Thanks Julie. I am praying for you and your mom and hope her results come out ok. I agree there are so many positive stories I've read and continue to read also. It gives me hope that my mom will make it. My sister and I were talking tonight about asking the doctor about a prognosis but we don't want to have my mom be in the room. Maybe we will call her before the appt. to see if she can speak with us after the appt. by phone or something. I want her to be upfront with us on one hand but I don't want my Mom to hear anything negative because I'm scared that she may then start to get depressed and not want to fight this. But I know if the doctor gives us bad news, my mom will see it all over our faces so I just don't know what to do. God, I hate this damn disease! It was always one of my worst fears and I can't believe it has happened to one of the most precious people in my life. There's times when I cry uncontrollably.....I can't seem to stop. But theres other times when I know she will be strong as always and fight and I have to be strong with her. How do people affected by this stay so positive when there is so much to fear? I guess right now I can say thank God for drugs because without them I would be a nervous wreck 10 times worse than I am now. Anyway, let me get my negative self off to bed and dream positive dreams. Take care everybody...
