minijeff Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 So riding high on my news of schooling now gets crashed to the ground. My middle child, the middle girl of my triplets had to have a CT scan on thursday to check out what seemed to be a random calcification spotted during a chest xray. Well the Dr phoned today, Saturday so that right there does not lend itself to being good news. They feel the mass is cancer....I dont know what to think...her and her sisters are 2 months from being 5 years old...this isnt right...

handsomedevil Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Don't panic until you find out for sure, Jeff. Hopefully the first guess is wrong. If not, we're here for you, brother... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthRaider Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Oh gosh, I'm real sorry to hear that Jeff. Hope your daughter turns out okay, and I hope the rest of your family stays well too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 Yes, speaking as someone whose mother survived breast cancer in the 80's, it can be done. Remain positive and do whatever you need to to keep your daughters from seeing how scared you are. Try to find a way to not let your mind drift into the negative, as hard as that may sound. Your family needs you to be a rock right now. If you need to vent and let off frustrations/fears, we're here for you as handsomedevil said.

dj87 Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 this is a horrible thing to happen to anyone of any age, i'm very sorry to hear it i'm not a praying man, but i may well give it a go for you and your family.

blacksun1520 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Man Jeff, I don't know what to say, being the father of 5 & 7 year old girls I can only imagine how you must feel right now. My thoughts are with you and your family, and I hope your little girl gets healthy fast. BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar17 Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Like everyone else has said, hang in there. Not all cancers are the same -- if it even turns out to be that in the end. (Doctors are wrong every day.) Stay positive, because kids (even as young as yours) can sense bad vibes & get all stressed out or worried. You guys are in my thoughts as well. Let us know how things develop. *hugs* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I just can't even imagine what you & you're family are going through but trust me when I say that you & your family will get through this . Keep your faith in the good things in life............ it is genuinely the only way forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
