You're in our thoughts. I know first hand how scary it is. My wife started radiation on Tuesday. Luckily they caught the breast cancer while it was still very small and removed all of it cleanly. Still, after the diagnosis I sat in my office and cried...

Very scary... A friend of mine turned 35 in Feb and was diagnosed with S2 breast cancer a few weeks ago. Her surgery is Wednesday.

So sorry to hear. Hope they figure out what's going on soon.

You're a good man. I got milk the other night. I cried in the garage for about 5 minutes. It's horrible to see someone you love in pain.

Bucky, it's really interesting that you say this. Mary's B12, vitamin D, and iron levels are very low. The doctors are thinking that's what it is now. My son gave her a B12 shot today.

It's a short term PITA but the upside is MUCH better than MS. My wife was diagnosed in December and is going back for more tests next week. I'm optimistic.

Thank you for asking. She's feeling about the same, but I'm told the B12 shots and vitamins she's taking could take a while to work. As for me, I've had Crohn's for 30 years. I havent had a flare up in years because I go to my doctors office for Remicade infusions every 8 weeks. Unfortunately I'm having a flare up again. We're quite the pair right now.

Once again, thank you for asking.

It's a good day when you're vertical, especially when you have your friend's hand to hold in yours.

Wishing comfort........ for you both to enjoy tomorrow.
