The title seems fitting to my life lately! As you know or may not know my husband had a very invasive surgery April 4th to remove a rare form of cancer he was diagnosed with. Surgery went great and he is home and been recovering very well. Last week
we got another phone call that the cancer cells had spread/leaked into the soft tissue around where the mass and lymph nodes were. Because the cancer is so rare all the doctors and surgeons had to have a meeting to decide what would be the next step and best treatment. Yesterday, we had an appointment and the verdict is to do fournrounds of chemo and radiation and the same time. Due to the cancer being so rare, theybare going to treat it like small cell lung cancer because from the research they do have the neuroendocrine carcinoma cancer of the thymus mimics the small cell lung cancer. Next week Oscar goes for MRI and PET scans to see if it has spread anywhere else, then ifneverything looksnokay he will start treatment the following week. Sonwith all the things going on in my life All things are precious to me.

Since I've been out of town I'm just now catching up on blogs. I wanted to leave you some encouragement. I have to admit, your posts are so hard to read because they make all kinds of emotions well up in me. I remember what it feels like to be in your shoes. I just hope you can look at how far Nick & I have come and KNOW that some day, some way- you will look up and be on the other side of this horrible disease. You may not think that now, but I promise you that you will get through this and like someone told me which is cheesy, but true, "rise up like the phoenix." Life will be so much more fulfilling and happier than it ever was before once all this is behind you because you will GET it. You know how fragile life is and what's important. I'm just so sorry you're having to deal with all of this in the meantime.
I'm glad there is a plan in place. Just keep taking it one day at a time. I am praying for you and Oscar. Your strength, his health and his doctors.
BIG HUGS to you!!!!
Would you email me your address? I promise I won't come stalk you or anything, but I'd like to send you something.
Thanks for your comment! I just saw that. We must have been reading each other's blogs at the same time =)
Praying for y'all. Wow. I can't imagine how scary that must be. God is in control. Praying for total healing and remission!!
