In December DH was diagnosed with Hodgkins Lymphoma which is a type of cancer of the lymph nodes. He is doing extemely well with chemotherapy. Please remember that cancer is not often treatable and curable. You and your brother are in my prayers.

OH MY GOD crying again hurts really hurts me to think this.

Tracey40 · 04-18-2006, 09:18 AM

I will include you, your family and your brother in my prayers! It has been a rough year for alot of people getting this type of news!

My brother in law was diagnosed with aggressive lung cancer in late November. He is undergoing chemo treatments but has had all kinds of complications and has been in the hospital for almost 9-10 weeks now. he is 47 and strong so we are holding out for the best.

Remember that attitude and his fighting attitude will get him far. There are so many treatment options out there so help him to research them and doctors and I'm sure he will go far.

Road2Thin · 04-18-2006, 10:56 AM

SpiderLily, my prayers go up for your brother. I think the poster meant to say that it is "now treatable and curable." May God be with you and your family.

Yes that is what I was thinking, I am sure that is what that poster meant to say.

and prayers coming your way! God will take care of him.

Spider_Lily · 04-18-2006, 12:48 PM

I think it is worse than he told me because his son told my Dh today he was selling his land and letting his jeep he just got go back.And said he wasn,t going to do treatments.So it doesn,t sound good to me.

Oh dear I am so sorry sweetie. You must be so upset. Life sure is hard sometimes huh?

Tracey40 · 04-18-2006, 02:12 PM

I have researched all kinds of treatments etc since my brother in law has had cancer. There are some that have been given 2-3 months to live and don't take that as an answer and are able to get into remission. He may need someone to talk to. Find out what is going on with him, get a second opinion, research treatments, there is always hope when that person is still breathing!

I feel for your family!!!

Spider_Lily · 04-23-2006, 06:42 PM

Well everyone you know I told you I had a feeling my brother is worse than he told me .well he is.I talked to my Sister-in-law while he was out and she said he had three tumors right now that they knew of.They are going to Pensacola Fla.for more test and them to Birmingham Alabama to the cancer treatment center to give him the test resultsAnd we will know where it is in his body and the time he has left .Its in the last stage now he's had it a while and didn,t know it .I am so scared for him the doctor told her he could go to sleep and never wakeup or he may last a week or a month or so but no more than that and if by chance he does he will be in so much pain he can,t hardly bare it.I wonder whats going through his mind .I know its probably not going to be long he is getting all his business taken care of .sold his land yesterday and paying off his car and house with the money.He doesn,t want her to have any bills left to pay.He acts like theres nothing wrong.But I see it in his eyes the worry I have cried till I can,t

and can,t rest .Lord please help us.

auntiem59 · 04-23-2006, 06:53 PM

Sweeter-than-Splenda · 04-26-2006, 04:03 PM

Lily..and many many

prayers to you, your brother, his family and everyone! He must be so scared. Just be there for him and tell how much you love him. I lost a brother to liver cancer at age 41. He went into the hospital and 2 weeks later he was gone. I never got the chance to see him and tell him how much I loved him. Keep the faith and I will surely say many prayers for you.

shananigan · 04-26-2006, 11:44 PM

My prayers are with you, your family and your brother. I pray that God will work on his mind and that he will not take a defeatest attitude but fight.

Take care.
