Need some positive vibes for my son

Hi

As some of the old timers know, my youngest son, Michael, has had a lot of health issues in recent years. He has fibromyalgia, Acrocyanosis and some bowel problems. He hasn't talked to  me much about  his health problems recently, other than when he gets in a flare. However, today he told me he is going for a full body scan on Friday, as his recent endoscopies were 'inconclusive' and they need to see if there are any cancers 'hiding'.  Oh, and they believe his liver has become damaged from his meds.Needless to say, I was very shocked, and gutted for him.
So, please send him some positive vibes, and any prayers will be much appreciated.

Michael is just 31 and has two small children.

Hi Kathy - positive vibes sent your way.

Life simply is not fair.

I hope the full body scan does not show up any hidden anythings!

My oldest son is slightly older than Michael - but not much and know I felt bad when he developed Crohn's Disease. You are facing worse right now. Will keep you in my thoughts.

Keep us posted.

Take care - Scottie x x

Kathyx - I've been thinking of you and Michael today.  By now, he has already had the procedure done.

I know how hard it is for us to sit and wait for test results, it seems to magnify when it's one of our loved ones, especially our children.

I hope Michael gets some good news.

Hang in there, mum.  Keeping you both in my prayers.

Hugs,
Bucky
