Bleeping Spot

8/31/2016

18 Comments

 
Well, I had my suspicions, and I was right. Spot is still there, up from his 3.5 mm to a 6. So, we have a request in for a thoracic surgical consult. That is literally all I know right now. Wait; that's not all I know. I know that I appreciate all the kind thoughts, words, and prayers. And I know I am exceedingly blessed with an amazing network of people. You're amazing. Catch you in a little while.

Love,
Barb, Joe, Anna, and Laura

Well, crap (edited as this is a family friendly site). Sorry to hear that you must fight again, but you are one strong mother (see what I did there?) and you will kick that spot where it counts. Hang in there!!!

Well, shoot! Not the news you wanted to hear, I know, but know that you are being lifted up to God in prayer here in Ohio. Sending you lots of spot-kicking hugs from afar.

Barb, I'm sorry to here this. Seems that you are Laissez Faire about the whole situation. Its good mentally, but need to get onto it ASAP, and I'm sure your doing that. Say hi to Joe, and thanks for the wonderful tour of the best Cattle Ranch in the US.
Please get well ... The alternative is a drag.
Love to you ... If I can say that, and get well soon.
Steve

Barb, I remember in high school you paraded around football games with your WIO sign. That is how I would mark the spot.

All our best and prayers,

    On Dec. 5, 2014, I was diagnosed with rectal cancer. And that's where we start. If you're here for the first time, you'll have to read from the bottom (no pun intended!) up. Go to Dec 2014 and scroll to the bottom of the page...
