There is some concern in my mind about the things that have been happening lately.

Having to pack, the cancer on my husband, people that we care about getting sick. It is not like I am going to punch cigars into people’s mouths and say congratulations on what has been happening.

I can see people getting excited about babies. This other stuff, though, does wear on you and on the rest of your family.

Finally heard

Wednesday, August 4th, 2010

We finally heard back from the doctor about those things that were removed from my husband. Some good news, some bad.

Spot 1 - cheek bone, no biopsy, but it is healing nicely.
Spot 2 - the back of his neck was a basil cell carcinoma. The doctor will check it again in 3 months.
Spot 3 - the growth on his back was another basil cell carcinoma. When they examined it, they said that it looked as iff it had been completely removed just by getting the biopsy sample.
Spot 4 - the growth on his eyelid was normal skin, just a little tag.
Spot 5 - the sore on his arm proved to be a basil cell carcinoma, but it was slightly different than the others. This type tries to send out roots. The doctor will be performing an operation on the 23rd of this month. It will be a Mose surgery. They will cut, examine it, and if necessary, go back in and cut some more in little slivers until they get clean tissue and there is no more of the cancer. This usually has a 98% cure rate with no returning cancer.

The spot still itches on his arm and sometimes, it even burns. So we will see what happens.

Haven’t heard, yet

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

We still haven’t heard from the doctor, yet about those biopsies that were done on my husband on the 26th.

Some of the spots that were biopsied have already healed. The one on his arm that caused the appointment to begin with has not yet healed. That one is trouble and has been trouble for the past year.

The doctor froze it, burned it, and it still is open and not healed. That makes twice that it was frozen by doctors. I don’t know what to think about it.

He’s getting better

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010

Well after the other day, my husband was sore and had trouble sitting in our vehicle.

The safety belt made him sit back and his back was sore. We got home and I had to change the bandage right away since the site was leaking. Not enough to worry, or enough to check out life insurance leads.

I checked it out last night and the site was really looking better. It has stopped leaking, and it is not as sore as it had been. He was able to sleep on his back last night. As I put 2 ‘nots’ at the end of my last blog, you know that I am praying the biopsies come back all good, and free from bad stuff. :)

Operation - OW

Monday, July 26th, 2010

Well, my husband saw the dermatologist today. The doc immediately started to snip and take biopsy samples.

By time he was done, my husband had a few bandages on him and new instructions on how to take care of the different sites.

In a couple of weeks, we will be hearing from the doctor as to whether or not those things were cancerous or not.
