This morning I had to take my 12 yr old daughter and my 11 yr old granddaughter to the hospital for same day surgery. The 12 yr old was just getting tubes in her ears. The 11 yr old was getting T-tubes in her ears and her adnoids taken out.
When the dr talked to me before the surgeries he told me the first one (the 11 yr old), would take about 30 minutes. The 2nd one 15 minutes. Ok no big deal.
They came and got Bethanie (11 yr old one) and said they would get Taylor after they finished up.
45 minutes past still waiting. Finally after an hour the dr came out and told me that she was doing fine but they had had a problem. When he went into her throat to remove the adnoids he discovered a growth the size of a marble. So he removed it and sent it to pathology. He doesnt think it is anything to be worried about, just sent it to be on the safe side.
Ok, I am trying to keep it together. As most of you know I lost my daughter, my father, my sister and my grandmother to cancer. Now here is my granddaughter, the daughter of the daughter I lost with a growth in her throat. The results will be back on the 26th. hopefully it will be nothing. Logically I know it is probably nothing. telling that to my heart is something totally different.
When we finally left the hospital, I stopped in the town where we used to live to check the post office box for mail, as we were going thru town we passed a funeral proccession coming from the church we had attended. I got my cell phone and called my pastors wife. She told me it was for Jimmy, He died Sat. night. He was a dear sweet man that had developed cancer in the kidneys. No one called to tell me. I didnt get a chance to say good bye to him.
So here I am dealing with these thoughts of cancer and what pops into my head? What if it is cancer and she has to go thru treatments like her mother did? Will my H cheat on me again because he cant handle it? I dont think I could survive this again.
I called my son, my xh and her other grandparents to let them know what was going on.
I feel like I am barely hanging on here. I am so tired of being strong, of having to hold myself together.
Bethanie is sleeping now. She doesnt know about the growth yet. I wanted to wait until she was clear headed and I had a chance to pull myself together.
I know its been awhile since I have posted here. hopefully you will remember me.
I just need a place to vent my feelings. I am scared and have no place to go.

I'm sorry you have this worry. My heart hurts for you and I can't think of anything to say, but I like what Sunny said: you and your H are different people now. Hang on just a little bit longer.
Rooting for you! J

Lori, I am so sorry to hear about this. I like what Sunny and the others said. You've had a huge plate the last couple of years and I pray that is nothing, and she will be just fine! Prayers and hugs for you Lori. {{{{{{ }}}}}}}

Thanks guys.
No, I dont really have anyone to lean on. Usually my sister is there but she has a new boyfriend first one in years so she is caught up in that.
I am trying to let go and let God handle it. It is hard.
Today my 24 yr old son told me that he signed up in the army. He is going active duty. leaves for bootcamp in 10 days. My DIL and grandson will be staying with us while he is in bootcamp and then they will go where ever he will be stationed. I am scared for my son. I have already lost one child I cant handle losing another one. I have gotten so attached to Hayden (my grandson) it is going to be hard to let him go. My heart is shattering in a million pieces.
I feel so alone. (In a house full of kids LOL)
