In a perfect world, no child would ever be sick. It grieves me to hear about Peter, and I will pray for him.

Woot for found rings & healings & graceful deaths! I've been in geriatrics enough to see possibly hundreds of people "select" the day they die.

jenny, you don't have to be a religious person (fwiw, I don't consider myself a religious person), just ask for grace in spite of not being familiar with your God, and ask for successful surgeries. Not one of us could ever pray enough to warrent the graces of the Almighty! (and I"d pray for your own peace, too!)

Praying for you both Jenny and Lucy.

Well, in addition to Peter (who had a chemo treatment yesterday), please add my friend Angie. She confided in me yesterday that she was diagnosed with full blown uterine cancer in October, had a full hysterectomy in December (except for part of one egg, to help keep her from going through menopause), and finds out on Monday if it's spread elsewhere. She just turned 30 last July, and has 2 little girls.

First surgery went well! The majority of the tumor is out! He lost a lot of blood and will be in the ICU for the next two days. Lots of texts from his mom today.

Tomorrow is my stepdads. I"m sick to my stomach about it because I'm an idiot and looked up the stats on it.

Thanks for the prayers.

My dads surgery went well! He's in a lot of pain right now but my mom said hes been teasing the nurses so thats good news. The lymph nodes looked good so hopefully the cancer hasn't spread!

The kid that had surgery on Monday is now out of the ICU and walking around.

Thank you so much for all the prayers and support.

I'm coming up on my due date and still praying that the little one is okay. I had an unscheduled position ultrasound last week and the baby is not breech, but they want me to go in for another one today.

I just posted about this in the "What do you feel like saying" thread, but I'm going to start a new internship and I'm really excited about it! I think it is just the kind of thing I've been looking for!

I hardly post on here anymore so I feel almost wrong coming ot this thread but....

I can use some good thoughts. Mom and I were in a car accident 1/4 and her shoulder is pretty messed up from it. On top of it, I found out I might be headed towards a 4th ankle surgery and am having back problems again (but I will do everything in my power to avoid another back surgery). And she doesn't know yet when she is getting her car back because Toyota is having a problem getting this part they need to fix her car. And the guy who hit us is suing my Mother.

Add in the pressure I am under from school and I'm in an awful funk, I don't even want to socialize really.

No need to feel "wrong" to come to this thread... keeping you in my thoughts. You sound kind of depressed and definitely overly stressed. Have you considered talking to a counselor at the school's health services?

I've thought about it... but I'm not sure if I'm going to. I have a problem opening up to people and the thought of having to talk to someone like that scares me to be honest.

I am beyond stressed at this point. I just need to remember to breathe.

On top of it... Mom's going for surgery on Friday (just found out the date). They found 2 cysts and they won't know more until they operate.
