Especially when cancer is involved. After all Bob has been through with the surgery and all that entails this must be a blow. There are many options now for treatment and we have to believe that this bump in the road can be handled in a way that can provide Bob a decent quality of life and provide you both with more quality time together. Please keep us posted on progress. Sam Stage IV, 4/22/2010 -
I'm sorry..........
to hear this news. I will pray that this all goes well for Bob. We have followed each others journey closely as we are mid-westerners and both treated at Mayo. I will ask my prayer partners to keep you and Bob in their prayers also and tell Bob we will continue to beat this cancer. God Bless, my heart is heavy.....

It is difficult to hear this news about Bob
Linda,
As many have said above, the fear of recurrence is something all of us live with. When it happens to someone who's journey we have followed through chemo, radiation therapy, surgery, and recovery it hurts to read. There is always the chance that the second review of the results may provide better news.
May God provide you and Bob with support and peace as you await the results.
You will be in my prayers,
Best Regards,
Paul Adams

arrives this news is distressing. I hope that it is caught at it's infancy and just gets blasted into oblivion. How's that for subtlety ? Sending blessing to you and Bob and I shall include in my "new and improved"meditations that I have been doing with my tai chi practice. Sending love and light and healing energy to ALL my friends here and especially those who have urgent needs.
Blessings to you both,
Cora
