Default I could really use some positive thoughts and prayers....

I really thought that it would eventually get easier but it has not.

It's been 18 months since my husband was diagnosed with Cancer. Thank God they were able to remove the entire tumor.

But due to the rarity of his cancer the oncologist requires a full body PET/CT scan every six months to check for any signs of cancer.

Today is his scan.

It would normally be a really hard day for me because the anxiety (or scan-xiety) just overwhelms me. but tack on that ELijah has apparently given up sleep for good, I am just exhausted. he was up crying from midnight to three am.

So my ability to cope is just gone and I'm really anxious about this scan.

I'd appreciate any good thoughts or prayers you could throw my husband's way. We'll get the results at his oncology appt on thursday.

I'll be praying for you today.

Cancer is hard. My mom has to go in ever 6 months for scans as well and there is always anxiety surrounding it.

Everything is so much harder to deal with on no sleep. I'll pray for you to be filled with peace today and for your husband's scan to go well and good news to be received on Thursday.

Monica's right--cancer is hard no matter how deep your involvement or how near/far the healing is. My mom had it. Praying for you and your husband today, Alisa.

hugs to you!
just remember the scan is a tool they use to keep him in the best health possible. You should be more worried if they didnt do it.

He got out of the scan around 12:15. Now we're in the waiting period before we get the results on thursday.

I hate the waiting, it so truly sucks.

You've been in my thoughts all day. As you know, my dad has a similar form of cancer and it's been about a year since he was diagnosed. His PET scans are every 3 months and I know well the anxiety that goes along with it. And then there's the wait -- it's enough to make a person go crazy. Lots of hugs to you!
