Brain tumor update......... could've gone better

Well, got my lab results and on a scale of 1 to 4, with 1 being benign (the best), I got a 4.

Pretty rare kind of tumor, so we're going to do radiation and possibly chemo as well to ensure it's all gone. I'm good with this.

I still have good faith, but last day or 2 has been stressful. They don't know what caused it, so I can't really avoid getting another one without prayer and good luck. I'm hoping this is a one time deal.

Just wanted to keep my friends posted. Other than this, we're doing fine.

 

I wish you the best. As hard as it is please keep a good attitude, look at all your treatment options, and live every day to the fullest.

 

Positive mental attitude man...

No one knows what cause this.

 

Keep that positive outlook and the we will supply the power of prayer.
Good luck!

Best Wishes........

keep your head up man..like said before "positive mental attitude"

do what you have to do to treat it, thats about all one can expect.
I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

 

HotRodders are a tough breed, we never give up.

 

Just keep your mind elsewhere and don't let it beat you. It is business as usual...........My best to you.

 

I'm wishing you the best. I usually do not reply to this type of thread.....just say a little prayer and move on. I'm a RN and deal with these type of situations daily sometimes multiple times a day. I try to protect myself from the mental drain but at the same time try to NOT become the cold-hearted nurse....it's a fine line.

As of yesterday I also started taking chemo-drugs for an autoimmune disorder that is attacking many internal organs and know a little about how you feel right now. Very little to be exact....but I do know many thoughts you'd never even considered are now popping up. If you ever need to chat PM me no matter whether it is about AD trucks (had a couple) to medical terms (My background is Emergency Room, Intensive care and Cardiac Intensive care). Not exactly what you might need but I'll do my best to help you out.

Best wishes and thinking of ya,
Curly

 

Positive vibes and best wishes for you and yours!
Hot rodders are good stock and tough!

 

You'll beat it man, good luck.

 

good luck to you and everybody on the HAMB will be praying for you.

 

Prayers DO count and you have a lot of them coming your way. Keep a positive attitude, it can make a difference.

 

ours prayers are with you john , hang in there man..

 

Good mental attitude is everything, I would sugest reading "The Secret". I think its one of the best reads ever. Hope this helps, keep your head up. My Mom just went through it, everything will be fine if you expect it too be.

 

I'm living proof of the power of HAMB prayers. When I had my accident in May, "lowcab" posted up the info here that my wife had posted on a skateboard message board. By the home I got home, there were 5 pages of well wishes. I had a badly broken neck and I WALKED out of the hospital two days after surgery! Hang in there and know that there are a lot of friends that you haven't met that are praying for you..........

 

My wife read this. So, this book is not a bunch of hog-wash I take it ???

 

Sending positive thoughts and prayers your way bud.

 

I wish you the best and a quick recovery.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Next Wednesday my oldest son will have his second brain tumor operation at the Cleveland Clinic. He had his first operation there a little over three years ago but they didn't get it all. Best of luck to both.

 

You are in my prayers buddy! And Fuel Pump your son too.

 

You will be in my prayers. Keep the faith and put it all in His hands.

Live as if tomorrow isn't promised to you, for it isn't for any of us.

Fight the good fight, live the good life. Everything else will fall into place.

 

Very powerfull book.!!!

 

The power of prayers are great,
AND here's ours for you,

God Speed & Gods love to ya .........

 

Prayers from Ohio are with you John. You have a positive attitude that will help you get through this; keep your faith.

Just lost a friend to colon cancer. He fought it for a couple years. He really didn't die of colon cancer though, his liver died from all the chemo. The doctors refer to any cancer related death as the one that started it all, so he didn't die of liver failure, he died of colon cancer. Not that it matters to us, as we just lost a friend, but it looks good to their insurance bean counters..

I wish you the very best treatment and response.

 

Hang in there the power of pray is awesome.....I will pray that you make a full recovery, remember god did not say life would be easy but he said I will take care of you if you believe in me .......
