Well the Doctor's appt came and went. It  was all bad! The cancer is so advanced that treatment is NOT an option. They cannot say how long she has . He talked to her in front of my sister and I and held nothing back. They sent some of the biopsey to Pitt her in Pittsburgh to a well known patholist for more info and we will get those results Monday. So it was kinda like go home and die! My sister and I have been strong and have not shed one tear in front of her and she in return has NOT cried a tear in front of us. Today is the Worst for me. I have not been able to stop crying since my eyes opened at 5am. I am trying to get this out of my system before seeing her this am.

I pray none of you ever have to deal with this. I would not wish this on anyone. All I ask of you today is hug your loved ones and tell them you love them. You just never know what a day may bring!

Thank You My friends! I need you now more than ever!

PS My step daughter goes Monday for the MRI to see if her cancer has returned to leg and breast. She is only 27. Please add her to your prayer list. Her name is Missy.

Hugs and love from Pittsburgh

Janet, I'm sorry... this is a tough road. Please don't hold back from crying with Miss Emma though; sharing the pain will make it easier for all of you to get through this together. I hope you have a good hospice program in your area; they can work magic in getting families through these experiences. God Bless!

I am so sorry to hear all of this. Perhaps you all do need to "cry together." You are in a heartbreaking situation and all are suffering. And then to have Missy with major health problems too. I will keep all of you in my prayers that you will be surrounded by comforting angels at all times.

Janet B. - Saying I am sorry for what you and they are going through just does not seem enough. I hope and wish that your step daughter is cancer free. What a harsh thing to go through at such a young age. I will be thinking of you and yours often. Remember also to take care of yourself while going through this. It is much harder to be supportive and loving when you make yourself sick on top of everything else.
Nana to Seven Cutiepies Mar 9, 2007, 11:34am EST
How sad. You and yours are in my prayers daily.
Carol Lloyd Mar 9, 2007, 12:24pm EST

Shaunee C. Mar 9, 2007, 12:29pm EST
Janet you and you family are in my prayers. I sort of understand my grandmother is expected to day herself at anytime from lung and throart cancer. I will also pray for your daughter 27 is really young that is my little sister's age that sounds really scary I hope that everything turns out for the best.
