PDA

View Full Version : It's Probably Nothing

It's probably nothing, but two days ago my father went in for all kinds of tests. During the bone scan I was able to be in the room and see his skeleton on a screen. There was a huge white spot on the bone at the base of his back and then white spots all over his skeleton. He is having a lot of pain in that area. They didn't say anything, but I had a sneaking suspicion that is the cancer showing that has masticized (spelling?) in his bones. It didn't look good to me. I may be wrong though, but it makes sense that that would be the markers.

I just got home and there's an urgent message that they want to see my Dad ASAP. I keep saying it's probably nothing, but I have a sinking feeling this is pretty major as I sensed the urgency in the tone of the message. I called back and just received their voice mail. It is so hard to describe this sinking feeling I have, I wish they hadn't left that message as I may have to wait until tomorrow morning to find out more.

Thanks everyone for the entertainment you give me in these silly threads, they have been such a blessing in keeping me from sinking into depression. The silliness means I don't have to think too hard to throw stuff back at ya, and you have provided many avenues of laughter for me. You have no idea how much that helps. A break from reality takes the bite out of it.

We're always open for silliness, day or night, as you know, Debbie. It really sucks that you got the voice mail after a message like that. Here's hoping they call you back soon and that the news isn't as bad as you fear. :badday:

Oh, and also: :funface:
