Chen
I am lifting you up in my prayers. so terribly sorry you have to go through this. I too pray it is just a False Alarm.

God be with you

My friend Chen
My friend Chen--you are strong and will survive because you are getting things taken looked at immediately instead of waiting. You are taking the bull by the horns so to speak and that is what warriors do.

I will be thinking of you on Friday and sending positive vibes.

Love you Chen,
Margo

I an NOT going to be SAD...
I an NOT going to be SAD... I am NOT going to get ANGRY... I am NOT going to CRY... I am NOT going to be SORRY... (now if you believe any of that I have some ocean side property here in Missouri).... Okay... so here's the deal.. instead of waisting any of that energy on the above items I am going to say.... I will be a rock... a private cheering section... a fan club... a bending ear with a drip dry lapel.. I will make you laugh... hold your hand (virtually and in spirit of course)... I will only allow positive thoughts to cross my mind... I (and I'm sure we) will be here for what ever it is you need us to be ... for you!

I had my annual eye exam today and my eyes are so dilated that I had my husband read me your post and am now typing praying that I'm not making any typo's because I can't see one word of it. So I do hope my message has made it across!

We love you!

Hugs,

PS... I agree with Joe... I want a "I HATE this Button"...

Oh Chen my dear friend My heart is so saddened to hear this news. You are in my prayers. I will be waiting for news on Monday. We are all with you sweetheart. Biggest Hugs Take care Kay

It never occurred to me that
It never occurred to me that you ( or anyone else) would forget me. I liken it to when I do the Relay For Life laps and I visualize all of you here, and I chant your names as I go around. And just in case I don't remembe to say everyone's name, I do a couple of laps simply chanting "CSN, CSN,CSN"...it is just as powerful.
I know I am part of a group, if I am mentioned by name or not!
Thanks, Victoria! Love you!

Hugs,
Chen♥

I am so sorry that you are
I am so sorry that you are going through this again. You are so right to be proactive and get to the doctor right away. I am fairly new here and the support and prayers are so important. Good luck to you. I will be doing my first relay for life and I too will be chanting CSN

We are there for you
We are there for you Chenheart. We love and support you. I will send a smokestack of prayers for you and the others who are in the mist of a battle. But... the news isn't for certain. I will pray this lump you felt is nothing serious. Hugs to you.

Chen and Libby
While I want to say please stay positive I know your mind still wanders
to those dark and scary places. So keep us close to brighten those moments
for you.

What I really want to do is curl up in a ball in a total state of denial. It
really hurts me to see my sisters suffer and to feel helpless

BUT I HAVE to stay strong as do YOU, and never forget this beast is ruthless.
No moments of weakness, not even ONE.

I am sending you all the good vibes I can summon and
hugs to comfort you.

Hugs,
Ayse

we are with you
We are with you in spirit, prayer, and thoughts. I am so thankful that you are being aggressive and not letting time pass. Hugs to you!!

I didnt want
same here.....

I didnt want to post bad news but since you broke the ice when I was off Xeloda in November a lump grew back in my breast and on my liver and my markers went from 20 to 43. Can't have another pet scan until March because of insurance rules grrrrr so we have to wait until then to see what shows up and if its worse my onc will once again change up my treatments. The breast lump is about the size of a grape

MARCH ON SISTERS!!!!

On a good note..... my onc has a new to her PA who has done oncology pa for several years and she said I was remarkable the way I have responded to all the treatments !!!!

Love & hugs!!! Libby

Libby,
We all take the bad
Libby,

We all take the bad with the good!

Insurance always has something to do with us at some point huh?

I will put you at the top of our prayer list.

Hugs are with you

Chen,
I want a rewind button
Chen,

I want a rewind button to go back to the day before we were told of this word CANCER

It seems like it is everywhere you go and is in almost every conversation these days

You are such an amazing women so caring, you have given me so many words of wisdom and now you need them and I can't seem to put them on paper but as you said you know how we all feel, just know that I have my arms around you as tight as I can get them and pray that this is just nothing but a little benign cyst.

Hugs and love to you
Robbin

Big hug
Dera Claudia,
From my own experience I know the horror of discovering a lump under armpit. I know what is followed if this lump related to... But on the other hand, 5 months ago my oncologist discovered a small enlarged lymph node that was confirmed to be little fat. Let's wish for the fat, hoping for good PET scan and give support to each other.
