Possible Recurrence over ImplantWHAT?!?! Michelle I am praying it is scar tissue! Of course you have to wait thru the d*&m weekend to get your test. I really believe it is scar tissue from your rads. I saw my onc today and we were just discussing (because my left side is feeling uncomfortable and a little different) how rads can cause scaring and changes in the tissue many, many years after tx. I will be praying..... BIG HUGS! Wendy |

Active topicsI miss the active topics section where you could just click on it and see the lastest topics from all of the different threads. I also like seeing who the original poster was of the thread. I've been coming here since 2003 and have seen many changes. But I really don't like this one. I must say i always prefer this website because the discussion boards were so easy to manage and browse thru. Now it looks just like all the others that i find difficult to browse thru and find who or what i am looking for. I don't post much anymore but it was always nice to be able to easily check in with the active topic section. I would've like to have seen spell check with all the new additions/changes Wendy

Morning PrayerMerry Christmas Everyone!!
Just wanted to report my good news--My bone scan was negative!!!! Praise the LORD! Thank you all for the prayers--the last couple days I have struggled to keep the fear away and give this all to God. Knowing that I had the prayers of others really helped! I pray you all have a beautiful Christmas and experience the pure peace and joy of Christ the King. Through Him all things are possible! May God Bless each of you. Much Love--Wendy |

Morning PrayerLadies--
Once again I'm asking for a few extra prayers! I'm going in this morning for a bone scan because of the pain I have been having in my back. My husband and I have decided to keep this underwraps from my family etc so my usual prayer warriers don't know about this. Thank you thankyou! I believe in the power of prayer! You are all always in my prayers. God Bless--Wendy |

Morning PrayerHi all--
Asking for a few extra special prayers today. I am having my ovaries removed and the permanent implants placed from my bilateral masts. My surgery is at 2:30 EST they think I'll be under for 2 1/2- 3 hours. I know God will see me through this as he has through all my other treatments and surgeries but I feel kind of numb and I'm having trouble focusing my prayers so if you would please pray for me I know that would help. Also my friend Deb is finally having her biopsy today. They are 97% it is not cancer but only the biopsy will really tell. Please remember her in your prayers as well. Thanks my sisters--you are all a blessing to me and all the gals at bc.org are always in my prayers. May God Bless you and keep you. Wendy |

Evening PrayerHi ladies--
Please pray for my friend Deb. She found a lump and is going in for mammo and ultrasound this week. I just had my last rads tx friday and was so excited to finally be done with tx. Now this--it really brought back all the worry and concerns and fear that I had 8 months ago. I am so sad that she has to experience any of it. Oh how I hate this #@%$ disease. God Bless--Wendy |

Evening PrayerHI all--
Just wanted to thank you for your prayers last week when I had my labs drawn to check tumor markers etc. Everything looked good. PRAISE THE LORD! I saw my onc. yesterday and we reviewed everything I left out of there with tamox rx another new thing to look forward to (NOT). Oh well we do what we gotta do. Thanks again ladies. God Bless you all! Wendy |
