Bad News & Good News...

[sgorny]

First, the Bad News:

The pathology results came back - positive for cancer.

Then, the Good News:

It was small, localized, and removed with clear margins through surgery.

It's been an up and down (or down & up) kind of day.

Oh, honey *hugs*

Glad to hear everything is coming out alright.

*hugs*

Crikey! You scared the bejesus out of me!
So what type of follow care do they do in a case like this?

[s2097794.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

It all got removed?

[nomeremuggle.livejournal.com]

I don't know what to say that would be at all comforting, so just.. *hugs*

I know how tough that situation can be . . . for some encouragment, my mother was in the same position a while ago. Now 5 years later she is still healthy as a horse, and they have told her she has less chances of a reoccurance than an average person has of getting it a first time.

Just wanted to echo this. Same thing with my mom, two years ago. She's all cleared and healthy. Same thing you have to look forward too ::hugs::

*massive amounts of hugs* It'll be okay.

*hugs*

I'm relieved to hear they were able to remove it.

In the last year, both my parents have had cancer surgery (breast for mos-mom, colon for mos-dad). In both cases the cancer was detected rather early, and we're grateful for that.

*hugs you again*

I glad there was good news to counter the bad! Will there be follow-up to the surgery or are you finished?

Peace

*HUGE HUG*

I'm so glad they caught it and removed it all. *more hugs*

*cuddles*

[xoverau.livejournal.com]

Oh, good. Excellent. So sounds like nothing too bad now...?

[teary-eyed2.livejournal.com]

*empathetic hug* Sounds the same as my pathology report (done by a doctor with this name *smiles at the irony since I was doing my QaF faerie-rhymes on LJ at the time*) . I assume you'll go through the same next steps as I did but hopefully it will be a surreal/funny experience looking back on it. You can read my post about what happened to me if you can put up with my twisted sense of personal humor ;).

I'm glad to hear that it was removable. Everything will be alright.

*hugs hugs and more hugs*

[meimur.livejournal.com]

Oy, hopefully everything will get better from here on out....how's your voice doing lately? Getting any better/stronger?

[smartwomn1.livejournal.com]

1. Good that it was identified/found
2. Good that you were brave and had the surgery
3. Good that they did a good job in surgery
4. Good for you, learning a new technical skill

[chainer-morgana.livejournal.com]

I don't comment often, but I red that and...
I hope, and I see, it's not too bad...they'll remove it...
*hugs*

[severina2001.livejournal.com]

The good news far outweights the bad. You're gonna be fine. Believe it.

*hugs*

[twistinside82.livejournal.com]

So it's all gone? Are you done now, or is there follow-up of some kind? I'm glad that everything has gone well so far, and that they were able to catch it and remove it. *hugs*

[chiquis5784.livejournal.com]

That's scary, but i'm relieved to hear that it's been removed. *big hugs*

[darksylvia.livejournal.com]

Feeling like you dodged a bullet? I mean, obviously it sucks that it was cancerous, but YAY for it being out!

[on-axis.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. I'm so happy it got removed! *massive hugs*

[zosha2003.livejournal.com]

I'm glad to hear the good news - and you must focus all your positive energy on that. I know (1st hand) how that kind of bad news can feel; so I also know it's easier said than done to get positive about recovery. Take care of you -

[http://users.livejournal.com/_alicesprings/]

Take care. Thinking good thoughts for you :) Stay positive, you have good reason to be.

[mirror-mirror.livejournal.com]

How scary, but I'm very glad they got it!

[quinn222.livejournal.com]

Mixed news but the good is better than the bad. I'm so happy to hear that they got it all.

[dissident-dream.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

I'm glad that it was easy to remove, hope you get better soon and we'll all be thinking about you

[ljnewfan.livejournal.com]

*hugs*

[luceononuro.livejournal.com]

I'm hopeful for you sweetheart - in the end this is good news from bad news

[carolinecrane.livejournal.com]

Thank God they got it all. Take care of yourself and I hope you're feeling better soon, voice and all.

[slashpile.livejournal.com]

Oh, sweetie.

First of all, I can't believe you have the presence of mind to figure out colour-masking (or whatever you call it) while processing (or whatever you call it).

Second of all, aaaaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuugggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Third of all, *meow*. What the hell can you say? I don't know if it's relief that it's out, or just more shock.

Fourth of all, *fiercely sending ferociously concerned and protective fierceness down the line*. It's a superpower; what can I say? I'd rather I could teletransport flowers and chicken soup, but I wasn't consulted in the matter.

[littlemisstexas.livejournal.com]

I'm very, very glad to hear they were able to remove it all sweetie *huge hugs* You'll be in my heart and thoughts, continue to focus on the positive. *huge hugs again*

Call me today if you want to chat!

[eyesfullofhope.livejournal.com]

How scary! I'm so glad it was all removed honey.

[beloved4always.livejournal.com]

[jammer1027.livejournal.com]

(((HUGS))) I have no doubt that it won't be long until you're as "bad as new".

[crangirl39.livejournal.com]

I hope all all is well and you continue to get good news.

[queenydiva.livejournal.com]
