Glam, what a wonderful thank you to your husband. I too have a wonderful man who is seeing me through this journey . I met him when I was only 16 and we have been married for 47 years. Like your hubby he is the most precious thing on earth.

Thank you for the kind words and encouragement, I to wish you the best of luck!

Thank you for your answer. My therapist said he prefers to talk directly with my oncologist surgeon. I lived in Chile for 2 years and months, but had to leave cuz my cancer diagnosis (. Hope you are doing good. and thanks again!

Hi Glam,
Congratulations! I just read your remarkable story and it so blessed my heart! You really have been thru a horrible battle ( and your husband) but I see that God has brought you thru and that you are in remission! Praise His Holy Name! You will be an inspiration to a lot of people on this website and I thank God that you shared your story. We can survive as long as we don't give up and trust and hold on to God and all His miracles! God puts us all here for a purpose and that is to share our story and to be here for others while they travel down there journey. God bless you and your family.

Glam with your permission, I will say prayers for you and your husband

Hi Glam,
Congratulations for beating Stage IV and making it to remission. Good for you! Best wishes.

Hi Glam. thanks so much for your response. You are right, we have to own this thing ourselves. I was good about that last time, I suppose I am still in the "overwhelmed and devastated" phase and forgotten how bolshie and controlling I was last time round with this. I am not sure if you got my first response to you and Peroll - still find my way around this amazing site with you wonderful people. But thanks you so much and all the best to you too. I shall be praying for you too. you are wonderful to have the energy to help others like you are doing in the midst of your own fight.
Love and hugs xxx

You are absolutely amazing and inspirational. I read your story and you have gone through so much in such a short period of time and still with a beautiful smile. God definitely has a reason for you to be here and it may be to inspire others like what you have done for me. I have just been diagnosed with Vulvar Squamous Cell In Situ and am going to have a Partial Vulvectomy on November 7th. I'm scarred, nervous but determined. No further plans made until the results are back. Thank You so much for your story.

Hi Glam. I'd really be interested in hearing about the lead up to before they found your diagnostic. What where the sign's? If any , were you tired etc, pain , problems eating or with digesting etc! I'd just be interessted if it does'nt bother you or if you can! I had a few tale tale factors leading up to my problems as I was a very sporty person and lots of thing going wrong! Went back to the Dr's many times here in France where I am living at the moment but always got sent home with just muscle decontracors until that famous day - Big blood hemoraging as the head of my high grade adenoumus poylp decided to explode!((( Guess I would'nt be here today if it hadd'nt!!! Anyway just to give you the idea and really, really would be interested in hearing from you on this stuff. With hind sight did you realise there was something wrong etc???? Cheers the wee Scottish lasssie merci

Tahnk you so much Glam for explaining a bit all the Braf stuff etc!! I am a bit new to all this but thanks so much. I was in shock when as a sporty young (in my late 30's) Drs mentioned the C word!!! I was dumb founded!!! How about yourself? I am very interested in hearing all about your story! I am taking time to catch up on stories info etc!! from the wee Scottish one!! Merci

Muchas gracias por la respuesta, buena respuesta!

I'm sending you best "THISTLE" power and best wishes!!! fae the wee Scot!

You give me hope for myself and others. Thank you.

Good Morning Glam, just read your story amazing god is so good. God Bless you & your husband. There is always hope

Glam you saw my favorite man of all time Andrea Bocelli..Oh my goodness. I tell my husband that if I ever had the chance to go with Andrea I would do it and he would just have to understand..When I first saw him with pavoratti in a concert i knew he was special and that he would become famous. I love him. I just love him..O.K. thats enough I am having bad thoughts now of me and Andrea...AHHHHH..The fantasy ..

Read your story-so glad you're doing so well.Inspirational...

Hi Glam... what a nice post you wrote to me, thank you!
I am feeling stronger, I'm glad it shows. You and all the "What Nexters" helped me so much get to this point. Take good care,Zoe

Thank-you

Hi Glam,
try and watch the webinar I posted for the bonnie j. because its about all cancers really. Take this article from WJS and ask your Dr. to tell you how can you get this information for your tumor. You should be able to send via DHL or Fed Ex.

I really like your input. I accidently hit flag on one of your responses. Sorry about that. Keep your positives coming. Thank you

Hi Glam... Thank you so,so much for your long reply and your heartfelt encouragement. You made me feel better and a little less stressed about my surgery.It's always good to hear from someone who has been there. I have always been such a baby about sickness and hospitals,I still can't believe this has happened to me. I am amazed at your strength and attitude.You have been through so much and stay so positive and so ready to jump in and help anyone who needs you. You did help me and I really appreciate it.
I wish you the best of luck with all you're going through. I will be praying for you and your husband. You are an angel,a very brave angel. Zoe

ask Jesus what to do!! to much chemo can be a bad thing to do. Jesus has a plan for you. It will go his way only!!!

Hi Glam...you're so right, I don't need this extra stress. I am going to call tomorrow for sure. Thanks for your prayers,I'll post the results as soon as I get them. On my way to bed and to pray for you and all us "What Nexters " Goodnight and thanks, Zoe

Hi Glam....thank you so much for your reply,I need all the information I can get. I am having a very hard time dealing with this whole thing,crying more and more as the 16th gets closer. Why did you have this done,biopsy? what were the results ? Would you say that the drain tube was the worst part? How painful was the tube,could you still move around ,walk and go to the bathroom or was it too painful? I hope you don't mind all my questions,I'm just sooo scared. I'm happy to hear it was not too bad for you and your recovery was fast.I pray my experience is as good as yours. Thank you for your prayers,Glam. I pray for you too. I wish the best for you. Zoe

How did you make out with your scan on 8/12/13? Thinking of you and hoping all went well...

Glam,
I hope all goes well with your treatment. My treatment has stopped as of last Friday due to low white cell count. I have to go in for bloodwork on Monday to see where the count is, then if it is good they will start radiation again. I may have asked before, I don't remember .... did you have radiation? How long will you be on chemo? I ask God to bless you every night. I hope side effects are not too severe I know how bad they can be. Have you lost weight due to treatment? How is your husband doing? I hope you both are well. Talk with you soon.

Hi Glam how are you and husband feeling?

Thanks for the website info about the exercise challenge and will check it out. I know the fatigue will last a while and guess its just frustrating sometimes. Grrrrrr. Be well!!!
