I know it may seem that your world is coming apart but you have to remember to keep a positive outlook on things. Don't dwell on the worst thoughts when you don’t have all of the facts, as it will take so much out of you. It is important to keep in communication with those close to you. Try to get as much information from as many sources as you can. We all wish you the very best and we are here when you need to talk.
Julie, I can't even imagine such a traumatic experience. I glad you are with us today and wish you well for a full recovery.
God Bless

I will let my Christian Men's Business Group know about this and we will all pray for you and your loved ones.
I've gone thru some (what I call) difficult times and what I've learned for myself is to keep the faith that God is ALWAYS blessing us. Sometimes, we just don't understand or realize it in the moment.

Update - biopsy tomorrow...
Thanks to everyone for all of the thoughts and prayers. I have not spent much time on OSO lately because I have been surfing all of the cancer sites to learn as much about "the beast" as possible. I now think I could go into med school. Not the way that I prefer to get an education.
The pathology report indictates that it is a grade III tumor, which means it has the tendency to be aggressive. It was inconclusive regarding muscle intrusion because no muscle tissue was present in the specimen. This means that she will have to go back into the hospital tomorrow to have some more muscle tissue removed for a biopsy. The results of this will dictate our future course of treatment. Obviously, with the pregnancy our treatment options will be quite limited.
Wish us luck, and say a prayer for us if you have time.
P.S. - If we get unfavorable test results, there is a fairly good chance that we will have to travel to a larger city that has more experienced doctors in this type of cancer. If this happens, I might get to meet some of you all.
Thanks again,
Tom

I will be praying for you, your wife and your baby that things go well tomorrow. I'll keep you all in my thoughts along with my friends who lost their fourth baby a couple of weeks ago. Please keep us updated. God bless you all.
