Actually, one day is something. But don't get your hopes up too high (sorry, didn't mean to be a downer). Find happiness in whatever you can; kids are a GREAT thing to find happiness in! Don't miss the trees b/c of the forest! Make some time to get some sleep, that's very important ;)

Just a quick note to say hi! How are things? Are they getting better? Hope all is well.

Thanks! It hasn't been too bad these last few days - guess I'm getting used to it - oh my! Can't wait until Thursday so we can get surgery scheduled. Had to go and buy more fat pants today so I have something to wear! Glad you are doing better. All the best, Trudie

Just a quick note to say hi! My F$%@^&ing work fired me! That is just mean and rude..... after all the stress I just went through with the pain and the trouble of getting diagnosed and of having surgery they fire me and the boss hires her daughter in law. How mean... I am royally pissed.

Pain and swelling is worse. I'm just waiting to get into the gyno on the 15th so we can arrange to get rid of these things! I'm so tired of waiting!

Just a quick note to say hi! well, I take it back, I just brushed my teeth to get into bed and I gargled and spit out some nice bright red blood again from the back of my throat.. lovely..... If it doesnt go away soon, I will call my doctor Goodnite hon... Lisa

I finally stopped spitting up blood from the trachea tube down my throat. It hurts alot to get in and out of bed, I try to get up and walk around for a while several times a day. My left side hurts real bad, the othr side doesnt hurt at all.. Probably cause he removed everything on the right side and pulled them out thru the left incision. who knows.... Well, were still alive thank God. I got to talk to my 4 yr old son on the phone today... He's staying with Grandma right now.... take it easy girl Im going to use the bathroom and try to read until I fall asleep. Lisa

Just a quick note to say hi! How are you holding up? Hows the pain? Seems to me if Doc opened up the the same scar it would hurt like hell to move around EVEN MORE SO But hey, look on the bright side, Ive lost 7 lbs and we should be ready for summer!!! Take it easy Lisa

Glad your surgery went well and that you are home. Hope everything else is smooth sailing for you! Trudie

Congratulations! We made it through. I have one incisionthat hurts alot more than the other two, and I was spitting up blood from the trach tube, its seems to be getting lighter and less blood now. Thank GOd, the tube probably really irritated my throat!!! They took all 3 tumors out and the 2 small complex cysts and the appendix. Its funny how the left side incision is killing me, but the right side is where most of the stuff was. My sister is a RN she said they probably just cut through more muscle there on accident or something. It burns sometimes... Take it easy.. Lisa Glad youre home resting

Just a quick note to say hi! Are you alright? Are you back home yet? I just got home alittle while ago... Surgery sucks.. Talk about pain... Ive got 3 incisions and they alll hurt, but one is just killing me and extremely painful and I am spitting up blood from the trachea tube. OMG I hopoe this gets better fast. I hope this is all normal stuff. Let me know how you are ASAP......... Lisa

Just a quick note to say hi! I have not been on this site for that long BUT my first day a read a really good log let me try to find it and I will get right back to you -K

You're in my thoughts all the time, but especially today. If you cant sleep try going to wayra.net There is music there that is very calming to the soul.. You can play quite a few of the songs from your computer. Sometimes at nite I put it on my computer to calm me down. The music is beautiful beyond description.... I hope if you check in tonite at some un godly hour you can try it and maybe it will help to calm you..... Lisa

Just a quick note to say hi! How's it going? Did yesterday prove to be a productive day? Are you going to have the surgery as planned? Hope so. Hope you are feeling better.

Just a quick note to say hi! How did your appt. go today? I hope well.

Wishing you the best of luck. I hope everything goes well today. Lots of hugs. I'm sure you'll do fine. Keep your chin up. Let me know how it went.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.everything will be ok.hang in there

Just wanted to let you know I can relate. If you ever want to talk, you know where to find me!!!!! I have my presurgery on Friday, they just take blood and urine and ask questions and give instructions... MY god how big is your cyst? My doc is doing a laparoscopy because although I have 3 dermoid tumors and 2 complex cyst, the largest one is 5.3 cm so I guess that is going to fit through the laparoscopy.... IDK He is removing the whole right ovary... IDK he said laparoscopy, also, dermoid tumors dont really burst that much, I mean they could, but they are pretty solid. AND GROSS!! click on the image button on GOOGLE and type in ovarian dermoids you'll see how gross they are!!! I hope you are doing well, too!!!!!

Thank you for everything! For writing me back and all!!! My husband and my daughter are both being horrible about this whole situation, because I pretty much waited on them hand and foot and now I cant, I am getting yelled at because the house is a mess and dinner isnt cooked and laundry isnt done.... and the trash isnt taken out... etc etc My daughter yells at me because I wont drive her around to all the places she wants to go to, and because I ve been harping her to clean up after herself. Its been absolutley awful. I am actually thinking on leaving him, because he even said he could find sex from some who would want him if I cant give it to him. You never see a persons colors until a crisis hits........ SO I am so grateful to have an internet buddy
