Need mega vibes for my sister

I'm very sorry to hear about your sister's suffering. My heart goes out to you; I know you are in a lot of pain and grieving. I'm so sorry, it's so unfair and so so hard.

I am so sorry to hear this. I will be sending up prayers for her and her family. When will this horrid thing find a cure?

God bless.

OH no! I am so sorry to hear this. for comfort and peace for you, her and your family.

I didn't see this thread before.

I'm so sorry to hear about your sister! I will keep the both of you in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm so sorry to hear about Barb. I will keep her in my prayers that she has as pain free a time as possible. Having just lost my mother to cancer, I believe that that's the biggest blessing that can be.

I'm very sorry that it's progressed so quickly. You and Barb will be in my thoughts, John. It's so tough to lose a sibling - you expect to lose your parents at some point, but hope to have your siblings there to help you weather life's storms. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v194/jcatpics/cat smilies/hug.gif

Keeping your family in our thoughts and prayers.

I'm sorry to hear of this - for your sister and her family and friends.

Her cancer has returned and it is now very aggressive and spread far. In short, there is nothing else they can do for her other than to keep her as pain free as possible. My sister, her name is Barb, and I were very close. As I sit here writing this, a flood of memories have been going through my head thinking about the good times we had. To you Barb, I am going to do everything I can to continue these good memories, until it is your time to go. Thank you all for the kind words. I had prayed that this day wouldn't have come, but guess it wasn't meant to be. Please send comfort vibes to her, she will need them

My heart goes out to you all....I lost a "step sister" to ovarian cancer - it was so sad, she was only 36 with a 9yo daughter. In Dec.'08 she was thought to have overcome the ovarian cancer, but suddenly got a severe headache in April, that radiated to her back. After several trips to ER, she was sent to the university hospital for tests - the tumors had come back, and were along her spine; this was on Sunday night/Mon am. and she lasted until Thursday She is at peace now, over RB.
This was one year ago, and now one of our clients has had his treatments fail & he's in hospice. I have been working with his mom telephonically, and her boy is only a couple of months older than my youngest daughter. He's declining, and she is so torn between losing him & seeing him get final peace.
I wish that I had some real words of comfort to share, but I'm always so clumsy at these things. It's a tough row to hoe, so to speak - I know, because I've lost a 18yo nephew ( I was his mom's Lamaze coach & his "duena"), my 43yo brother (hit by a DUI), and a husband, all in the space of 18 months. And I know in your line of work, you have seen the "practical" side of life, too, but I don't know if it's any easier with experience or without.
I am sending mega prayers and vibes out to you all, especially your dear sister Barb

I went to visit Barb yesterday and seeing her like this was so much harder than hearing the news. I think for once, I was lost for words and just didn't know what to say. I hugged her, told her I was sorry, that I love her and will be there any way I can be. She cried in my arms. Thank you for the vibes and for caring

I can't imagine how hard it is. for you and many continued for her and all who care for her.

It isn't 100 % confirmed yet, but the doctor told her that by the size and appearance of the tumors/cysts, that more than likely, this is the case. She will be going to see the surgeon tomorrow (Thursday), so we will know more then. On a somewhat possitive note, she hasn't been feeling well since March and has had many tests and nothing else was found, so I don't think it has spread and I am praying that it has not. Any prayers and vibes would really be appreciated. Thanks.

I think at this point, you are doing all you can do for her..... making sure she knows she is special, loved and supported as much as can be.

John i'm so sorry I've been where you are now with my brother just under 2 years ago and it was awful

Lots of calm coming over for all of you

Continued for you and Barb and your families. I can't imagine how difficult this is for you.

John, I am so so very sorry... Many vibes and hugs to you all

Awww, thank you I do have more pics, especially of Carmelo.
Yes, this is hard, I won't lie. For all the support I have been getting, I can not thank you all enough. I have been having other private issues going on in my life and to have this added on top of it has been giving me a good dose of depression, to say the least. Thank God for good friends and our wonderful cats

I don't know how I missed this thread the first time, but I just wanted to let you know that you and your sweet sister are in my deepest prayers right now! Just know that you have a lot of people on here that care about you and are thinking of both of you right now

Hello everyone. Just thought I would stop by here and post a quick update. Things are not going good for Barb and in fact, she has all but lost her battle to this horrible disease. In fact, she may leave us within the next couple days. Her husband Derick and their daughter Lisa are going to need as many prayers, vibes and thoughts that you can give. Thank you for your support.
