well the bone biopsy test results came in tonite.
it is mastised breast cancer growing in her lower spine.
there is no cure...
there is only treatment for pain and maby some extra time.. .
her doctor is shocked that on the strongest stuff that was avabile
to block estrogen hormone
that the cancer has as much HER+ trigered recepters as it does and
that it managed to grow at all while she was on the strongest stuff she could take to nutrlise the estrogen...
he said they can slow the one down but that another could show in as little as 6 mos some place else if any other cells got away before the masatomy...
so it is pain control and time buying ,,,
they dont even know how long or how much they can buy...
morphine and deladon and another diff hormone killer , 4 weeks of redation bombardment of it and a bone med infusion every 4 weeks so her spine dont fracture at the cancer site and parilise her...

it seems that there is something that God wants...other then what we want
and it is hard to not question why... and harder still to wate...

grand canyon... she wont talk on that yet let alone let me make plans that seemed to be when there was still a lot more hope then now..

all she said is she needs to excerise in a pool like the doc said to keep her bones strong as possable and not stress the to breaking point...
we dont know if she will be here long enught for us to save for her trip to the big ditch or not ...
so if you see me dumping knives you know it was not good news...
well my friends i have things to think on ...
Karen and i thank you for your prayers and smoke...
pray for a cure to this desease with us...
your friends Dave and Karen
 
I never know what to say in situations like this ,and i';ve been in them myself.

Lots of prayers and best wishes my friend,stay strong and we will pray for her well being!
 
My Dear Friend Dave,

I have only recently gotten to "know" you thru my new found interest in collecting Buck knives and my now daily trips to this forum. I dont know your wife Karen and most likely never will. Somehow, however, your message of this personal crisis in your lives has resonated throughout this electronic miracle that we call the Internet. Your news has so touched me that as I sit here and type, I want so much to reach out to you both with some sort of comfort in this dark hour. I will pray for you both individually and together. Again, as I said once before, NEVER give up hope! God has the plans for each of us and He only reveals as much as we need or can handle. As I reflect on today, all the problems I currently face suddenly seem so insignificant. God bless you both.

Dave and Karen,

I don't know you, and I'm sorry that I don't. You seem like wonderful people. Your posts seem calm, and that is surprising. My wife and I will pray for your wife and you.

Yes, sometimes it's hard to know what God wants, but he's running the show. Trust in Him. I have personally seen Him work miracles in front of me when it comes to doctors and medicine. Some stuff that made the hair stand up on the back of my neck because I know He was in the room. Things like cancer was there last week and not there this week. Trust God.

I'm sorry again. I don't know what it's like to be in your shoes so all I can offer is an open ear if you need one. I am available via email, or the phone or anything. Seriously!

May God Bless and keep you both in His arms and at least keep her pain away.
 
I am very sorry to hear of your misfortune. You both must be very strong to be so calm. I've been married for nearly 14 years and in a similar circumstance, I would be a basket case. You will be in our thoughts and prayers.
Bungwrench said this more eloquently than I, so I borrowed from him.
"May God Bless and keep you both in His arms and at least keep her pain away."
 
I hope all the best for you and your wife. Things do happen for a reason but sometimes the reasons can't be seen for awhile.
 
Our continued prayers from us as well Dave & Karen. Seems like life is what happens when we are busy making other plans. God has the master plan, I think that we just do not understand when this happens.
 
Dave,
You and Karen are now in our prayer circle. Don't give up hope. You got a whole group of folks here that care.

Your shipmate,
Mike
 
Dave,
May you find great peace in knowing that God loves you and Karen greatly. I trust you will find His presence to be a comfort as you walk down this rocky road. Both of you will remain in my thoughts and prayers.
