Finally figured it out

After all these months, all his pain, all my pushing for answers and asking for support.

My husband has lung cancer!

Oh, Sweetie, I am so sorry. Is this a definitive diagnosis? Was there a tissue biopsy done? What's the game plan?

Prayers and major ((((HUGS))). There are some VERY mighty prayers warriors here, on the TMB, you know!

Praying for you both!

I am so sorry to hear this.   Praying for you and your dear husband.   Praying that if they decide to operate on him that they will get it all out.   Please keep in touch with us and let us know if there is anything that we can do to help you out.   Big hugs coming your way and tons of prayers.

 

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

I am so sorry to hear that.  I will surely keep you and yours in prayers and mediation.

Keeping you in thought!

I was going to post something about the lack of compassion regarding my post on 6/6/2013 that my husband passed away. I saw your signature line about grief (notated below) and it stopped me. I remember you totally and I so appreciate all your kind messages in the past. Thank you for stopping me from being the kind of person I do not appreciate in others. mxekin65. I do hope you are doing well!

 

Grief is not a sign of weakness, nor a lack of faith ...
it is the price of love.

It's only natural to lash out, it's part of the grieving process.  Unfortunately, it's just something we adapt to. You will never be "over it".  You will have good days, you will have bad days.  I don't get on the board much any more but that doesn't mean that I will ever forget how the TMB pulled me together during my first year with the loss of my Chito.  Alyssa gave me a book from Zig Zigler (Confessions of a Grieving Christian) and I've read in bits and pieces.  She gave it to me 4 years ago, I haven't finished it yet.. it's the kind that you have to read at your pace because it really hits home.  

Our losses are very different, but our grief is the same... we lost someone we love very much.  My heart goes out to you and I will keep you in prayers and meditations.  PM if you don't have my email or cell number.

 

Blessings,

I think one of the things that really got to me was that when I first came on here, I made a habit of visiting people when they were in the hospital due to wls related problems. My husband and I both made several visits together.  Even when he first became ill and I was searching for info, there was nothing. I am slowly learning family and close friends are the ones you can depend on. Cyber friends are mere words on a screen...

Our daughters, grandson and I put a Memorial Stone in his garden so we have a place to go that was his when we need it. I remember when you lost your son and thinking of you and your strength was one of the things that kept me from posting....Hugs and love to you!

Many of us don't post here anymore. Many are on Facebook, I am not. I haven't lost interest in the board, I haven't made the time to post. But there are many people on this board that I care deeply about, and text some from time to time. No one knows what you go through but you. Take all the time you need.
