Hi, Linda,
Welcome to you. You've come to a really unusual place full of angels
walking
here in earth. I look forward to talking with you.
Love and Hugs,

>Hello everyone,
>
>My name is Linda George and I'm a new member of your cancer forum. Joicy
>Becker-Richards, my pastor and a cancer survivor, has told me about your
>group, and what a caring group you are. I also "know" Lillian from another
>e-mail group called "Faithtalk" that Joicy has set up. I've heard a lot
>about Lillian, and I can see what a big part she plays your forum. Hi,
>Lillian.
>
>Anyway, the reason I'm here is because my dad has been diagnosed with acute
>myelogenous leukemia several weeks ago. He is going to be admitted to the
>Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Florida this coming Wednesday. I am a very
>concerned and worried daughter who loves her dad more than anything. And I
>am so scared.
>
>I've done some research on this type of leukemia and I've learned a lot.
>I've also picked up some info on your forum re. chemotherapy and its
>effects and some herbal treatments, etc. that can help the immune system,
>etc. I will vigorously read whatever is suggested to help my dad and our
>family through this journey.
>
>The doctor said he had a 50-70% chance of remission at his age. He's 75.
>I'm just so worried about him getting through aggressive chemo - they said
>some patients don't make it through. I'm to the point where he's all I
>think about 24 hours a day. It's hard for me to concentrate on my job.
>
>I know I'm rambling, but I need to share with people who can relate. Any
>input would be appreciated. And, of course, your prayers. That's something
>I do almost every waking moment.
>
>I look forward to hearing from you.
