BHollenegg DIAMOND JEDI MASTER Member Info Status: offline Joined: Aug 2007 Gender: Male Posts: 1,700 Reputation: 242 [ Cool | Not Cool ] Contact Icons The Results..Thank You All « Thread Started Today at 6:46pm » -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I arrived at the hospital for the scans at 6:30 pm. There were five medical personnel waiting when I walked in. They had a serious and solemn demeanor as I introduced myself. My first thought, “This does not look too promising.” Then the thoughts, prayers, and well wishes I read earlier from you reminded me I am not alone, that there are those of you who have family, friends, and you yourself, who are ill, or were ill, yet you took the time to show your support, at the right moment, with the right words, and with the right attitude. No way can one lose when surrounded by winners, winners with class. I was at Peace no matter what the outcome. I felt I was on a rotisserie grill as one of the doctors meticulously basted me with a gel, tenderly spreading the gel while positioning the scanner pod and instructing, “Hold your breath...click click, breathe normal. Turn over, hold your breath, click click, breathe normal, turn to the side….this went on for 20 minutes. The rest of the medical staff focused their attention on the dancing images on the display. The growths turned out to be cysts. I am okay. The medical staff was just as pleased as I was because we all get to go home. The medical staff was fantastic. They were professional from start to finish. I stepped outside the hospital, feeling a strong urge to live life to the fullest. Then a strong urge to eat to the fullest took control of my senses. I had to fast all day for the tests and now it is payback time. I had a craving for roast chicken, meticulously basted, tenderly turned over and over, and cooked slowly using a rotisserie. I held my breath for a few seconds, then placed my order, click click, “That will be 10.35 GBP” ($20.70)…WHAT! This is highway robbery!… breathe normal...breathe normal. I thought, “Yes, I have been condition…conditioned to accept whatever is dished out. (Thank you Mr. Maheu) Again, thank you for the encouragement and support you have given me, as well as, many others, many times. Please take a few moments and say a prayer to those in need at the moment. It does work…I know. You deserve only the best because you are the best. Thank you! May God Bless You and Life Robert Hollenegg HJRS

Please also pray for lulu's Father who is in care of doctor's at the moment, and her Mother who is going in for biopsy. The added stress of worry by her Father over her Mother isn't good.
Thanking everyone for their prayers as it is comforting to know many of us are thinking of them and praying for them, for the best outcomes and care.

If you remember Coreton or Swordfish (Mike)... please say a prayer for him.
They recently discovered he had tumor on his brain stem. It is about 2cm at this time, they are doing another MRI on Friday to see if it is any further down the spinal column etc.
He was with many of us in Yahoo Room and in PalTalk, did excellent DD. Please say prayer for Mike.
If you'd like to drop a line... contact Mike at:

Update on Coreton/Swordfish (Mike)
Had good news on Friday. a second set of MRIs showed the tumor to be in a better place than was thought (if that is possible). I will be having surgery on Tuesday Oct 14Th to hopefully remove what looks to be a non malignant tumor at the base of my brain stem. Mike
please continue the prayers

Update on Mike Brown (a/k/a Coreton/Swordfish) Just the best news... Thank you all for your prayers
I would like to thank you all for your prayers and support over the past couple of weeks. I believe that they have led to the outcome which was desired by all. The tumor which turned out to be right on the intersection of my Brain stem and Spinal cord was only connected by a few blood veins and appears to have been removed completely. At this time it appears to be Benign and no other treatment is necessary. The Dr. will watch the area with MRIs for any changes. If anything changes I will try to keep you all informed. Please pass along to others as my address book is not kept very orderly and I am, sure i have missed a few. Mike

Also, very special prayer to one of our members in the GV. His wife's kidneys have stopped working... and currently on prednisone to see if it will help... only other alternative right now is leaning toward permanent dialysis (spelling). She's not a candidate to receive kidney's from anyone due to previous stem cell treatments years back, effecting her immune system.
They return back to doctors mid November... so please pray that the current treatment will be successful.

Update on Little Caroline:
November 11, 2008
Here's a quick update for Team Caroline. The preliminery news was not exactly what we had hoped for. Dr. Harrison (Onc.) reported to us that Caroline's tumor shrunk a little since the last MRI in August. We had hoped it would be gone by now. Dr. Harrison spoke to a Rhabdomyosarcoma specialist at Sloan Kettering in NYC and Caroline's MRI and CT scans have been sent to Mass. General for her Dr.'s up there to review. Dr. Harrison will be meeting with the tumor board tomorrow and he would like to do a PET scan which could show if the tumor contains live or dead cancer cells.
Needless to say, we are nervous. Caroline is in week 30 of her 43 week treatment. This tumor is stubborn! We need all the help we can get to free Caroline from this cancer. More news as we get it.
Kevin
Prayers will continue for Caroline
