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.
