I didn't find your post above t...Hi, Charlcie,<br /><br />I didn't find your post above to be a rant at all. It seems like perfectly sensible concerns and questions. I wish I knew why some people have to endure such hardships while others seem to suffer only a few scrapes and bruises.<br /><br />I was once told that God knows what we are capable of and never gives us more than we can bear. That is comforting to a certain extent, I guess, but it also raises more questions. <br /><br />I wish you happiness and strength, and the courage to face each day with a smile. (Your smile is beautiful). <br /><br />In regards to those people who mean well when they tell you things like "it's the best cancer to have," I hope they stay oblivious but keep their comments to themselves.<br /><br />My daughter's friend is undergoing chemotherapy for bone cancer. This is her second bout with cancer, and it doesn't look good for her future. It's possible she may lose her leg even if they get the cancer.<br /><br />Nothing about cancer is fair, absolutely nothing. Don't feel bad for how you feel. Nobody has a right to judge, not even those who have gone through it themselves, for everyone is different and every situation unique.<br /><br />We are praying for you. My pastor knows you by name now. I don't even have to tell him anymore.<br /><br />God bless you and hang in there.<br /><br />KimKIM MOSERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13062042893092621375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5717436549810485918.post-69778078776809305942012-06-12T18:36:38.363-04:002012-06-12T18:36:38.363-04:00Ah, Momma Mindy...thanks!

Quick, someone read this and find the answers.<br /><br />Am also debating a second opinion with endo as they've been "watching" my third set of tumors for three years now. I'm getting more tired and achy, but also older. <br /><br />I'm glad you rant.

Ah, the ol' "best cancer to have" phrase again. I wrote a post about that a few years ago. You can read it here: http://charlcie.blogspot.com/2009/10/on-my-soapbox-about-best-cancer-to-have.html. It kinda makes me crazy! <br /><br />Thanks for the information about the UCLA study. I am going to check into that further.<br /><br />I very much hope that yours turns out to be benign.

I am 73 and have had hyperthyroidism for about a year, several nodules were discovered and I received one treatment of radiation, 25 militaries, which I thought would get rid of the nodules plus the thyroid. I"ve been on levothyroxine and my blood levels are finally normal. My endo said he wast worried about cancer because of my blood work. A follow up scan showed either new nodules or the old ones had grown, which surprised me. Still my blood work didn't worry the endo but he suggested a biopsy which came back suspicious and greater than 50% chance of cancer. I was blindsided. I'm waiting for an appointment with a surgeon at UCSF. I was told it was "the best cancer to have" by a few people, including one friend who is a surgeon. I was very calm about this until I found your blog and then started to get worried. I've done a lot of internet searching and last night found a research article done by UCLA checking age, gender and mortality. Your age, even with recurrences, is in your favor. According to this study, my age, if I do have cancer, is against me. Google Thyroid Nodules and Cancer in the Elderly by Jerome Hershman, M.D. (I don't have a link) for the article. It didn't give me comfort but it might you.<br /><br />I wish you so much luck and good health in your future. I will follow your blog as I feel connected to you now. I hope in my case it turns out to be benign, and in your case, you are rid of this problem soon and can return to your beautiful family with no worries. My very best wishes.
