Beth, You are always in my prayers and I'm so sorry that the surgery didn't work. I pray that this one will. Please listen to the doctors and follow what they say. I don't know what else you can do, except put it in Gods hands and know that we're in your corner. I will say special prayers for you tomorrow morning. I understand the pain you're in. Tomorrow I'm going off of Home Care and I'm scared as I am not much better. The nurse will come and draw blood and that will be it unless they okay me to stay on it. The doctor is going to try to help me out. I went to two doctors today, and now my arms won't work as it's difficult getting in and out of the car. I am fighting the pain though. I don't see where it does much good to go when it's only making things worse. This morning when my aid was here, she asked me on a scale of 1 to 10 how much pain I was in. Well, sitting in the wheel chair, I didn't have much. I told her a five. When she went to give me a shower, she said that she could tell that the pain increased a lot. Kidding me, she said I'll bet it feels like a 15 right now, and it did. I believe those questions are stupid, but then that's my opinion.
Beth I'll be with you in every way I can to help you through this ordeal that you have to go through. I just want and hope to see some improvement for you. I know that it will be difficult for you for a while, but take good care of yourself and don't worry about writing until you're up to it. Love & Hugs...Prayers, and 18's too.

I too will be saying special prayers for him, and all the others here who are struggling. I wanted to let everyone know that my back surgery of Feb. 3rd, did fail, so they are redoing the surgery tomorrow morning. I will be down for 6 weeks recovering. I am not sure when I will be able to get back on line as sitting is impossible. But I will be thinking about everyone...and sending positive thoughts. I would ask that anyone who believes in prayer, send one up for me tomorrow morning..between 7 and noon..when my surgery will be going on...then post....I believe it all helps! Still of sprycel, will go back on right after surgery...as soon as possible....as it's been way too long and my symtoms are back...;( life,,,,,is hard sometimes..but we will get through with the support of our friends and family... 18's to all my cml family... Thinking of all of you and sending you love. Beth -----Original Message----- From: C.M.

He has had two emergency surgeries in the past 2 days and they don't think that they've fixed anything. He says he's black and blue and in need of a lot of rest. I didn't let you all know about this as I wasn't sure he wanted me to. I've decided, on my own, that he needs us all praying for him and so I'm asking everyone to please say prayers that he can come thought this okay. I don't know if he'll answer your e-mails right now and I've told him that I don't expect him to answer mine. He's just worn out from everything, plus they're still trying to give him his dialysis 3 times a week. He has a terrific family who are all there to celebrate Passover. I feel we're his family too, so please say your prayers for this wonderful person, who has helped so many of us. He really needs us right now. I know that we all need help now and then but we have supported one another through a lot of things, and this is one more thing that we have to do for one of us. He has become like a brother to me and a very good friend. I feel so lucky to have him in my life, and am sure most of you feel the same way. Talk to you all soon, Many hugs, prayers, and 18's Millie -- -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
