OK - I need everyones prayers once again - My mom just started really feeling better after the lung surgery she had done in January - Able to breathe much better - Then she went for a colonoscopy and they found pre-cancerous cells - not good - but not really really bad - Then she went for a follow up check up and they discovered a tumor in her kidney - They can not biopsy as they feel if it is cancerous it will only speed up the spreading of the cancer - Because the tumor is so large they are removing the entire kidney - Anyone have any experience with this? God I need to quit smoking soon - Please pray for her to make it thru all this - The thought of loosing her is more then I can handle even thinking about!!!!!

Reanie - I opened this thread today and though I don't know you, I immediately felt a desire to reach out to you, because my mom also had lung cancer and so this is near and dear to me. My heart and thoughts are with you and I wish you all the stength in the world to get through each day. I hope that with all the medical advances available and the love and support of you and your family that your mother will continue to be a suvivor and that you may enjoy and treasure each day together.

*hugs*

Reanie - I just saw this thread today for the first time. More prayers and healing thoughts are coming to you and your mother.

Cancer is such a frightening disease - but amazing strides are being made and medical science is incredible. The most important thing, after prayers, is a positive attitude. I just had this discussion with my daughter - her father (my ex) was just diagnosed with small cell lung cancer. The doctors are talking about treatments - and referals to a top university hospital with clinical trials. Her half brother is planning the funeral - . Sheesh!

Hold your mother close - say and do everything you can together! I'm sending positive thoughts, prayers, and hugs!

Mom went back to the specialist and they found 2 things - one - she has a kidney stone in her right kidney that they have to break up so she can pass it - they have to do thus first before they work on the kidney with the tumor or she could go into total kidney failure - They als o found out that due to location of tumor they can not remove only a part of her kidney so they wnt to freeze tumor first to see how that works - Anyone familiar with this technique???

 

[Michelemarie]

Reanie, I am not familiar with that technique but will definately pray for your mom and for you. Hugs to you honey.
