Nighty night @Former-Member 😴💜

Feeling 😢😳 @Former-Member
My daughter said to me last night that she doesn’t want to go back to the specialist again to hear, again, what the test showed and that she could live and she could die. I can’t say too much about it on the forums.

I try to block it out as much as possible and pretend it’s not happening, but when I hear things like that, it breaks my heart 💔


That’s really good that your daughter broke up with that guy. Hopefully she’ll find someone nicer.

💜🌷🌸☕️

Oh my dear @Former-Member - I would feel the same. Sending a warm hug 🤗

I am not sure what procedure your daughter will need "but every specialist has to tell the worst case scenario" to cover themselves legally. I hear those fatal risks all the time with my husband and they are frightening. I am thinking this is what you are referring to?

 And your daughter is so young to be having to take this all in. The likelihood of the latter is rare - get a good surgeon and this would turn your daughter's life around for the better. I can understand your daughter's hesitation, my husband and I have been through this a few times - but if she is made to see that the positives outweigh the negatives, and with support - she will go back to see him.

My husband is putting his neck surgery on hold - the negatives outweigh the positives for now.

And he has to see a heart specialist....it goes on and on. Feel for you, I know how anxiety producing this situation is but being positive will see you both through it. 

Its good to live for the day and only deal with things when we need to, otherwise it will overwhelm. But it is heartbreaking. Be gentle on yourself and each other - supporting and being there for each other. 

I think I slept a total of three hours sleep last night. It's getting to be a real problem, but I am pushing through today, have done a lot of cardio aerobics, washing, cleaning, stitching etc. I worry about mania spurts triggered by stress and worry, but I am remaining calm. One day at a time for us. I am trying not to worry........

Am here for you anytime you need to talk Bella. Everything will work out, it will have its bumps but it will be alright. Hugs 😘

Thanks for caring @Former-Member 💜😘
Specialist said last time that he doesn’t think anything can be done. That’s the hard part. 😳😢 Said it’s one of the worst he’s seen.

Have to rush out to doctor now. Chat more soon. ☕️

Ohhh @Former-Member, , @Former-Member sending you lots of hugs

[Former-Member]

Hello @Shaz51 - good to see you. Hope your health is good now 💞

Oh dear @Former-Member - I don't know what is wrong with your daughter but it may help to seek a couple of other specialist opinions and options? Every situation is different but a cancer specialist told my husband he had 18 mths to live 21 years ago - told him to go away and die. They refused to treat him saying there was nothing they could do as it was terminal. We were shocked and distressed at first - then got angry and determined. We sought other opinions and prayed hard - although he still has cancer and still receives treatment, he is in remission and is still here loving me today. Don't give up.

Is your daughter's father being supportive to her? A lot to carry for one so young. Heartbreaking for a parent 😓.  Hope all goes well at the doctors. Thinking of you and am here for you ❤️

Thanks @Former-Member @Shaz51

We have taken her to a specialist and 2 top surgeons. All said the same thing. 😢

Just had skin cancer cut off my face. Took too much prn 😳
Still had trouble relaxing, even though I took too much.

Feeling too exhausted from it to be able to think to reply properly. So relieved he was able to remove it today though.
💜🌷

[Former-Member]

Amazing re your husband @Former-Member
Glad he/you have fight. 👍❤️

[Former-Member]

So there is no option for surgery @Former-Member?

Glad you got the removal of the skin cancer over and done with - that's always a relief. One thing out of the way ✔️

Did you know that scientific studies have been conducted with the conclusion that green tea can help prevent skin cancers? (and other ailments)

I hope you have had a chance to unwind and relax now 

I am starting to drift in and out off lulla land - hopefully I will sleep tonight. May need to do some more stitching to keep me from falling asleep too early. 🙇‍♀️x
