I'm sad to say that my bc is back recurrence in lungs, several nodules in both lungs. One nodule is on the right lower lobe and is about 4 cm.  Doc is sending me to have a ct biopsy on this one nodule.  There is a small mass on my liver.  I have had a uti for about 2 weeks or more.  I'm on my second prescription of antibiotics and it is not going away.  Is my system so weak that I am unable to fight this infection even with antibiotics?

Debbie, still trying to figure out if you've had these nodules/masses biopsied yet, and if you have the results? the results will help your doctor figure out what comes next... PJH

I go Monday @ 1:00 pm for the ct/biopsy  I asked my nurse if she could get and authorization for me to be seen at City of Hope, if that doesn't pan out UCLA Medical Center and my husband knows someone at Loma Linda Cancer Center who is a specialist in Lung disease-cancer.  My nurse said Loma Linda should be authorized right away.  I start Chemo on Tues. even if my oncologist doesn't have the results from the biopsy.  I have had a great amount of peace the last few days.  Only the peace God can give.  I will keep you updated when my results come back.  Thank you for your support.

Hold onto that peace, Debbie. I'm still hoping that the biopsy is negative - best of luck to you on this journey. PJH

Thank you Beth.  You are right prayer is very powerful.  My Support Group is at a Calvary Chapel in CA.  They all stood around me and layed hands on me Tuesday night.  I felt like there were angels hovering around me and ministering to me.  Had a dream on Sunday, that I was sleeping on a very fluffy white comforter in a space that was completely white and my clothes were white also.  I was at complete and utter peace in this dream, I did not want to wake up, because there was so much peace.  I told myself I don't want to die but this kind of peace can't be bought.  Just thought that was pretty special!  Just a glimpse of what heaven will be like.  No more worries, cares, fears just peace!!!!!

Innocent Debbie, You are so right. The dream you had was Beautiful. We will be with the Lord when it is our time to go. There is nothing more Important than this to me & I am sure to you as well. As the word says. Absent from the body, Present with the Lord. I do not want to go right now either. But I know when that time comes, I will be with my Lord.9 keep Looking up.) I two have had my church lay hands on me as well. We have a Good support system. You take care. Keep in touch.

Cindi, our thoughts and prayers are with you. I remember Debbie writing these questions - I seem to keep women who've had a recurrence close in my heart. I'm glad she's out of pain, and I know that someday you'll be together again... Peace - PJH
