Candy, I am shaking my head in dogged recognition of the frustration of having to be your own advocate. I hope you can get to the bottom of this or get answers that address your questions. So sorry for this shitty news.

Candy, so aggravating that you don’t know anymore about why you have shoulder pain but just have more serious *maybes* to now worry about. And as much as people say don’t google, how can we not look up terms being applied to us?? I hope you get mri approval soon. 3 years of pain is way too much.

I'm so sorry, Candy. I hate it when we fall through the cracks in the medical system. It's disgraceful that they ignored your pain for so long. I hope you get the help you deserve ASAP.
On the brighter side I had my breast ultrasound at 3:00 and my results at 4:00. Nothing abnormal found. Yay! The lump is either fat necrosis or just a weird bit of tissue. Who knows. Just glad I can breathe again.
Thanks for holding my hand while I waited. Here's hoping everyone else has has positive results as well.

Glad you found out there was not a cancer lump Trishyla.
Candy good luck getting an MRI on what seems to be pretty major stuff.
Runor still in your pocket as well until you know for sure. Sucks having to wait so long and be on edge.

Candy - it stinks when we fall through the cracks. One thing I’ve gleaned from sitting in this living room is that we are not passive when it comes to our medical care. It’s a shame that these so called experts in our health care need to be monitored by those of us without medical degrees.
Hubs has been admitted to our local rural hospital but will likely require transfer to the major medical center about 90 minutes away. He still has balance issues (he fell off the couch twice this am) and I’m grateful he’s someplace safe. Sure hope we can get some answers.

I lost my Deeohgee yesterday, he fell into sudden congestive heart failure and we had to put him down immediately. It was done at home under his favorite tree. I am beyond devastated I have no words. I can't even function. I've had him since 8 weeks old. My heart hurts. I hate death.

Mel, I am so sorry to hear about Deeohgee. I had a feeling that was what you were dealing with yesterday but did not want to ask just in case. I am hugging you and your family virtually. I am so very sorry for all of you.

I am so sorry about Deeohgee. It is awful when we lose our beloved pups. I know the feeling. You have had enough loss already. Big soft hugs to comfort. I am sorry that you are going through this heartache again. If the universe is kind Tag will be there to meet him

When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see;
If the sun should rise and find your eyes
All filled with tears for me.
I know how much you loved me
As much as I loved you,
And each time that you think of me,
I know you'll miss me too.
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart,
For every time you think of me,
I'm right here, in your heart.

goldens, thinking of you and your husband
booboo, I couldn't get through the poem without crying. I copied and saved it to a Word document and will read it later when I'm alone. Thank you for sharing that.

That poem is amazing. I am copying it to share with my daughter someday.

Mel, There are no words that will heal your heart right now. I am sorry for your loss. Pets so quickly become part of the family . Dogs love without judgement. They provide companionship, affection, and loyalty while asking for little in return. Keep your memories of Deeohgee and Tag close to your heart. Eventually those memories will make you laugh and smile.
Hugs and prayersfrom, Lynne

Mel, sorry for the loss of your fur baby.
May he run without discomfort with Tag. May you find comfort in all your loving memories. I know it takes time to get there. Sending you love and warm hugs.

ugh, one of my kids had some bad news - nothing super major from my perspective, more like a minor setback, but from their perspective it's very upsetting, kwim? we're all going to be stressed here for a while until they come to peace with it and the next steps
Why can't things just be easy for a bit?

I don’t know who wrote that poem....I can’t take credit. There was no name attached to it on the internet. I thought it was very sweet and am glad for those of you who liked it.

So sorry Mel. That's just too much loss in a short time.
Runor, what the hey? This is a rush?
My anxiety is increasing regarding my appointment tomorrow. This will be my final study appointment. I'm also hoping to also find out where we go from here. Not only was metastasis in both ovaries (high grade) but also cancer cells found in peritoneal fluid. No cancer found in additional biopsies.

Laurie, I read that poem a lot after Mom died in 2019. Used it to make myself cry as needed. Good poem.
