I am so sorry you are going through this; I know what it is like to face a cancer diagnosis and worry about what will happen to your family. I was diagnosed with uterine cancer in October and am the sole support of a mother with dementia and an autistic sister. Like you, I caught my cancer early without spreading outside the uterus. My six month check up was clear, but I don't think the fear will ever really go away. The Big C will always be lurking in my thoughts, but I determined not to let fear rule. I will be sending good thoughts your way; I think you will have had your follow up surgery by the time this goes out...All the best. Keep us up to date.

All of your prayers have been heard. Thank you so much. So here's the results...

We are lucky to find out that from what they could see on my stomach and pancreas it's looking like it was only the one tumor which has now been removed. I will follow up next week by swallowing a little pill that is actually a camera and will confirm whether or not the is anymore throught my whole digestive track.

Then I meet with the oncologist in Boston and will see what happens which all the bloodwork and tests I will have. then I just follow p every 6 months to make sure noting has grown back.

I am so incredibly happy and grateful :) thank for all the love and prayers!!! You guys rock!!!!!

Wow! This is actually a miracle that the tumors were found! This is life saving in itself! I know it is really scary and to look at your baby and think "I might not be here to see her growing up and see my grandchildren. " My thoughts are with you and I want you to have nothing but the best. Do you have a support person that you can talk too. It really helps to talk about what your going through.

I'm a 23 yr survivor of Lymphoma - I was 31 when it was found and had 3 young children. More people survive cancer than die from it!! Its a shock but you will get through this and thank God that you were going through all this testing so they could find it because your are right, going through an endoscopy is not something that a Dr would routinely do for a 25 yr old! We are here for you!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
