Hi sparky.

Bless u sweetheart. I know just how you feel. A couple of months ago my big sis was diagnosed with having a very rare cancer in her neck. 3 weeks ago we found out it had spread. Nobody knows the prognosis yet and it horrible! Especially for her. The only thing you can do is be there to listen and do all the little jobs that seem to get lost.

You are right in that you need to be strong for her. A diagnosis of cancer is a devastating thing but it can bring you much closer, even if you dont think thats possible, so it does have a positive side (if that makes sense. Mr fibor fog decided to visit).

Please message me if you want to talk ok? Im always checking the site so it will not be too long before you receive a reply.

If i havent read your blog right then please forgive me but it might be good news. And god i hope it is!

My thoughts and prayers are with you sweetheart. Please let us know how your mum and you are

Love and gentle huggles

Ivd just read what time you blogged. Is it today sweetheart? Whenever it is, imagine me beside you holding your hand. You can draw any strength you need from me in order to be strong for your mum.

I forgot to say that both my mum and dad had heart attacks just before xmas. My mum was woken up by it at 6am and the dozy woman decided she was going to clean the flat from top to bottom before she rang for an ambulance! 5 hours later!

Im not sure that even now she realises she could have died in her sleep.

I felt ( and feel) exactly as you do now. I was absolutely frantic with worry. The concern for my mum has eased slightly but she ahs so many other health issues that i can never relax.

Im sorry if ive rambled on. Im trying to say that you do find strength from somewhere ( i dont know where tho). Im not exactly a believer in God but if the strength isnt already deep within you then it must come from outside. You will find it if and when you need it sweetheart. Im not saying things will be easy if its bad news but it might not be and thats what you need to hold on to. We as humans are practiced at imagining the worst but try not to sweetheart, ok? I know you dont know me but i promise ill be there holding your hand.

Thats the fantastic thing about this site. Fibro might have brought us together but i bet you didnt for a minute imagine that you would find so many friends as you hav on here. Whatever the outcome we are all here for you ok?

Strength, love and prayers go with you

ty chilli i will go in there today knowing that me and my mum have the support of all yous behind us, her appointment is for 3.30 today.

my sister moved back into my mums to help look after as she has rheumatoid athritis and fibro, my sister caught my mum throwing out a pair of pyjama bottoms that had blood on them my mum had a hystorectamy when she was in her 20s so she shouldnt be bleeding at all down there, it turns out this has been going on for nearly a year and she hasnt said anything to any of us about it, the doctor took 7 bottles of blood from her and thats the results we get back today and she has the gyn clinic on wednesday, i was so angry with her at first as she was the very same 1 that went crazy when she found out my gran had been hiding a lump on her breast and ended up it was breast cancer, and now she has done the exact same thing to us xx gentle hugs xx

tyvm for all your support chilli,her appointments for half three today ill go in there today knowing that u r all behind us giving us strength, my mum had a historectamy when she was in her 20s and we just found out she has been bleeding for nearly a year, so we made her go to docs, i hope the prognosis for ur sister isnt as bad as yous all might think it is my thoughts are with you and your family also, lots of love nad gentle hugs sent your way xx

I do hope things turn out well, I remember when I too thought "it had returned", however it was mister fibro that was causing me the pain and unbearable fatigue.

And although its not nice the fm, I know it is a much better diagnosis than the C returning so will say a small prayer today and light a candle in the hospital chapel where I now support others in their journey with cancer.

thoughts are with you today from all of us your fm family

Hi Sparky,

Just wanted to wish you and your Mum all the best for your appointment at 3.30 today. I've had cancer in the past (before I had fibro) it's always at the back of your mind whether it will come back or not. Hopefully the bleeding is for a different reason (cysts or polyps) which can be treated easily. My sister has just been through a similar thing to your Mum, hers turned out to be a polyp which was a great relief because like you we thought her cancer had come back....

Sending good luck wishes and fluffy hugs xx
