    Fear
    Dear Ayse,

    I have lung mets and recall my oncologist telling me that lungs can show many, many things that are not malignant.

    I shall be with you in that pet scan room sending positive thoughts all through that machine that it find nothing more than an inflammatory nothing.

    Then you can tell "Fear" it has the wrong door, wrong number, wrong planet and wrong galaxy.

    Best to you,

    Doris

    Six months later....WTF!?!
    Six months later....WTF!?! That is so very wrong! Any chance your paperwork got confused with someone else? I'd be really wondering about that since it took them six months to get you the letter.

    Regardless, I'll be on that bus. For you, I think we should all find inspiring or funny poems and have a poetry reading.

    Here's mine for you...

    There is another sky by Emily Dickinson

    There is another sky,
    Ever serene and fair,
    And there is another sunshine,
    Though it be darkness there;
    Never mind faded forests, Austin(Ayse),
    Never mind silent fields -
    Here is a little forest,
    Whose leaf is ever green;
    Here is a brighter garden,
    Where not a frost has been;
    In its unfading flowers
    I hear the bright bee hum:
    Prithee, my brother(sister),
    Into my garden come!

    Hugs,

    Linda

    I KNOW you got my back sisters
    Here I go gulp. And I am taking with me truckloads of good energy.
    This weekend I kept so darn busy that I dont even know where the weekend went.
    I even did scandinavian dancing.... dont ask haha. Freddy and I went there expecting
    A show it turns out it was dance classes not a performance. So the bell dancing queen
    And the salsa king threw a few shapes and became the show. After an hour or so we took
    The first escape opportunity and made a mad dash for the door. Like in the cartoons there
    Is now an ayse and freddy shaped hole in their door. So here I go chuckling in...
    Thank you so so much for your inwaivering support and inspiration. I read and reread your
    Posts this morning and Linda what lovely poem!
    Hugs

    Pet Scan
    Ayse, I am a little late, but grabbed ahold of the back bumper of the Pink Bus as you went by. Wouldn't miss being a part of your cheering squad for anything. Let us know when you have the results, and in the meantime, my thoughts and prayers are with you. Hugs, Judy

    Oh Ayse... I am so sorry to hear the news. Please keep us posted on how you are doing and know that you have many Pinks praying for you and sending positive energy your way. So wonderful to hear Freddy is being supportive and stands firmly by your side. The pup helps too, no doubt.

    Hugs to you dear one.
