I've been overwhelmed since Christmas...I have breast cancer.

I'm scared but I can honestly say that I'm stronger as a result of having met all of you. My H...well, he's distraught.

Please keep me in your thoughts.
Thank you for having helped me to build my strength and character all these years.

My dear T,

I am sorry to hear of your recent diagnosis. You certainly are not alone in dealing with this issue. In addition to your immediate support you will find how others are dealing with the same diagnosis. I am not in the medical field but maybe others who have such experience will stop by.

Does the WS know?

Hugz,

Has your cancer been staged yet?

I am so sorry for this news.

I'm glad you popped in. I JUST read an OLD OLD post of mine that you encouraged me on.

I'm so sorry you're going through this.

I'm stunned. I'll say prayers for you.

I was hoping to hear some fun updates from your Vegas weekend....this is not the kind of news I was expecting.

Everyone here loves you...please keep in touch.

Expect a phone call!

Hello everyone,

Good to hear from my wise old MB buddies...

Orchid...my H does know. His family...well they have and continue to be by my side all the way. My MIL...she says I'm a daughter not a DIL. My SIL's...with me all the way. My H...rid with guilt...is distraught by the news.

Ark...I will email you. One of the reasons I came back to the board is because it's a part of me, my survival...who I am today. Also perhaps...because I see the pain in my H's eyes. He has caused so much pain...and now after three years of hell, there's a different reality he has to confront. I would never want to be in his shoes. To know that I caused pain so deeply and then watch someone suffer physically on top of it all...no, I am glad that I had all of you to maintain my dignity and integrity. I am finally glad I'm me and not him.

Pepper...my cancer has not been staged. However, it is a grade 2. My surgery is on the 23rd...my post op is on March 31st at which time I will find out the stage.

Lex, I'm stunned too. Just when I thought I was starting to come up obove sea level...however, the betrayal experience has given me a strength I would have never had to confront this reality.

Dani, Faith, Realtor...thank-you for your kind words and thoughts.

Terrified,

I am more of lurker, but you have been one of the individuals that my heart went out to. You have continously been in my prayers. Tonight I will pray harder. Please stay strong. All these people on the board are wonderful souls. Keep posting and let them continue to support you and be the strength you need to take the next step.

Wow,

I started a post for terrified a couple months ago and there was no response from Terrified.

Terrified, just want you to know we think of you and you still are in our prayers.

Terrified, if you ever lurk here, just know that a lot of prayers were prayed that your surgery went well and that all is well with you.

God Bless you and keep you, girl. You are worthy.

Love in Christ,
Miss M
