Fighting for ferals in NW NJ!
How unbelievably - unbearably - sad.


Linda sounds like a truly wonderful, very special person. Yes, absolutely, cherish what time you do have left with her.


I will light a candle for her, and hold you all close in my thoughts. Sending mega-healing vibes her way, and oodles of hugs to you.

I've always believed that special people such as your sister have a special place waiting for them right next to God. I think your sister will be one of them.


I don't even know what to say, except I'll be praying for her and sending lots of vibes.

Where in Texas does you sister live? Maybe I can visit her with a special gift basket or something to lighten her spirits a little if she's not too far away...

Many, many, many for your sister. It's so sad that the doctors failed her like that. What a heartbreaking story. She sounds like a wonderful person. My heart goes out to her and to you.

I cried reading your post; I can't put into words how sorry I am that you and Linda are going thru this pain. What an incredible, loving woman she must be. Please don't give up. Miracles happen every day, and I know all of us here are praying for one for your family.
I'm so very, very sorry.

I told Linda about posting here and she cried and asked me to thank all of you for her.

She saw Dr. Ross at MD Anderson; he believes she is stage III, or hopefully, possibly stage II! TCS prayers and vibes do help miracles happen! She's not out of the woods by a long shot, she is having 11 hours of testing done on Sept. 16, then faces at least one surgery (best case scenario). But there is so much HOPE now! Thank you so much!

Those of you who asked questions and/or PM'd me, please forgive me for not answering right now. I've developed some health issues of my own; my doctor squeezed me in yesterday for my symptoms of blacking out at random times, extreme pain in my neck, shoulders, and hands, and my hands are tingling like they are always just waking up and I have no strength in them. I can't even open my meds. My hands and feet are swollen, as are my lymph nodes. At the doctor's yesterday I had 103.5 fever - no wonder I've been feeling so sick, I thought it was stress. I'm having more tests done Tuesday.

At least it's something physical and I can get better. When it rains it pours!

Thank you again for your good thoughts, vibes, and prayers! I will keep updating this thread as I get more news.

You definitely need a hug!

I know your sister isn't out of the woods by any means, but this sounds like a huge ray of hope shining down on her. Hopefully, the tests results will be good news.
Please take care of yourself, as well. Your family is going thru so much right now. Tons of (((healing vibes))) going out to you and all your loved ones.

I'm so glad to hear your sister's situation is better than originally though. It would be devastating to lose her I'm sure


Sending many more vibes for good news to keep coming for her.

Oh hon, that's such wonderful news! And MD Anderson is the right place for her -- they've worked so many miracles, including my Aunt Peggy, as you might recall.

Continuing the good thoughts for your sister, and for you, too... don't worry about PMing now, just update us here when you can.

Wrapping you all in healing light, my friend...
