MDJunction to me

"MDJunction to me is a second home. I visit daily to support and get supported. Everyone is so great here. The people are what make this site so
perfect. When someone says I helped them, I feel so good about myself. When
I am down, I come here to talk with my lovely friends. This is a great site
and I’ve come to love it and my friends here. Thank you for making such a
wonderful place to call home!" (Joy75)

Beautiful Life

My story up until now with RCC. I was taking care of 2 sick parents that were both under hospice care. Somehow Cancer has a mind of it's own. It does not wait for things to be convienant. Not that there will ever be a good time for such a disease.3 years ago we had no signs other then low hemoglobin.The last few months my husband did start to fall asleep thru almost all TV shows. One time even on his keyboard. That got my attention. It was the weekend we took a trip to the ER. Much to our surprise they found A 14.5 cm tumor and told us they were sure it was cancer and it needed to be removed ASAP. It had been bleeding into the stomache lining and absorbing..Never came out in the urine or stool. This was a man who just had a colonoscopy.A full left Nephrectomy was done, The Adrenal gland was removed. The tumor had stayed incapsulated. All margins came back clear. We were released ..This is part one
