I’m so sorry to read this update. I can’t imagine this news making the holidays bright, but you have the best plan there is. Spend time with those you love, and enjoy every moment.
We will say so many prayers. Your appointment will be here before you know it, and maybe there is something the doctor has that will slow this down and allow you to feel better again!

I hope that you are so re-charged by spending time with those who love you the most in the next few weeks, that by the time you head to Michigan, you're strong and the doctor will have a ton of great options for you.

You know, it isn't often that I have difficulty putting my thoughts into words, but the thought of your current feelings coming true hits me hard and I don't know what I can say that conveys enough. I have always admired you on this board. Your witty comments, your sense of humor, and the advice you give to people are things I have always enjoyed reading, and want to continue for many years to come. When my son had cancer, we were at the end of our treatment hope here in California. Nothing was working and the surgeon couldn't even look me in the eye after my son's last procedure because he knew that his cancer was spreading everywhere and that it could not be cut out. He told my ex, then appeared quite emotional and rushed out of the room, leaving my ex to tell me. My sister researched and found two Centers of Excellence for his particular type of cancer, one in Israel and the Mayo Clinic in Minnesota. We immediately booked him in to the Mayo Clinic and I have to say, I had the same fears you are dealing with right now. It is hard to find hope when one facility is out of things they can do for you. These facilities have earned reputations as Centers of Excellence for a good reason. They work with more cases of a specific cancer than anywhere else in the world and have developed treatments and methods that are cutting edge and amazingly successful. My son was 9 years old when we boarded that plane for Minnesota. He will turn 35 tomorrow, and is cancer free. Knowing how these facilities that have treated so many cases can turn things around for their patients, I am praying that Dr. Hammer will be able to do the same for you. Virginia, I will be thinking of you and hoping for the day that you can come and post that your cancer is taking a serious beat down at the U of Michigan. I have every reason to hope that your current feelings are wrong. As several others have said in their own ways, you, dear Virginia, are one very special and beloved refupea. Words can't do justice to all of the good you have brought to so many of us in so many ways via your participation here! You have my love and my most positive vibes. May Lexica's wonderful experience with her son's cancer outcome be awaiting you too! I wish you could get to Michigan tomorrow! In the meantime, I hope you have a love-filled holiday with your husband and dear sons. As another pea asked... is there anything that I/we can do for you??? If there is anything at all, please tell us what that is!!!
