Today I finally had my appointment with my gastroenterology specialist. Now, I have an appointment for a biopsy on Nov. 1. I am dreading, dreading, dreading it. I've never been under before, never had an IV, nothing. I'm terrified. I almost cried when he told me. And, to make matters worse, I need a colonoscopy after that. He wanted to do ( Read more... )

loves, loves, loves to you!

I'll be there soon, and then I can give you a big hug!

And yes, hide under the covers and love on the dog. Doggies are good for making you feel better, just by being squeezable.

I'm so sorry, sweetie; and I'm thinking about you and sending you love and strength.

I'm sorry that you're going to have to go through that, and even sorrier for you that you have all this time in between to sit and worry about it.

I don't want to sound preachy and philosophical and motherly, but here I go...

It's really amazing how much the human body and psyche can take, especially when it's someone like you who is an absolute pillar of strength and composure (do not 'hrmph' at this part). You WILL make it through this, and you WILL come out on the other end a better person. It might suck, and it might even hurt, but you will make it through, no doubt, and all will be well very soon after.

You don't deserve all this sickness, and it isn't fair. But not just anyone could handle this.

Ok - enough of that - I have too much of my mothe in me not to lay it out like that. This is a virtual ((hug)) from me - if you can even remember me by this point since we haven't seen each other in so long. :) Still love you though. Keep seeking solace in doggie fur...animals help us remember not to take things so seriously

Thank you, so much, for your kind words. It really made my day to hear them, and I think I *needed* to hear that right about now, so thank you again.

I love you, too, even though it's been forever since we've seen each other, which, for real, we should really rectify. And my doggie has been great comfort...I only wish I could take him to the doctor with me tomorrow, but somehow, I don't think that would go over very well...:)
