Dear Carol
 
Roxie and I just returned to the living world and wish you all the best.  I just sent you a E-Mail with a little more personal response.  I can tell you for sure that you will win this battle just like you have won all of your other big encounters.
 
Hang in there kid
 
Love

Well, it’s good to know what you’re up against, AND that you don’t have lung cancer.  Being a 19 year survivor of a sarcoma in my shoulder, I feel quite positive about your situation now.  Medicine has come so far since my surgery; and there are many more alternatives. 

 

God speed your recovery.  You’re in my thoughts and prayers.

 

Hugs,

Hummy

Hi Lolly. Then, you might have your thoracic surgery during the week of the 15th June??
 
   I'm thinking about you and dropping into this thread every day to see how you're doing. Your strength is giving me strength. I wish I could return the favour.

Hi Lolly,
 
You are in my thoughts today. I hope all the test proved nothing to be concerned with. It is so nice to hear your positive approach to this. That is what I loved about you when I first came to this site. I have often wondered how nice it must be to sit and look out your window. Your smile is infectious.
Hugs

Lolly, my thought and prayers are with you.  When I read your post it stopped me cold and I just couldn't find the words to respond.  In my family I have heard the "Big C" way to much, but that is my family.  I know you are a fighter and you have all of us fighting right along side of you.  There is so much they can do for a person today that couldn't be done years ago.  I have faith that you will show us all how to walk though this with grace and dignity.  You are a fighter and I know you will fight as hard as you can.  Win this fight!!!

Lolly -
I'm not sure we have met, but my prayers are with you.  The fact that even though you are going through this and still took the time to share the story and show support is demonstrable of the strength you have.  It more than enough to beat this.  Keep the positive attitude you have and take it one day at a time. 
 
YOU CAN DO IT.  Keep us posted!
