Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2006Not a very happy Christmas - purr request please
I don't post much in here these days - with two little ones, I seldom have time. Also, things aren't too good at the mo and sometimes I struggle. However, today has been a stinkeroo. I had my long-awaited appointment with the endocrinologist, and I might as well not have bothered. All I wanted was some hope, and as far as she is concerned, there isn't anything she can do for me. Back to square one. That pales into insignificance, however, beside the news that my uncle has pancreatic cancer. And it's inoperable. He hasn't been able to swallow since July - liquids only - so he's already weak & frankly malnourished. They're going to sort out some chemo for him fast, but the chances aren't good. But they are not zero. He could recover. My aunt and uncle are the closest thing I ever had to parents. They are lovely, kind people. Please would you purr for them?

But they are not zero. He could recover. Mogget I'll send you as many purrs as people on this list have sent me over the last 3 months, which is tons! I can only say a friend of mine's sister was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and taken straight from the hospital to a hospice because she was too weak for surgery. She was then sent home to get her strength up for major surgery and at the moment (6 months or so later) she's still getting there and hopefully will be having her surgery in the next month or so. She's also on chemo and it seems to be working Lesley Slave of the Fabulous Furballs Purrs for your aunt and uncle mogget. And purrs and hugs for you, my dear, hope you feel a little bit better soon. >I don't post much in here these days - with two little ones, I seldom have >time.

Stories and pics at http://koti.welho.com/mkurten/ Pics at http://uk.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/frankiennikki/ and http://community.webshots.com/user/frankiennikki I am sorry, my aunt was just rediagnosed with pancreatic cancer this week, they give her 18 months, but the first time the chemo worked relatively well and she was comfortable relative to others I know who have had chemo, so there is hope and its not as miserable in the treatment area, I will pray for you also, Lee > I don't post much in here these days - with two little ones, I seldom > have time.

Also, things aren't too good at the mo and sometimes I [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > -- > Mogget, sad Massive, MASSSIVE Purrs, Mogget. I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle's diagnosis. I know how it feels to get that kind of news--like a building just fell on you. My mother was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer in 1991, although she was VERY lucky to have a rare, and operable case. She's still going strong almost 16 years later, and although she has to take pills to help her digest her meals, she'd be the first person to agree it's a small price to pay for not being dead. Cancer is bad news at any time of year, but especially hard now, and especially when it's someone so close to your heart. The girls are on purr patrol that chemo and treatment will help your uncle recover, that you will feel better, and that things won't look so dark, soon.

Please would you purr for them? I'm sorry you are having so many troubles right now. Purrs and prayers directed your way, and for your Uncle and Aunt. I don't know what your endocrinology issues are, but if you feel like you need someone to talk to about it, you are more than welcome to e-mail me, my addy is unmunged. Also, I have been been working for many years in an area that requires a lot of experience in pain management, including end-of-life situations. If it comes to that for your uncle, and if you are in any need of information for any decisions you and your family have to make, and options that exist, please don't hesitate to ask. I do not mind at all giving you a way to sound off or verify information that your are being given by hospitals, docs, etc. Best wishes for you and your family. --tension >I don't post much in here these days - with two little ones, I seldom >have time.

Please would you purr for them? I'm sorry about your bad news, and your uncle's bad news, too. A good friend of mine was also recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. It's a terrible disease - very deadly, with a dismal prognosis. So very sorry, Mogget. Purrs for you and your uncle and aunt. hugs, Christine > I don't post much in here these days - with two little ones, I seldom > have time.
