Up Date....new tumor

[Guest guest]

**********As you all know I have been battling a tumor in my right lower

lobe....everything was moving along nicely, when I woke up one morning and had a

mass (egg size) on my left Parotid gland. I had to take antibiotics (yes me

taking antibiotics) to make sure it wasn't an infection from my teeth.....It

wasn't, so they ordered a CATscan and I have a tumor in the parotid gland

with the first lymph node involved. I will be having surgery, as soon as they

can get the anesthesiologists that specializes in " high risk " lung patients.

They are concerned about putting me to sleep, as my lungs are not good.

********I'm bummed to say the least, but probably more pished, which helps

me keep fighting these battles.

The surgery will be either the end of next week or the following week. I

have been treating it with my Genie non-stop and some of the swelling has

reduced. There is no pain except when my ear hurts from time to time and I'm

having headaches that are very strange.

*******There are a few of you whom I speak on the telephone with quiet often

and they will have the hospital information. The doctor says depending on

the type of tumor will depend on how long I have to stay in the hospital. The

doctors have already agreed to consult with my alternative docs, which they

are doing prior to the surgery. Very comforting to say the least. I have a

friend who will be bringing my food, kefir and juicing to me daily, as I

won't eat hospital foods. I take my own water and the doctor has agreed to let

me take all my vitamins/herbals/ I take m One of my doctors has already sent

the list of the products I would be bringing with me. My attorney sent the

doctor a letter that if I need a VitC IV, they will consult with my surgeon

and it will be ordered. I'm feeling more comfortable about going in with all

doctors working together. The next battle is getting a room that is CHEMICAL

FREE....plus, the doctor has to write a letter about the non-toxic sheets, I

will be taking my own pillows and coverings. I'm sure they will want to

discharge me as soon as they can.....ROFL Nurses make horrible patients. I

have someone who will be house sitting and taking care of my pooch who will

freak out, but the gal staying with her she likes very much, so hopefully she

will not stop eating like she did the last time. Yes, she is a spoiled

pup....lol

*******If it isn't too much trouble can I ask for some prayers. This tumor

really has me worried. I'm fighting this like the ones before, but I'm

wearing down from all the battles....wish me luck....
