encouragement.

    congrats!
    Donna----wonderful news!!! just keep plugging along...you're doing the right things. It will easier to have the nutrition through the nose than what you have been dealing with. My dad isn't still loosing weight so he's not getting the tube before surgery (12/2), but I kind of wish they would to fatten him up a little. :) I'll keep praying for you ---and all these other nice folks on this site.
    Hang in there----you're going to do fine!

    congrats
    Hi Kim,
    What kind of surgery is your Dad getting the open or lap type? We are going to be pretty close for surgical dates. Think I just want to get it over with,I love Xmas and this is going to be one strange one. I will be praying for your Dad, glad he is not losing any more weight and hope he can swallow soon so he can fatten up after surgery. thanks again and like you said prayers for all on this site!!! take care,
