Never do tomorrow what you can put off till the day after tomorrow!

Epson

Thanks for all the good wishes, I just wish it didn't happen, but they told me there was a good chance of more tumors, so soon?  It might just be scar tissue, the doctors office will call Monday to make an appointment.

That means another cystascope, wee, fun, fun and if I'm real good, another pee bag.  I know I don't have it that bad, but I hate my life right now.

Next, I have to find out what is wrong with my shoulder, I can hardly type or drive, when it rains it pours.  Life is one big smorgasbord of crap sandwiches ;D

Epson, Darn!!!! I hope and pray that it is scar tissue that is causing the issues. This waiting business is also really hard on you I know. There are a lot of new drugs out there to fight the tumors with which is good. The bad thing is that being sick gets really old. Seems like you have had your fair share and then some. Hang in there cause we need you to keep us on our toes!!IRish ;D

Epson, sorry to hear about the latest "crap sandwich" that is on your plate.  You're (we're) from OH . . we're tough old birds -  slap some mayo on that sandwich and add some fritos . . . - hang in there buddy, you've got us all routin for ya!

Seriously, I know the waiting is hard . . try and divert your thoughts to something else for the weekend while you wait until Monday . . . ummm, I was going to say go out and try out your new snow blower, but nah . . it's too cold outside, stay indoors.  I know . . just monitor the boards today and send your wonderful comments out into cyberspace.   ;D

From one buckeye to another . . take care Epson.

Life is one big smorgasbord of crap sandwiches

Too funny, Epson!  I used to work for an attorney that suffered from severe halitosis.  I changed firms and someone asked me where I'd worked previously.  When I told him he said "Oh, that's the guy whose breath smells like he eats crap sandwiches for lunch!"  I couldn't help but think of him when I read your post  ;D

It's rather difficult to make lemonade out of crap sandwiches, but know that we're pulling for you!

Epson

Lana,

That story made me LOL and I need something to laugh about right now.

Epson

Well, the doctors office called me today and Monday will be the day I find out what's going on inside me, I can hardly wait :-\

BonusMom

Epson,
I know the hours until Monday's appt. will pass at a snail's pace, but I'm so glad you don't have to wait any longer than Monday.  Try to keep busy this weekend in an effort to distract yourself. Know that we'll all be supporting you and wishing you nothing but the best.

Epson

Lana,

Good idea if it wasn't 2 below outside,  I'm getting cabin fever and so is the dog.  I try to find little projects to keep my mind off of Monday, but now I'm just ambivalent about the whole thing.  I just wish we didn't have out of town guests coming, don't want to put a damper on anything.

Patze

Oh my sharp tooth friend and fellow critter of the night,

I'm so sorry to hear that the new year is not boding well, but I sure will keep the digits crossed (also in my thoughts and prayers) and hope that your doctor will give you some good news for a change!  You sure are do for some soon!

Please so keep us updated, okay?

Take care my friend -

Awwww Sh*t, Epson-

I'm so sorry to hear there's more bad news to start your new year.  And this is probably going to be the longest weekend of your life.  I wish there was something I could do to make it go quicker.  I will put in some time with in prayer on your behalf, it's what I do for people I care about.

Hang in there Epson, Tracy
