Week of Judgment

Hello Everyone, it's been awhile.  Hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.  I'm in here now because this Thursday will be my return to the surgeon to check on Harvey and his hopefully melting demise.  If Harvey has melted more, then the surgeon may leave me alone for three months and watch...or he might do a biopsy anyway.  If Harvey has not gotten smaller, I'm positive he will do a biopsy. The biopsy can come back positive or negative.  If negative, then they will leave me alone for three months.  If positive, then I am assuming that the next step will be an APR (abdominal resection).  So...the worse can scenario is the APR.  I have three chances on this going well:  1) no tumor 2) markedly decreased tumor and biopsy that comes back negative; 3) no decrease in tumor but biopsy comes back negative.  I will be happy with 1, 2 or 3 and pray for those outcomes.  Pray for those outcomes too...I will need your prayers for this this week.  Thursday is the appt.  Will come back in here on Friday.  Thank you for being there and being so supportive.  Love to you all, Marilyne

  1. The waiting and wondering is always the worst part of this journey. Praying most of all for that peace that passes all understanding.
