Oh the anxiety...how do I make it stop??

Ok...today I'm having friggin anxiety. I probably brought it on myself by searching the internet and reading about other people with Sarcoma and I get myself into a tizzy. I have to remember that not all Sarcoma is the same. Nine years ago when I was dx the dr never even mentioned the lung yet I've been reading so many stories of it going there with different types. I'm trying to get my focus back and tell myself that even though it's back, it's no where else except the one spot in my sinus. I h… Continue

Today has been ok..even good!

I am reaching pretty far inside me to find this strength, but I'm doing it. My surgery is May 6th and aside from the new hair do that the neurosurgeon is going to give me, I'm not too scared about the surgery( I should say 'yet'..we'll talk the night before!!). I will be upset being away from little guys for a few days ;-( Plan "A" for the surgery is what we have out fingers crossed for as it's less invasive and plan "B". They are going to start with plan "A". I guess I won't know until I wake u… Continue

Hey Gail,
First off CONGRATS! I was very pumped to see the awesome news, and im sorry that I didnt really get the chance to get back to you sooner. I dont mind you asking at all. It was a very quick process for me because once a sign developed that clued me in that something was very wrong(double vision), I wouldnt take no for an answer and was in surgery in Portland Maine within a month. The surgeon I had was very well respected and highly reccomended. The surgery itself only took about 4 hours, pretty much i have a scar streching from the center of my forhead- then arks up around by my hair and ends down by my ear (I like to go with a shark bite ;-P ) um- woke up with a drain coming out of my head, plates and screws holding my skull back together and only spent 2 nights in the hospital. The surgery was very successful and they removed all they could. Double vision went away almost immediately and the bad news did not come until about 2 weeks later with the follow up visit and the diagnosis back from mass general. If there's anything else you'd like to know please feel free.

Hey Gail,
Hows everything going? I didnt mean to come off like i dont appreciate being able to converse with people about this. Its just an odd feeling. More like- all the docs say 'get back to your normal life' I know my life has changed and it wont be the same, but at the same time- its almost like the less i acknowlege things- the more i can get back to 'normal' so to speak. I dunno- just an early morning rant before work i guess.

Hey- thanks for the message- your right- it does help to know somone else out there does have a similar case. I mean- obviously the doctors tell me that they've treated other cases like mine, but it does help to be able to associate a face with it. I'm still kind of torn about this end of stuff though, as to getting more involved in a community like this- or to just go with an attitude of okay- this is something that i went through and will have to monitor, but that its nothing that should at all come in to defining me at all. (ive got a little too much french and irish in my genes) so i think im leaning towards the stubborn end of smelling the roses every day and leaving it at that...(sorry for the rant- just figured you might understand where im coming from)
