T&P request for my mom (cancer trigger warning)

[subliminalrabbit]

Just got the call. It's lymphoma. Curable, but we don't know what her chances are yet. She'll be having her bone marrow tested and will be undergoing chemo.

Anything you can spare in terms of thoughts, prayers, love to the universe -- whatever you believe in -- would be so immensely appreciated. I feel unmoored.

[ordinaryme]

I'm so sorry subliminalrabbit. I hope you all get more answers soon and she can start on the road to recovery. I'm sending my thoughts and prayers to you all. Big hugs.

[sctiger]

Saying a prayer for you. I'm so sorry that you are going through this.

[huckleberry08]

Oh no, rabbit. My heart sunk when I saw the thread title. I hate this so much, especially after what a tough year you've had.

[cynthia2007]

I'm so sorry subliminalrabbit. Praying for your mom and you. Hopefully they can cure it and she merges through this.

[vitafelix]

So sorry, rabbit! I hope her treatment goes smoothly.

[stargazer763]

Fucking shit.
Yes, only curse words will do.
I'm sorry, rabbit. Cancer sucks.

[lizzybizzy]

Sending you lots of love and prayers, Rabbit. I am so sorry.

[madlizmom]

I'm so sorry rabbit - my thoughts are with you and your family. I hope everything turns out alright.

[colieann31]

Oh know. I teared up when I saw who the original poster was. I'm so sorry rabbit. I'll be keeping her in my thoughts. She can beat this!

[rjnbsmommie]

Coming out of lurking to send my T's&P's to your mom and the rest of the family.

[doodletwins]

I'm so sorry to hear this. Thoughts and prayers for your mom and family!

[subliminalrabbit]

Thank you so much, everyone. We still have a ton of questions (some of which a few of you have asked), and no real answers yet. My mom will see an oncologist early in the week and thankfully Dartmouth has set up a chemo center in the town next to where she lives, so she'll be able to get treatment without traveling far. (Dartmouth also sends oncologists up to her hospital, so I know she will be in good hands.)

Your success stories help me feel a bit better. I'm thankful it's a treatable form. And we'll take it as it comes.

And now I'm going to go and nap. I didn't sleep much last night and I'm just thrashed.

[amiet79]

I'm so sorry. ((Hugs)) Sending positive thoughts your mom's way. I'm glad it's a treatable form and I hope everything goes smoothly.

[lingeringwithcoffee]

So sorry to hear this! Many thoughts and prayers coming her (and your) way!

[cl8badb]

Im sorry rabbit. ((big hugs)) Sending many prayers and keeping you gals in my thoughts.

[skk]

Big hugs. Sending thoughts and prayers to get through all of this. I hope you all get more answers soon because the not knowing is the worst.

[musicalsilver]

I think stargazer763 put it best. Sending lots of good thoughts your and your family's way!

[melohdy]

So sorry to hear this. Praying

So sorry, Rabbit. My own brother is a lymphoma survivor also, diagnosed at age 26 just a week before his wedding! But now he's in remission and kicking ass. His was a hybrid form of Hodgkins and non-Hodgkins that they called Gray Zone Lymphoma.

I was a lurker on a lymphoma message board during his year of chemo...let me see if I can find the link...
