FOR MY ANGEL

The most important thing now is to be supportive of your sister-in-law and help her to be postive. I am recovering from Breast Cancer and the support I got helped me through. You have to be her angel and guide and help her along the way. It is a long road but being positive help make it a little shorter. Good Luck. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your sister-in-law. Use this site often for your questions. It is very helpful.

Hi, it's great that you are there to offer support for your sister-in-law. Usually the patient is so overwhelmed they can't even think for themselves, I know because I was diagnosed June 2000. There are a lot of good web sites out there that are very informative i.e. www.cancer.gov or WebMD or the National Institute of Health, I think you can just search nih.gov. Banker's right you will have to wait for path report before you'll even know what direction to take...but you've already taken the first step!
May God surround your sister-in-law with His angels of mercy and healing. Please Lord let her cancer be in an early stage and give her doctors the wisdom to treat her appropriately. We ask all these things in Christ' name. Amen.
God bless you for being so willing to step out for your sister. You can check our 'personal web pages' here if you want to read about others experiences and how they coped, and we also have email on this site. You're surrounded by kind hearted, loving women who will help you any way possible! Take heart, God will see you and your family through this trial. hummingbyrd

I'm new to this site, too; but I'm in the midst of being treated for breast cancer right now. Since the diagnosis, the surgeries, and the radiation treatments I have seen first hand the miracles of God and Angels on my shoulder. First, I was diagnosed on a "fluke." The comparison mammogram we requested from a different hospital never came in, and because I am often stationed overseas, we decided on a whim to take another mammogram for comparison purposes (4 months after the first mammogram showed only a "not to be concerned about" shadow.) Anyway, the ensuing biopsy was positive and treatment began. As I said earlier, I am usually stationed overseas, but was in the USA between one station and another, so was fortunate enough not to be in some 3rd world country when all this happened. (an angel?). Miracles? The other day I was driving down the interstate when two manhole covers flew off a truck and were heading straight for my windshield! I closed my eyes, ducked my head, tapped my brakes and wondered if I'd be buried in Arlington National Cemetary! I have absolutely no idea how those two flying steel plates missed me, but seconds later I was just continuing down the highway as before. (an angel?) Hmmm, I lost a hubcap off my car about a week or so ago.... yesterday, I was driving along the DC Beltway along a route I rarely take -- there on the side of the highway, propped up against the divider was MY HUBCAP!!! (an angel??) So what do those stories have to do with breast cancer? Nothing at all. They have to do with the power of God and Angels showing us in strange ways sometimes just how close they are to us!!! Aside from the miracles I have seen, my greatest motivation for myself has been to keep repeating, "Don't let yourself become a sick person, Kim." It makes me get up, get showered, get dressed, get out and do SOMETHING, ANYTHING with my day - no matter how tired I feel that day. My prayers are with you and your sister-in-law.
