Wow, this article really brings me back. Reminds me of the ,um lets just say, {younger|earlier} days and the {problems|troubles} some in the family had. Not to worry though at this age any memory is a good memory I’m told.

I’ll say a prayer for your husband. It is a very treatable condition. Thank God.

How devastating for you! My husband has a kidney transplant, an operation to move the piping around, another operation to stop bleeding caused by operation number two and a nephrectomy this year.

You have to remember to take care of yourself to. You can’t be strong for him if you’re running on empty. I know how unbelievable tough it is. I spent many nights bawling at drive through windows, but eventually you make it trough.

Your family will be in my thoughts.

First, I want you to know that you and your husband will be in my prayers! I am so sorry to hear about the cancer, and I know what you are going through. My father was diagnosed with small-cell lung cancer in the spring. It is the rarest and fastest-acting form of lung cancer with no cure. My father never even smoked so it was a shock for us when it was accidentally discovered during testing for diverticulitis. They noticed three tumors on his liver, so it had already started to spread. All the weight I had lost and all the progress I had made went right out the window! Before I knew it, I had regained 40 lbs and added 10 more. Comfort eating is a real problem for me. Hang in there and focus on being as healthy as you can – you are going to need all the strength you can muster, but don’t beat up on yourself during this difficult time. God bless you and your family!

I am keeping you both in my prayers. I have a hard time not stuffing my face when I am stressed, but riding my bike gives me relief without bad consequences.

Hope you find peace.

Laura, I’m sorry I misunderstood the first post. I will keep you in my prayers. You are so so young to have endured so much. Sharing your experience with others will encourage others. As your strength grows emotionally and physically and you share your story, so many people will be helped. God Bless you.

In regards to my husband, I noticed how the people seems like a family in the chemo room. His side effects haven’t been too bad yet. He was up most of last night. His legs were acting up and he had to keep walking around.

Stress can absolutely affect weight loss. My problem is that I can’t sleep! I’m up all night with thoughts running through my mind. Luckily there are some great herbal remedies for sleep!

chris, i just had the surgery on sept. 23rd. and i am 20 years old. haha, i didnt mean to come off like it had been 20 years since the surgery. the emotions are new and raw still.

same with my father. the weeks leading up to chemo was hard for him, but once in the room, with other patients undergoing the same treatment, and the great nurses, it was not as bad.
