- Dory65MemberJoarden, I'm sending you positive, healing thoughts and prayers - and a big gentle hug. I have found that in times of heightened anxiety, mindful breathing techniques like the 4-7-8 breathing technique can help calm the nervous system pretty quickly. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/324417 <3 It's weird, I know, but EFT Tapping also helps, in my experience https://www.healthline.com/health/eft-tapping#research <3

- SisterMemberIt's not over until it's over @Joarden I can understand how you're feeling having a child who needs you around for a good while yet, but you're still here. As the others have said, treatment has come a long way. Take care.
- TinksMemberThinking of you. Here’s where you might even surprise yourself with your inner strength to get through these awful days of waiting and not knowing. Those of us on here know what that is like. You can do this! Hang in there. Lots of love xx Tinks.
- JoardenMemberunfortunately @ddon , and Tinks doctor didn't sound positive.. She said blood tests and biopsy next to see if its secondary to breast cancer, or just on its own..that will determine treatment..Thank you for the kind words, they really do help..up until scans, prognosis was great..Praying they can find a treatment plan to keep me around.. Our son is only 12..:-((..Take care, wishing you both a happy ending on your journey..
