Hi Sandi, I am just speechless at what I have read , totally stunned. I am profoundly sorry for and upset with what I am reading has happened with you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

This is just absolutely unbelieveable and what can one say? For this to occur to anybody, and certainly someone like you is devastating and I hope and pray that you will fight this battle and win.

I am sickened on your behalf over that doctor and the neglect shown towards you, when it would have been no skin off his hide to have gotten you those tests earlier.....but what is done is done and how typical that this senario is repeated with others also. I could tear my hair out when I read things like this after some medical professionals have actually harmed patients by neglect!! And totally unnecessary.

You come across to me as a gem of a person, a strong person and someone that we cannot afford to lose in this world. Probably one of the loveliest people one could hope to meet. Please keep fighting and know that everybody here supports you and is behind you in this and wants your recovery from this.

I hope that you'll get the chance to get those other dental issues dealt with, but it is very hard on you having to try and balance all of this, when you have so many things going on at once.

Thank you so much for all the help and kindness you've shown others (myself included) on here, regardless of your own suffering, you never failed to put out a feeler to other people and offer continued support and advice. I just do not want to believe this is even so, but evidentally it is. I'm half shaking my head here at this.

At any rate, I'll pray and hope that you will come through this awful diagnosis and that the prognosis, even if it doesn't "look good" will be turned around and that someone up there is going to allow you to come through and out of this and not have you to Himself anytime soon. So keep fighting and keep up your good eating and plan for more dental clean up and the prayers will be behind you.

Take care!!!!!

Love Bex.
