a long time.......................

Posted this in the main forum but wanted to post here too.Could use lots of prayers and good thoughts

Hi everyone its been a really long time since i posted.Have had a year from hell lost a brother to a rare form of cancer last Oct.Doc thought i had an anurysm (thankfully not)but it led to other medical test .I had to have some stents in my heart have had heartburn ever since.a week after having the stents my father was diagnosed with throat cancer(a tumor the size of a golf ball)i had to quit smoking.have gained about 15 lbs. A lot has went on at work that is stressful(did i mention i'm a postal worker????who uses a hormone patch now i have to go for another heart cath on Monday.still trying to figure out what causes the heartburn.Just so much going on and I'm overwhelmed and depressed.Physically and mentally exhausted plus i work 6 days a week.I know somewhere along the way things have got to get better.i think the stents are just as much mental as physical.the pain from the heartburn keeps me in a panic.kinda like the memorex commercial "Is it real or is it memorex?? its it heartburn or heart attack??"Sorry for whining but i thought it might help to get it off my chest. and hopefully one of ya will tell me a better day is headed my way thanks for reading!

Im sorry that you are having such a rough time with things right now. I had a best friend who had throat cancer...Im not sure how big his tumor was but I can tell you he is back to his normal life. So that is a positive. Your Dad can recover from this.

I know how nerve-wracking health issues can be when you are dealing with them. You are doing all the right things for yourself though. As far as your dad goes..you can't do much so carrying all the stress is only going to make things worse for you. I'm sure you know that in your heart but sometimes hearing helps. I have a feeling your dad would want you to focus on your health before stressing about him.

Just remember whenever you need to vent, cry , screm or yell I'm here to listen and help where I can.

Now take a deep breath and let go of everything you can't control!!
