Thanks, I needed this! May I ask everyone a favor? Pray for me. I had a lymph node excised 6/22 and was told 7/9 that it was endometrial sarcoma. My PET was today. I have absolutely no symptoms - I feel fantastic - and we're now attempting to nail down the primary and see if/where it's gone. I'm not happy with how the docs and hospitals have handled this: I've seen three docs in two different hospital systems, had a CT 7/10 when I should have had the PET right away, and found out only because a relative is a pathologist at a major institution that the path report is too subjective. In fact, if it wasn't for my cousin I would have had a hysterectomy last Friday instead of a D&C and cystoscopy. The gyn onc wanted to do the surgery until I started questioning the path report, and he finally admitted that my uterus might not be the primary and the surgery, with its risks, would be for nothing. By the way, he's the best in the Ohio Valley. Ugh! So now we're waiting for the biopsy slides (from 6/20!) to be sent to the gyn onc’ hospital, at which point I'm demanding that they be sent to Harvard for the third opinion.

So, please pray? I'm asking for a clean PET: no cancer! I'm asking God for complete and total healing. Additionally, I started Gerson therapy the day I found out, 7/9. I'm not denying medical care, but I just have this unexplained feeling. I believe in alternative as well as traditional medicine. Since the docs still can't figure out my primary I'm thinking, what do I have to lose? We pray about this often and we believe He is leading us down that path. In fact, all delays in my diagnosis and care have come from the medical professionals and not me. We think this might be a sign.

Anyway, that's my story. I will pray for my FRiends here as well!

Prayers gladly said for you! (((HUGS)))

FWIW: my Mom was treated for Hodgkin's lymphoma when I was a baby, at what is now the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, NY. She lived for nearly fifty years after even their staff had nearly given up.

It was God's Will, through the intercession of Ste. Anne; St. Peregrine; and the Novena honoring the Birth of the Christ Child, begun on the Feast of St. Andrew. Never lose hope! One caveat: keep praying as you have, while seeking homeopathic assistance, to avoid hypnosis and other possible "new age" techniques. God bless you, guide you, give you a good report, and keep you close to Him always!
