Healing thoughts for Everydaymatters

[pennyk]

Longtime member Everydaymatters has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer. Below is a portion of her email to me that I am posting with her permission

I have lung cancer. I had a biopsy yesterday to determine what type it is. If it is one type, they might be able to remove it. If it is another type, I will be on chemo the rest of my life, however long that might be. Either way, my train days are pretty much done.

I hate giving up my train riding days, but it us what it is.

Please join me in sending warm and healing thoughts to Betty.

Betty, you've been my friend in posts and messages -- I know you deserve the best, as in complete recovery. Life isn't always fair, but I sure hope it is this time. I'll be thinking of you, and wishing the best for you.

Dear Betty, Claudia and I wish you all the best. You will put up the good fight and beat this.

Betty is now home from the hospital after having a portion of a lung removed and undergoing heart and lung rehab.  She is still hurting and does not have a lot of stamina, BUT she is cancer free. 

Please join me in sending Betty our best wishes and for a speedy recovery now that the worst is behind her.   :wub:

Hooray for "cancer free"!

 

[AmtrakBlue]

Yay! Get stronger Betty

That’s great Betty! I hope you’re back to Normal very soon!

 

[cpotisch]

As was said, many congratulations on the “cancer free” part of this! Get well soon!
