Hi Jody - I'm another "Judy" from Canada. It is very
devastating when your child becomes ill - you want to
take it from them and go through it yourself. We
never want to see our children ill or having problems,
but that's life and they learn to deal with it in
their own way. Sometimes I think we, as mothers, hurt
more than they do.
With all the drugs for CML he will "fit" one of them
and I'm sure he will be fine. Take some really deep
breaths and try and relax a little. I'm a great
worrier and I sure don't follow my own advice but I'm
learning as I get older (I think). I was diagnosed
6.5 years ago and my family was more upset than I was
because I think it really didn't hit me.
You will find great advice and comfort with the
wonderful people in this group and please, never think
any question is "stupid" - we're here to help where we
can and to comfort and console you and your son.
Annie has a son who was diagnosed a few years ago at
the age of 22 or 23 I think it was. He's doing well
now, I believe.
Do all the research you can - you're probably living
on the computer now getting all the information you
can. We all have learned we have to be our own
advocates and the better prepared with information,
the better off you are.
Well, I've rambled on enough - you and your son are in
my thoughts and prayers and remember, we're here for
you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Hugs to you and your son,
Judy P.
Hugs,
Judy P. in Calgary
