Great News
Tina it is so very normal to have the feeling that a hammer is going to fall at anytime and bring but bad news. Truth is that maybe it will and maybe it won't we pray it never will and pray that Jorge continues to get good news. I hope that things well with chemo tomorrow and that he will rebound quickly from any side effects of this treatment.0 -
So ... sounds like great news
I'm so happy to hear the good news for you guys.
I totally understand your "waiting for the other shoe to drop" or something's just not quite right feeling. We who are in this cancer mess are suffering from the trauma. I think we all get those feelings. We especially have them when we've been through the twist and turns of this journey. It just seems nothing goes according to plan sometimes.
Try to focus instead on the positive. Look at the great news that you've received and remember the smile on the doctor's face. We really do have to use our energy for the positives because that seems to perpetuate more positive. We need to use our energies wisely. Use your energy for as much of the positive as possible. I haven't been posting as much because I'm tired of only having not so good news to report and am waiting for some good news. When you have the good news .... go full steam ahead with it.
HUGS to you Tina and congratulations on the good news!0 -

It was like you were reading my mind...all is good so far since cyberknife back in Nov... and I am skeptical still...why do I think that??????? Onc is happy, surgeon is happy, rad onc is happy, Robert is happy. I am happy too, but still I am doubtful. I keep those thoughts to myself. All the what ifs ands or buts.
Hope all goes well tomorrow with Jorge. He will do fine!

chemo tomorrow
Hi Tina,
Well, that all sounds like good news to me, so I don't think you should go begging for bad news. Bad news has a way of finding you, especially if you dwell on it. If you put all your energy into what possibly could go wrong, even though no one has said anything is wrong, then remember our thoughts are pretty darn powerful bits of energy.... so you do NOT want to be putting your thoughts/energy into thinking bad news, otherwise, you won't be disappointed
5 days of radiation.... should be real easy for Jorge. Most people (but that's not to say all... and we don't know what settings his radiation is being set at) do fine for the first 5-10 days of radiation. So, since Jorge is getting 5 days, other than the inconvenience of having to go in daily, Mon-Fri, he probably won't notice a thing. Meanwhile, that radiation might just be the ticket to shrink the tumour even smaller
Now, you mentioned that he starts chemo tomorrow... I forget, did you mention what kind of chemo he is going to be getting? Tell him we are all rooting for him here... and hope that his first day goes just fine! And that he has minimal to no side affects

Five will be manageable - Jorge might be slightly tired but rest will take care of that.
As Gracie said, I would have loved 5 - I did 25x the first time I did it and 30x the second time, so he should be ok.
Hope the tumor shrinks as expected to allow the surgery, it's the key.

and I quote from a post above...
"he came into the room and told Jorge that i looked over your file and i have to said things look great and you are a very lucky man".....
never overlook a victory, no matter how small, this is a victory to be happy about. There's already enough for us all to worry about in all of this. Take this quote from the Dr and hold onto it...and celebrate life with it........Love to you both.......Clift0 -
