Cancer update

Post by Mary J »

Hi everyone,

Thought I'd send you an update. It's been a long hard 3 weeks. I got very sick on the chemo. Had to be admitted to the hospital for a week. Am feeling better. Started back on chemo this Tues. The Dr lowered my dose a bit. Doing better this time. Slightly nauseous this morning. Hope it passes soon. Still doing radiation 5 days a week. The tumor is shrinking, so that's good news. And my pain is lessening as it shrinks.

Started losing my hair. So yesterday I had it shaved and bought a wig.

Mary- You are such a brave woman and have a wonderful attitude. How brave to post your bald picture. Your wig is adorable. I hope the worst is behind you. Lulu who publishes infrequently has been in remission for about three years and is doing well. Hugs and best wishes!

You are a truly beautiful woman, inside and outside. You inspire me. :ymapplause: When we are in crisis, we either rise above it or let it take us down. God is always there for us and we have learned we can do hard things with His help. Our prayers are with you. God bless you and surround you with healing angels. Much Love to you from all of us. :ymhug: :-* :x

Love the wig but love you more for sharing.
God richly bless you and heal you completely.

Thank you ladies! If the tumor shrinks enough Dr plans on surgery to remove it. So praying this happens and they are able to get it all. Didn't take long to think about posting my shaved bald head, LOL. After what I've been through lately that was an easy decision :)

Hugs,

Hi Mary,

I just wanted to pop in and tell you that I'm still thinking about you and still praying for you. I hope you are feeling okay and that the good news continues. I plead the blood of Jesus over you and pray for your complete and total healing as well as a peace that surpasses understanding as you go through this. You are BELOVED and one of His favorite daughters! :ymhug:

Thank you so much everyone for thinking about me and sending your prayers. They mean a lot to me. I've been off of chemo and radiation for about 3 weeks now. So I am feeling much better at this time. Still don't have all my strength back, but getting there.

I'll post again after my next CT Scan April 7th.

Hugs to all of you!

Mary, God is our Great Physician. My prayer for you is to be healed from the inside out. Jesus can do what He says He can do, because He is Who He says He is. I've experienced His healing in my family the last two years. I 'm grateful for medical knowledge, but know prayers sent us to the right places at the right time. May God of All Comfort continue to bless you. Love and prayers, JF
