I also had good news from CT and yesterday MRI revealed no nodes, T2(whatever that means). I am suppose to talk to surgeon tomorrow now that all tests are done. It’s been agonizing and scary waiting and waiting! Wish me luck tomorrow. Best of luck to you as well!!!
Hi! I’m sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Praying for you that the CT scan is 100%! I have stage 3c adenocarcinoma colon cancer that did ugh go into my lymph nodes. I did not get my treatment plan until after the surgery because they did not stage me until they got it out. It did not spread to any organs however so chemo is a precaution to keep it that way! Like RJ said, my faith and church family and friends and relatives have been so supportive and helpful that it makes getting thru it so much easier . You sound like a positive person so that will help you as well!!! I found every hurtle to cause anxiety but told myself each time that I was allowed a few minutes of a pity party, but then I am done. It’s happened. Can’t change that. What CAN you change? How you and others view it. This experience has drawn my son and I closer, and the Lord and I as well. You said you have some littles at home? How young are they? My son is 16! We just got back from vacation in Fl. I am from NYS. I had planned this vacation and paid almost everything up front before I knew about the surprise cancer. I was told don’t bet on going from my surgeon and my family. But my oncologist said go. We will work it out! It was amazing. I enjoyed everything so much more than I would have otherwise. It was all about giving my son memories. So use this as a tool to motivate you to make the best of everything! You are a warrior and very brave and will get thru this! ❤️ I know you will because I am doing it. And you can too!
