I am also praying for the Lord to give you peace that passes all understanding. Also praying for peace for your husband.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Julie H from MichiganJulie Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04385933796938108131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-87732542651573603022016-02-10T05:55:42.019+00:002016-02-10T05:55:42.019+00:00Thanks Sandy and Val!

What will be, will be! xoxo<br /><br />I wish you lived closer too Suzan, and not just because you have extra paper tools going! It would be fun to be able to do things together. You are a dear friend. xoxo<br /><br />Thanks LeAnn! When it comes to prayers, every little helps and I do so appreciate any you give. We were looking at blooming daffodils yesterday. I think we are in for an early spring here! Love and hugs. xoxoMarie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-3923094185307631002016-02-10T04:58:09.101+00:002016-02-10T04:58:09.101+00:00Dearest Marie: Can you ever go to another speciali...Dearest Marie: Can you ever go to another specialist for a 2nd opinion or change doctors. I think that would be a good things to do. That being said Colon cancer is slow growing. However, I do feel like they should not make you wait until May; that is so acceptable in health care at all. Number one concern is fear of the unknown is not fun at all and to have to wait is cruel. I do hope that you have some options of some sort. <br />I always love your Daybook. You are just so fun and you always come up with some great links. I loved the crocheted sweater and the adorable gloves. I like bees too. The cute picture of the dogs together was fun. <br />Always love your quotes and recipes. <br />Thanks for always blogging something fun. You are the best dear friend. You will be in my prayers and I am sending huge hugs your way. I to am looking forward to Spring. <br />LeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107717294803352571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-9359069496232735392016-02-10T00:46:28.055+00:002016-02-10T00:46:28.055+00:00I can think of another cause and a thorough colono...I can think of another cause and a thorough colonoscopy is needed and it is generally found when they use a camera tablet. I hope that there is nothing sinister.<br /><br />If only we were closer and postage was not so ludicrous as I have two score boards and envelope boards. Don't ask how. I would happily give you some as they are clutter when one only uses one at a time now that I am not teaching paper craft.<br />Suzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15283293507101152512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-37099647268086351452016-02-09T21:57:24.723+00:002016-02-09T21:57:24.723+00:00You'll be in my thoughts, Marie. ♥You'll be in my thoughts, Marie. ♥Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04587080107116858971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-85455323164839524832016-02-09T20:32:10.319+00:002016-02-09T20:32:10.319+00:00I shall be praying that you get that testing earli...I shall be praying that you get that testing earlier.

They took a lot of blood tests yesterday. I will should get a letter soon to tell me the date of the dreaded procedure. I am most surprised that they are taking so long for these tests. From what I saw on the television I thought the government had set guidelines that anyone with suspected cancer would be seen to within a certain period of time. By the time all is said and done this will have been six months of procedures and waiting. I just don't understand it. I wish I had the money to pay for one on my own, but alas, like most people I just do not. Thank you so much for your prayers. They mean a lot to me. xoxo PS - yes we did have a lovely sunny day for travel today and a very nice visit.<br /><br />Thanks Tracy, I can only think that our health care system must be greatly over-burdened here in England. Your prayers are also very much appreciated. Oh yes, projects are a great way to keep the mind busy and off things! xoxo<br /><br />Thanks Suzan, your prayers also mean so much to me. God bless you. I am sorry you have had to wait so long for your gall bladder op! That's terrible!xoxo <br /> <br />Pam, the Doctor says that the type of anemia that I have can only be caused from internal bleeding and that it is most probably cancer. Very reassuring I can tell you. He wasn't very comforting at all. I know that Doctors have a lot on their plates now with Government cut backs and being over-burdened with too many patients. It's getting to a crisis level I feel. Thanks for your care and support. xoxo<br /><br />I am very grateful for the busyness of my days Monique. It does help and is another blessing of being on a mission. Thanks so much for your happy thoughts and support! I know I am not the only one in this boat. There are so many who are worse off. xoxo<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Marie Raynerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00407913432222377267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-65031533525031485412016-02-09T13:28:39.646+00:002016-02-09T13:28:39.646+00:00Definitely totally frustrating to hear..there is a...Definitely totally frustrating to hear..there is a possibility of something..yet having to wait..we have been there..could you apply pressure..or find a priate source for your colonoscopy?<br />I know that waiting and worrying is just awful on the nerves..<br />In this situation many are being tried..not just you..seems like that though doesn't it..as our thoughts take up so much space in our mind..thank goodness you have passions..hobbies..duties..to make the time stand less still!!La Table De Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04358539954508050792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-762115079758642698.post-75900231148526270192016-02-09T12:29:24.084+00:002016-02-09T12:29:24.084+00:00I'm glad anyway that test you had turned out w...I'm glad anyway that test you had turned out well. I cannot help but wonder at why the doctor thinks that cancer is a possibility. Here they are strongly recommending colonoscopy for anyone over 50. I think they go way overboard on testing and I refused. Patience waiting will be hard for you, but trust that all will be well and keep the faith. It seems things always happen for a reason.

It is not acceptable when they start talking cancer.

Is it spring yet?! ;) But my goodness, what's about this wait for a colonoscopy??!! That is just outrageously long, if they are suspecting cancer (which I fervently pray it is not, my friend!) Why the long wait? Are there that many in the queue waiting?! Please keep us posted on this. An we pray in the meantime! Oh, a happier note--LOVE the fiber projects! That crochet cardi is especially lovely! And LOVE that pic of Baxter and Lucy--too cute!! Be taking good care there...

Thank goodness it was not yesterday, down with us we had the strongest gales I have ever heard..it howled and we had torrential rain almost all day..think the gales calmed down around ten last night, thank goodness...nice dry and calm now but think it feels quite cold. As it is shrove Tuesday Helen our new church worker is having a pancake afternoon from three till four thirty..we are hoping that perhaps Mums will bring in the children on way home from school...hope so as it is the first thing she has organised...take care love to Todd and not forgetting Mitzie xxxSybilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02516012178494813281noreply@blogger.com
