Lots of prayers coming your way, Kirsten. Of course, I pray it isn't cancer, but if it is, please remain confident that there is much to be done about it.

Dear Kirsten,

I hope that your surgery goes smoothly and the result is what you are hoping for.

Many of us here at PetTalk have had cancer scares. I have had cancer and been cured! So even if your results seem daunting, the initial diagnosis can be scarey but the outcome much better, down the road.......years later..........

So please try to keep yourself in a nice positive thought mode. I have found that it is so important to keep your spirits up during such a stressful time. Here in the US we have lots of support groups available for counselling and caring and information. Also, I have found that your best weapon is probably going to be as much information about your situtation, as possible. I know that for a while you will be in that unknown territory....and that is very frustrating. Once you get your surgery and the results, you will know which direction this will all take you.

Chin up deary. Take really good care of yourself during times like this.....eat a good diet and try to keep your spirits up! I know its difficult.

You will be in our thoughts and prayers.

Kirsten, SAS is right in her advice. I am also a cancer survivor so I do
understand the secret fears you have and the feeling of floating along
with the "unrealness" after first hearing a DR mention a possibility of this
dreadful disease. Hang in there. ((Hugs))

Kirsten - From what I read on the hystersisters site, you will likely have a laporoscopic procedure. That is a small incision with small instruments getting the cyst out.

Heck - there are entire hysterectomies done like that.

You will be unconscious, but home that day or the next.

HUGS!

Dear Kirsten, the kitties and I are all saying our prayers and doing our dances and crossing our fingers, toes, paw pads, whatever, and sending our love and lots of healing energies and comforting thoughts...

Love, hugs, and purrs,
Pat (another cancer survivor [breast]), Peony, Sydney, Poppy, Elmer, and Priscilla Angel (who plans a trip to Germany to keep a close watch over you and help keep Luna and Lily company)

You are in my thoughts and prayers, Kirsten.
