Well, it was all bad, worst type, and bad at that. This sucks. She is more worried about how everyone else will handle it. A year at the best with treatment. Thank you all for being there. Jim
 
so sorry to hear that, may the lord give you strength, as well as your wife, prayers sent

I am really sorry to hear this. I will be praying for both of you. Listen to what the doctors say and if it is too dark seek a second opinion, then a third and so on. Do Not Ever Give Up. Steven
 
Jim

So sorry man, keep the good energy within... If you have any chance to spend some money, spend it on a good holiday with her ie. south france etc... You two need positive energy and thought now. We hear all the time, even in the wost medical situations body can heal itself and positive attitude helps a lot I guess. I hope you and your wife peace and strength...

Jim,
Sincerely Sorry with the diagnosis. Suggestion that your wife's Doc contact Dr. Friedman at Duke University....Share information and get input.

I am no expert but I want to share with you 2 things
1. One of my dearest friend was diagnosed with Glioblastoma Stage 4....was told 6 +/- months max.....lived almost 6 years and almost 4 of those were not bad quality.
2. My stockbroker (and 30 year friend)'s wife, Cindy, diagnosed Glioblastoma stage 4 at the age of 42. given 30 days to live so get your affairs in order......She is still working part time and is still driving....perfect health?...no.....still a good lady and good wife...yes....and she is approx. 57 years old now.. and hasn't shown evidence of the tumor from 6 months after the original diagnosis until now......

I am nothing special but I lived with our friend and his wife as our best friends while he went from OK to Heaven.....
I swear the wife of my fishing buddy/stockbroker is a Miracle.
My e-mail address is jfraps@att.net.
 
Jim --

I'm wishing you and your wife all the best. You must each decide to survive. In your hearts, you must decide that no matter how bad it may get, you and your love will survive.

You are off to a good start. You recognize the reality of the situation. You have decided to face it. You have decided to face it together. Now each moment is precious and so much comes into focus.

Make small goals and move toward them. Then set more goals to achieve. Take each day and try to move forward. Keep your mind open to possibility--it may appear in unexpected ways.

A bad prognosis creates fear. Fear can motivate us. We must not let Fear paralyze us. Humor can help keep your mind limber--this is crucial.
Remember that a prognosis is little better than a guess, a weather forecast, an average. It is not real. Your wife must define reality; you can help.

Never underestimate the power of hope and love.

Stay in touch,

Jack
 
Jim Best of luck to both of you. Keep fighting this the best way you can and enjoy each other more and more every day you can. Good luck find a way to beat it. Doug

I am so sorry to hear this Jim. Please believe there is some higher purpose to all of this. We don't know why, but she is being called to it. God, in a sense, "needs" her. I will send you my prayers, smoke, and everything else in my power to help you both through this. Keep strong, my friend. Sometimes the human body amazes us in ways we can't comprehend. There is always room for hope and miracles. I experienced one yesterday myself. An "enlightening" experience you might say. Now, for some really odd reason I have myself a stuffed (toy) goldfish to remember it by.:confused::o:D It's calling to me now.... I named her... Epiphany.:D Re-awaken your "stillness of mind". Remember back when you were first born? Probably not, because that's when you first had it. It is pure peace, love, and joy. Animals have it too. That is why they don't "fear" dying like we do, they accept it. If only we could be more like the animals, we could know true "stillness of mind". In them there is no hate, malice, evil, fear, or need for "belief" in anything to be part of the greater purpose. Even in their last dying days, they are in a sense content. Not worrying or fearing, just accepting. That is Oneness with "God".
Take care, Randy.
