When it rains it floods…and so too my life! Seeking help.

First my CT scan showed a mass in my lungs…then I went through detox. I was finally eating healthy after 3 years of eating crap. But the sudden change caused me to feel like s*#t for several weeks… I had dizziness and pressure in the back of my head which caused me to also have a MRI to make sure my cancer did not spread to my brain as well…Then the rain came and my house flooded (not the basement…I have none…but my house!) The same day I hear from my doctor that the MRI showed no tumor in the brain, but something looked strange that required me to get further testing, a bone scan of the brain…So now I’m thinking…when they found the tumor in my femur, they removed my leg…If they find a tumor in my skull, will they remove my head??? It turned out to be nothing so I have no fear of loosing my head, but with everything happening all at once I swear I am loosing my mind! My sense of humor is gone…I have lost joy in my life. I just bought a new home which I had to move into prematurely because of the flood…It’s a mess…and my life seems a mess. To top it all off I have a urinary tract infection that I cannot seem to get rid of and I’m scheduled for surgery in a little over two weeks to remove the tumor from my lung. Forgive me, but I’m having a pity party…I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired. I’m stressed out from the all that is involved in a new house, all the details and paperwork for the flooded house, worried about the new tumor and just plain old tired of my UTI. I want to laugh again and be happy just to be alive…

My request to all who read this is not to pity or sympathize…but to humor me…tell me a joke…make me laugh…make me believe in the power of laughter. It’s gotten me this far…hopefully it will take me much further. I need to laugh and feel joy again.

Thanks all…

Lorri

Then it sunk in ... :-() Hope this gives you a little smile... sending you a big hug! Vivian; ▶ Reply to This

Permalink Reply by Hopalong on September 30, 2008 at 6:51pm: Thanks...I'm smiling right now and I haven't smiled all day. I had a rough day at the Doctors...Found out that sarcoma's to the lung usually appear in the lower lobes...Mine is in the upper lobes...There's a possiblity that it is lung cancer (which would be a new cancer) and instead of just a resection of the tumor I might have to have an entire lobe removed...More stuff I didn't want to hear...but I came home and smiled because of you all!!! Thanks...Keep em' comin'
