Poor Happy Harry! I would love to come but as it is i am going to fish creek tomorrow to do a party even though i am sick! Al is taking the girls to Coopers B'day party tomorrow!
Glad to hear channy is home now.
Um with me yeah your right i havent been my self for a while now and untill the doctor mentioned it i hadnt even put it together that i might be sick although i have had cronic head aches and my body aches and sore throat for at least a month now. I even went and had my eyes checked and got new glasses coz of hte head aches so it will be interesting to see if it ends up being GF/CF - I had put it down to stress!
With my sister - I never really went in to it, christmas eve she went back to the doctors for the millionth time about her constant sinus problems and FINALLY her doctor took her seriously and listened to everything she was saying and sent her for a head MRI - she also mentioned to the dr that she could feel a hole in her head when she puts her hair up in a pony tail - her finger kind of falls into it and it weeps from time to time so he had a look and took a biopsy of it but told her it was definatley cancer, just needed to work out what type.
anyway so time goes by and we finally get the MRI results which show she has a massive tumor in her sinus (cancer) and some extra floating bone in there and loads of exra soft tissue and needs to go see and ENT - down the track finally get in with the ENT - he says she needs surgery and this will invole a full rebuild of her sinus and nose as one side is fully obstucted- he doesnt think the tumor is going to end up being cancer that will need further treatment other than being removed (good news) but thta he wont know for sure untill he gets in there of course - now she is put on a list and is waiting for the surgery......
Hole in the head - turns out it is skin cancer and it has eaten in to her skull (not good) and now they are waiting to get her in with a plastic surgeon for that to be operated on as she is going to lose a faily big chunk of scalp and skull! So again, on waiting lists!
So thats it in a nut shell and she is only 27 with a 7yo daughter and way to young to be dealing with this ****e! She should be right though, I just wish the surgery was over and done with already.
I was going to put my study off so i could be there for her but then i got thinking that if i put it off i may never end up doing it so I am going to try my absolute hardest to kick some asssss while i do it.
