Default Sad Day

Just found out the wife has cancer. Had it for four months, didn't know. They were treating her for something else. So much for the health care in this country. Maybe you guys could throw a few prayers her way???

Sorry to hear. Prayers coming your way. Sometimes it takes time, as with car issues to figure things out....but I guess at other times I guess they bonehead the diagnosis. Since your in Minn maybe you can get her to the Mayo. Thats where I would be looking. Good Luck and thoughts to both of you!

This is sad news, and I`ll send a prayer your way.
The good news is it can be beaten.
My ex-wifes stepfather was diagnosed with cancer of the liver in 1986 they gave him 6 months, he says its mind over matter, and is still going strong.
Keep the faith, and together you will overcome.
God Bless.

Prayers and best wishes to you both, my Dad was diagnosed with prostrate cancer and treated it as aggressively as possible, it worked, that and his uber positive attitude, been free of it for over 20 years, and continues to be tested ,,,,,clean, now he's 93 and slowly losing it to senior dementia but if it wasnt so sad it'd be funny, keep the faith and kick the $h!t outta it. Peace,,,Moosie

My prayers are with you. 3 of my grandparents were diagnosed with cancer. I hope there is no lasting damage from the other treatments. Try to keep a postitive attitude.

Good Luck, Smadoo

Believe me, once her spiritual wounds heal up, she will be strong enough to get that cancer defeated, and only you can heal these wounds, stay close to her and let her feel that she is not alone.
