well family, my Oncology office called this morning and my CT Guided Lung Biopsy that was scheduled for tomorrow has been cancelled by the Radiologists, as too risky because the mass is surrounded by too many vessels. So, they couldn't get a biopsy with the Bronchoscopy on Oct 27th for the same reason, too dangerous of bleeding. Now, the Radiologists have reviewed the PET Scan, Bronchoscopy done and they say they can't do it safely either. Seems this mass is surrounded by many vessels so now my only option may be an invasive surgical procedure which I had 5 years ago. Was in hospital 5 days and half lung was removed. Took about 6-8 weeks for recovery from the surgery. My Oncologist is out of town until next week so will enjoy the time I have until I know what has to be done next. Keep me in those powerful Posse prayers as I think I'm in serious trouble. It's in God's hands so I turn it over to him. I need to get my act together and get things in order for what's to come. Love you all. My "2022" saying is: "Be Blessed each day we are given, tomorrow isn't promised" **Praying daily for all my Posse family here**
Oh Beth, so sorry to hear all this !!! You know we have your back and will be thinking and praying for you all the way... Between you and your doctors you will make the right decision. Try to enjoy Thanksgiving.. I know it will be hard but know that you are loved and we're right here with you if you need us. Love you !
Thank you! I knew this was very possible and very aware that after 5 years there is a high percentage rate of return. I've lost two HS friends that made it to 5 years then it came back with a vengeance, may they RIP. I've been blessed with so many years after so many times in bad situations medically and close to losing my life but God always saved me. It's in his hands and in his time. I'm ready when my time comes except getting all my affairs in order. We both know how important that is and that will be my priority in the next few weeks. I'm NOT giving up, I'll pray things work out for the best and remain positive regardless. Happy Thanksgiving!! My "2022" saying is: "Be Blessed each day we are given, tomorrow isn't promised" **Praying daily for all my Posse family here**
