Ann & Thomas thank you.

Thomas....l am sorry, your family have gone through it have'nt they?
So much can be done nowadays l know, and they have caught my sisters early too, so fingers crossed. If the gene is from our fathers side l will advice my daughter gets checked.

Positive thoughts to all who have relatives fighting the big C, having lost my Dad to lung cancer and more recently a good friend, and knowing other friends have been touched by this illness, I can only be thankful that there hasn't been more of it in my own family. I am always concerned with any changes in myself, but have all the checks that are offered and can do no more, other than try to eat healthily and sensibly, most of the time and trust to fate.

Another blessing for all who need it.
And we all need blessings.
How are your family Jude?
Chin up and keep on keeping on love.

We had email and phone call yesterday from Vic's sister......she may have to have her spleen removed. They sill don't know whats wrong with her, but her spleen is enlarged. Although she's eating abit more now she is still coughing badly and gets very tired. l gather the abdomen scans were for the spleen!!
Her husband is still not at all well and hardly doing anything, especially eating, he weighs approx 100lbs. He has emphersemia (sp) .

Still not heard from my sister and l have emailed her, so l am abit anxious now!!

Deanna....how are you??

Just got back from sons:o) (k...nackered)

Found emails......

One from s i l....her husband is in hospital and should be staying there atleast a few days.
S i l should get her spleen results soon!! Maybe tomorrow!

My sister...had her gene's test results and they are all fine, so her daughter does'nt have to go through all the checks, nor do l, my sisters over here and my daughter:o))))
Her ovaries don't have to be removed either:o))
Her double mastectomy is booked for 28th May, still such along time to wait poor girl.

So some good and some not so good news!!

Jude ,still thinking of you all, xx

Thanks Mummo:o)

l don't know if l am coming or going....can't sleep so just checking
emails.......had another one from s i l....her friend who is a nurse has helped sort a few things out, so her husband is back from hospital, just eaten a cake and a cup of coffee, the most he's eaten in ages. He's depressed aswell as all his other probs, so they are addressing that at the moment:o))

Jude, glad your sister has been in contact. It does seem a long time to wait before her mastectomy, I agree. But other countries are not so fortunate as us, as I reckon Dutch would agree. I think her diabetic care is very poor, but it all has to be paid for by insurance, privately.

Hello Jean:o)
Yes quite agree with you:o)

Sister in law has Non Hodgkins Lymphoma, is awaiting results now from Bone marrow,this will help them decide how much chemo she'll need, either 1 or upto 3 days a month.
Its better news really and she won't need the operation now:o)

Waiting to hear from my sister.....l offered to go out there and help her, l think she's in shock...lol

A quick update.......

My s i l starts her chemo on Tuesday then again on Wednesday and then once a month. Her hubby is doing really well although still on oxygen 24-7.

My sister's op is 28th May.....:o((

Hi Jude,

Let's hope the chemo doesn't make your s.i.l. too unwell, some people's bodies seem to cope better than others. I hope her hubby continues to do well, what a worry for them both.

It's a long wait for your sister's op, hope it goes well, and she got over the shock of your offer to help lol I hope all goes ok for her

Lizxx

Jude just pop on to say hope all goes well for your sister and hope shes not in too much pain,gentle (((((((((((((((((((((((hugs ))))))))))))))))))))))to you and your family,take care
