    praying...
    Sunrae,
    I am in awe of your strength. As you have heard before(but it is so true), just take your journey one step at a time...keep in touch when you can. Know that prayers will always be with you and the power of prayer can conquer all!

    So Sorry
    Sunrae,

    I can't tell you anything that hasen't already been said. I hate you have to go through this and pray the road ahead will be uneventful and predictable. Just know there's a lot of us in you corner cheering you on!

    Hugs, El

    Sunrae, one step at a time.
    Sunrae, one step at a time. I, too, am thankful that they did this testing and found the problem before rather than during your surgery (mastectomy). Take care of yourself and keep us posted on your progress. You'll get that dance it's just going to take a little time!! Keep up your spirits and I'm sending strength your way. Take care!!

    Another complication hit me
    Another complication hit me yesterday. With all the coughing I became short of breath and my asthma inhalrs didn't work so my husband called 911 and I was taken to ER. Stayed there for 6 hours, had breathing treatments and steriod injections, sent home with more meds, dxed with acute bronchitis. Feeling somewhat better but still coughing. Now I'm having some pain in the lower abdomen when I cough so will have to call the heart dr and find out whats going on now. Wish I could post some good news soon. Think I might be overloading all of you with my problems. Its such a comfort to come here and read your comments. I can feel the love and hugs coming thru. Thanks for everything. Love, Sunrae

    never an overload..
    Sunrae,
    You could never overload us with your problems. I am rapidly learning we "pinks" all stand together, so there are broad shoulders here to help anyone that needs help with anything. I am glad you are feeling all the cyber hugs and love coming your way -and don't forget all the prayers. With love, Mary Kay

    Sunrae, you can't overload
    Sunrae, you can't overload us.....we're warriors!!! Sending you gentle ((((hugs)))). Your pain in the lower abdomen is more than likely a result of all the coughing. My mom had COPD and would occasionally get into a coughing fit and I believe it was peppermint candy (Lifesavers) that really helped her. Maybe this would be worth a try. Take care and continue to post and we'll get you through this and on to your surgery. Take care!!

    Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?!
    Really? You feel like you are overloading us with your problems? What else are we here for? We're the one group you can completely dump on and not feel guilty about it because we are on your team!!! You let us know what's going on (I insist!) and we will let you know when we have had enough! (Now that I can stop lecturing... Please please please know that I am thinking of you and wishing you some good news. Hang in there and don't let yourself feel isolated. Use your energy for positive thoughts.) Wishing you only the very best, Pitt

    I wanted to cry when I read

    I wanted to cry when I read this, what you are going through. Please don't ever think you are overloading us with what is going on with you, this is why we are here, to support and send our love, prayers, good thoughts and well wishes. It is what makes this site is so powerful. I have seen the power of women working together through really tough times in Africa and it is truly amazing. We have that power too and are here to collectively support each other.

    Again, just one day at a time and please let us know how you are doing good or not so good.

    love to you Sunrae

    Dear Sunrae,

    You are one strong woman who has been dealt an overload, and yet you keep handling everything coming your way. You are amazing. I do believe your strength will sustain you and heal you. I look at your face and all I see is a beautiful woman with a beautiful smile...a happy woman who emits rays of sunshine. May you continue to have the strength to overcome everything negative in your life.

    Lots of Hugs and Lots of Love,
    Janelle.

    Sweet Sunrae~
    When your Drs,

    Sweet Sunrae~
    When your Drs, who I just know are brilliant, do your needed heart surgery, they will be amazed to find what is blocking your arteries~ it is the love, courage, and positive spirit you show. So, when the blockage is removed, it isn't to get rid of anything, but to take out the excess so that there is some of your sweet self to share with those who need it!

    Take good care of yourself; know that you are in good hands, and that your cyber-family is cheering you on, supporting you and encouraging you every step of the way.

    Hugs,
    Chen♥

    So Sorry
    I am so sorry to hear that you are experiencing more complications. I like what Chen said. She always seems to have the right words for times like this. You can't possibly overload us even if you tried. That is what we are here for. And soon you will be well enough to share your love and support with someone in need. Let us take this one for you.

    Take care.
