      Your both in my thoughts and prayers. For many, myself included, not knowing is really the hardest part. Getting through that part together will make you both stronger and able to deal with whatever is to come.

        ok seriosuly guys...i should know better by now than to ask for this kinda thing because now im crying..lol god i feel stupid but at the same time extremely grateful. I want to thank each and every one of you individually for your thoughts and prayers. We went out and just had a fun night to try and get our minds off of things. I think that will be my thing this weekend is just try to keep her mind occupied. Seriously ok gotta go get a tissue...damn a grown man aint supposed to weep.

          from one my favorite movies:

          Mr. Lebowski: Are you surprised at my tears, sir?
          The Dude: [Smoking a joint] Dude, f'ing' A!
          Mr. Lebowski: Strong men also cry... strong men also cry.

            Yeah they are. Whoever told you otherwise was a fool.

              When it's my time to go, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my uncle did....... Not screaming in terror like his passengers

                According to my wife, an ER Nurse w/20 years in, false positives are
                common. It isn't anything to dismiss but the odds are likely to be
                better than you think.

                2 years ago I contracted a rare disease that went undiagnosed for 18
                months. Saw several specialists during that time, two of which
                expected cancer. There were some tough times while waiting for
                test results to come back. We had some conversations we didn't
                expect to have at that time. The possible impact on our three children
                was the most difficult part for me. It wasn't cancer, and once diagnosed
                we beat it and life went on.

                My wife was strong and upbeat during the whole time and it really helped.
                I encourage you to do the same. These are the moments that make
                love strong.

                The "big boys don't cry" thing is utter bullshit in these circumstances.
                This isn't a bad hair day ... it's a serious shock that is going to impact
                anyone in direct proportion to the size of their heart.

                My advice... shed the tears, take a breath, then gather your strength
                and be the man she needs you to be.

                Know that many kind thoughts and prayers support you in this.

                Sincerely,
                Greg

                  great post...........and all so true
                  Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people I killed because they were annoying......





                  I've been wrong lots of times.  Lots of times I've thought I was wrong only to find out that I was right in the beginning.

                      Hey guys not much of an update but I think mentally we are both doing much better. She goes for a "introduction" visit...whatever the hell that means...than they schedule a biopsy. So untill oct 27th looks like we will just have to sit and wait. Sorry for the long bump but I didnt want to start a whole new thread and have to explain anything so we can let it just sink back to the bottem and I will find it again and posts any updates as time goes by. Thank god for a cruise in 4 weeks. Gonna need it I think. Thanks again for everything you guys said. It really made that day a hell of a lot easier to deal with.

                            As are mine and my families. Lord never gives us something we can't handle.
