i've thought about writing something for some time now but i just can't seem to compose the right phrases or accurately express what i feel about what's happening to you.

to be frank, i don't know you (or anyone lese on this board for that matter), but i've seen your posts from time to time in the COR and PDD, although i can't recall exchanging anything with you. nonetheless, i sincerely hope that your surgeries and treatment are successful, and that you, your family and friends come out of this challenge closer and stronger.

for a moment, i will set aside my agnostic tendencies, and pretend that there is a God, and i will pray to God to show mercy upon you, and allow you live a long healthy and fruitful life. best wishes,

spacey

My dad is just getting over stomach cancer now and it was pretty serious, cant be treated by chemo/radiation and 75% chance of it returning BUT he is living a normal life, back at work and doing really great.

When I head at New Year that he was so sick I thought that was the end of it all (he had it for 2 years and didn't even realise the tumour was the size of a football), I would never have dreamed that things would go back to how they are now....

So.....I guess I mean to say that I hope the story will be the same for you chick. the word cancer fills so many of us with fear but medical science has come so far, especially in the states, I have so much faith in it all these days.

So, much love and best wishes for you hun!

Lol, Thank you Amber. Selling the house couldn't come at a better time. You won't see a bulliten or a blog about this on myspace because this isn't a "omg let me post this on myspace" kind of thing. Which I'm sure some of you are thinking "Um, this is a more public place than your private myspace page, why would you post it here instead?" I'll explain.

I have been on TA now for what - nearly five years? I can't think of how many nights I stayed up late talking to TA's about life, love, family, friends, or how many times I'd rush home from work just because I knew I needed to talk to a TA. I've traveled all across the country, met so many TAs, partied with TAs, stayed at different TAs houses... Had a whole mess of TAs rub my back as I was puking from drinking too much at a house party. It's like a whole community for me. My friends are concerned with how the cancer is going to affect THEM (ex: weddings) vs what I'm going through. You guys though... I have no obligations with you. None of you are COUNTING on me for anything. Strangely at a time like this, the support and wishes and love I got from all of you is like my backbone - which is crazy to think an online community is that! But if something happened to anyone else, we'd all be the same to them as well.

What I'm trying to say is - Thank you to everyone who came out of the woodwork, I know tons of you haven't posted in a while... hell I haven't been posting but for the past week or two, and I love you guys.

And Emil - we've already done the laporoscopy (sp?) before and that's getting done again to see the spreading.

hey Sara. I remember you from mIRC (not that we spoke) and when COR was fun.

Sorry to hear that you got diagnosed with this. It's a painful, especially on your age. I do hope everything turns out fine.

Whatever happens though, you are , still and will be the most attractive TA lady on this board!

Best of wishes!

No worries. I understand completely.

It's incredibly bizarre that you are experiencing this. I just had my laparoscopy April 17th... I am still recovering.
I find out officially this Wednesday during my post-op if they found any malignancies.

If you don't mind me asking, as I am experiencing the same thing, what did they see that they determined was cancerous? Did you have endo? I am concerned that I might have it, and it may get overlooked. Do you have any family history of it?

I can really relate to a lot of what you have gone through... and I know how fucked up it is. Like I said before, stay positive and strong. You will respond better to everything if you try.

We're some of the strongest people to have to be going through this. It's been 6 months for me, so if I can do it.... you can do it

Not you too!
I'll think positive for you every day, look after yourself and get well soon

also reminds me why I went through the barrage of needles for cervical cancer vaccine

Squirrelly, I've never spoke to you before...but with all of my heart, I wish for you to get better. Stay strong, do not let this primitive disease control you. You can do this!

Your wellbeing will be in the forefront of my mind.

The cells on the organs themselves are what shows the cancer. There's healthy cells, abnormal, and then cancerous. If they catch you in abnormal it's quick and easy to fix.

How are you still recovering from a laparoscopy? It should not be taking you that long - something's wrong with that.

I am infected... I think they sent me to work too quickly. The incision in my bellybutton has been torn open several times, and the lower incision is just being a dick.

Both incisions are not looking too good, and I am in a lot of pain They may have to restitch the bellybutton .

What I am wondering is if the endometrial cells could be cancerous.

How does this make sense? The Women's cancer center doesn't have a secretary... and I've left 3 messages saying I need an appt for Wednesday (tomorrow) because it's my only day off of work and they haven't called me back. The cancer center sure dropped the ball. Now I don't know if I should go back to my original dr or try to find a different one, or just show up at the center tomorrow and be like "HEY I NEED A DR!"

T- If they haven't said one word about them being cancerous I wouldn't even be concerned about it.

Ah yes, the fun of dealing with doctor's offices/medical centers

Sara -

You know we all love and care for you so much. I am so surprised and saddened to hear that you are going through this. I can't imagine what you must be feeling right now, but I am so glad that you have reached out to us TAs. You know I am always here for you, and I would love to catch you online sometime so we can talk. I miss our chats. If you need anything, please let me know.

All my love,

Amelia

Sara,

I haven't been in the c0r in ages....

...but I've always had a soft spot for you when you would visit the ATL for our loco smoking/drinking/bbq'ing extravaganza's.

Somebody mentioned that this thread was up, but I would have never in my wildest dreams thought that it could have been about somebody I've enjoyed a good amount of GREAT moments with.

I believe you can fight this. You are definitely strong enough. All of my prayers go out to you, babe.

Kick cancer's anus!

Thank you Javi & Amelia... I <3 you both.

I don't know what I'd do without the support of TA.
