Today is the big day... FI gets his CT scan results. He is scheduled to see the doctor at 4:45 PM. So I didn't really sleep last night and now I am sick to my stomach. PLEASE keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best. FI says that he has a bad feeling, which scares the life out of me.

Oh Hollie...it's a little after 6 and my thoughts are with you. I can't imagine how you must feel....I think we are all anxious to know the results (which are going to be just fine!!) I give you lots and lots of credit because what you are going through takes a lot of courage. I have my thoughts and prayers with you and am hoping that all works out for the best. Hang in there and I hope that your stomach was okay. As all of the other girls say, I would try to spend some time with John tonight....I'm sure just hugging him will make a worlds a difference, especially with the anxiety you both had today!! Just enjoy each others company. Hope to hear from you soon!!

Just came back on hoping you had some good news for us, Hollie! You know you have family here on LIW!! We all care about the both of you!!!

Re: It's that time... need lots of support

Ok... the results are in...

GOOD NEWS!!! The CT scan is exactly the same for the past 6 months and his bloodwork is normal!!! The cancer has not returned!!!

He will now need follow up every 3months. We have officially gotten through the first milestone unscathed!! YEAH!!!

I didn't hear from him until 5:40 PM. The doctor ran late. I left work early only to get stuck in an hour's worth of traffic on the belt. I still feel nauseous but definitely relieved.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your support, concern and love. It really does mean so much to me to know that I have people that I can lean on for support. I may not know all of you face to face but I feel lucky to have you in my life. You are all amazing women and I can't thank you enough. A year ago I would never have believed that we would be going through this. But knowing that I have people to rely on makes it easier. Next time I see you all I am going to hug each and every one of you!

Thanks again ladies. You are the best.
