in Uterine/Endometrial Cancer #1

I got a call  today that I will see the radiation onocologist and the thorasic surgeon next Friday  the 29 th. I will get a repeat CAT scan of the chest that morning.  The surgeon likes the scan to be within 30 days.   So I hope that means I am a candidate for either the cyber knife or surgery.  I am hoping for the cyber knife.  Barnes is about 2 1/2 hours from Quincy, so I am glad they arranged both appointments the same day.  Please keep me in your prayers.

    In my prayers!

    Hi Ro:

    I hope you can get the cyber knife.   I know how it is to travel to appointments.  I also travel 2 1/2 to 3 hours for my appointments and it is great when you can get several things done at the same time.

    You will definitely be in my prayers.   My best to you on August 29th.

    (((Hugs)))

    SUCH A TROOPER!!!!!!

    Ro, you have endured so much and have been quite successful with your treatments.  I am sure this will be just another hurdle for you and you will be successful with whatever treatment is chosen for you.  Off course, you are in my prayers even as I send you this message.  Keep us informed. I am also praying that you keep calm through this phase and have a good measure of peace.

    Yes, in my prayers!

    I pray for your health and that you get some rest from worrying. I had a family member who had cyber knife and it worked well for her.

    Prayers being offered

    Prayers being offered for you, Ro.  I do hope that Cyberknife is an option for that pesky node. 

    I'm still waiting to hear if the National Health Service here in England will fund my Cyberknife for the tumour in my pelvis.  The cogs turn very slowly here and it is mighty frustrating!  If they refuse (they probably will), then I will fund it myself.  Hoping to know within the next month.

    Good luck for the 29th.

    Hi, Ro

    Hi, Ro,

    It pleases me to hear that you are a likely candidate for either the cyber knife or surgery.   I, too, hope that you can have the cyber knife.  I have been impressed with what I have heard and read about cyber knife treatment.  You remain in my prayers, Ro, as is true of all the others who post here.  I will say a special prayer for you on August 29th, asking that you receive good news about your treatment and that when it is all said and done, this will prove to be just a tiny bump in the road of life for you. 

    Hugs to you,

    Cathy

    Hi Ro-

    So glad you continue to have options and have appointments set up.  Hope everything goes really well at both appointments and a plan of attack is set in place.

    Sending and Receiving Support

    I'm sending a note of cyber support to Ro10 and all of the other warriors on this site who share their experiences, knowledge and mechanisms for coping day to day. Hoping that Ro's follow-up appointment leads to a very good outcome.

    Thank you everyone

    I appreciate the kind words and prayers.  I knew I could count on you for prayers.  I have my CAT scan at 8:00, see the surgeon at 10:30 and see the radiation onocologist at 1:00.  A full day.  We are staying at my sister's Thursday night, so we won't have to leave quite so early.  I'll see my other two sisters, too, so it will be a good distraction.  

    Helen I hope you hear soon that your cyber knife is going to be paid for.  Waiting is so hard.  

    Thanks again.  I'll let you know what I find out Friday.  Hope you are all having a good day.

    Thinking of you

    Just wanted to let you know I will be thinking of you and praying also.  I thought of you last week... I was fortunate enough to take my daughter on vacation to Paris and London.  It was such a wonderful trip.   I hope you enjoyed Norway, I heard its beautiful.
