Need a lot of prayers
 

High everyone, haven't been around for awhile but still keep checking.
I need prayers, I have been diagnosed with LUNG CANCER.

Seeing the surgeon this Thursday to make a date for surgery. They are planning to take out the right upper lobe of the lung. I am so scared. I am not a youngster anymore and I don't know how the MS is going to react to this.

My family have been great supporters, but the fear is so great. There are days when I am doing good, my trust in the Lord my God is helping me.

Please keep me in your prayers.

Oh, Jappy! I am so very sorry to hear this. You will definitely be in my prayers.

I know you must be terrified as anyone would be hearing this news. I know you have lots going on right now but if you can please keep us updated. We all care very much for you. :hug:

Oh Joyce, I'm so sorry to hear this. Nasty dang cancer.:(. You are always in my
daily prayers, but now I will be dbl timing. Life really does suck sometimes huh.:mad:

I will be praying for a safe and completely successful operation. Please let me
know if there is anything else I can do, to make this trip a bit easier for you.
So glad your Family will be there for you.

God bless you and hold you safe, Joyce.:grouphug:

Dear Jappy,

I'm saying a prayer for you right now. :hug: I hope your MS stays calm throughout your surgery and treatment! :grouphug:

I'm praying for you too

I am so sorry Jappy, I will be in prayer for you, your whole team and family. I hope your neuro knows this is happening so they can be on standby

Hi Jappy,

I'm sure most of your fellow MS'ers took a deep breath when they read your cancer post

You've struggled and fought with MS for several years so you've proven how strong you are. We will be beside you all the way. So I hope you know you will have all of us in your corner, ready to share a hug, a smile, an encouraging word in this next fight.

Think of us as your little angel helpers on your shoulder. That way you'll know someone is thinking about you every time you see an angel. We are here for you...

Jappy!:( I'm so sorry to hear about what you are now going through. You've certainly had a rough time as of late. I will definitely keep you in my prayers. Please keep us updated.:hug::hug:

Hi Jappy,

So sorry to hear your news! I am on another subgroup (CRPS) but I saw this post as I scrolled by. My mother has MS so I understand about surgeries and exacerbation. I will be praying for you too. It's always worth telling anaesthesia and everyone else about the MS in case they can do anything to minimize repercussions. 900 mg neurontin is recommended pre-op to stave off chronic pain and might help keep the nerves more calm in general.

Sending Healing Love,

dear joyce,

i'm so sorry to hear this news. i know how frightening it is as i got a breast Ca dx some yrs ago and needed surgery. i've had about 6 surgeries and was scared of having a relapse but it never happened.

please try to take one thing and one day at a time. i'm sending calming and healing prayers your way. and, giving you a big hug. please keep us posted.:hug:

Adding my prayers. I am so sorry that you have to go through this. Hoping you have a lot of support and comfort from family and friends.

Praying for you, Jappy, and trusting your faith in the Lord will carry you through this trying time. As if the ms isn't enough......life sure doesn't seem fair at times. How did your appointment with the surgeon go today? Please keep us up-dated.

Thanks everyone for your prayers and support.

The surgery will be on Fri. March 20th. I have to go this coming Tues. for all pre-admission tests and talk with the anesthesia dr.

The surgeon explained today what is to be done and also all the what ifs.
Surgery can be 2-6 hrs. depending on what she has to do to cut out the lobe.
Also some lymph nodes.

I understand that they have to tell you everything, but I wish I didn't know now as much as I do. Understand they are going to put a tube in me to drain
and that part is the most painful having it in me they say.

Please keep me in your prayers.

Jappy :Thank you:

I had cancer surgery in another area and had a tube for draining. To be honest; just all seemed part of the process of post surgery healing; didn't give any special thought to it. Maybe just as well no one had mentioned it beforehand.

Many prayers coming your way,
