update

I promise to stop with the cancer updates after this.
Some of you know that Mark has been going for lots of new tests this week. We were told that he had another cancerous tumor in his stomach, but of course they did a biopsy to be sure. We found out today that it is more cancer. 6 more "upped" chemo treatments.

Thanks for everyone's kind words and T&Ps the last few months...you have no idea how I appreciate it.

So sorry P2   It sucks that you guys have had to go through so much, but he's lucky he's got you there supporting him as his wife.

Oh no, P2.  I'm so sorry to hear that.  And FWIW, I like the updates because I think about you guys and wonder how things are going.

Cancer sucks. You guys continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Mark's lucky to have you during this time (and you're lucky to have him, for that matter).

I just feel like an AW posting updates here, which is why I made the knottie FB account...but I don't have everyone, and have been unfriended by a lot of people who I'm sure still would "care" to know how he's doing, ya know?

I feel like I'm back at square 1.

P2, please don't worry about the updates. I hope you continue to share what's happening here if it helps you in any way. I'm really, really sorry to hear about this new development. My thoughts are with you guys.

Brie2010

Oh no, I'm so sorry to here.  You'll be in our thoughts and prayers.

That truly sucks, P2. But he will pull through it. You both will continue to be in our thoughts. You are both lucky to have each other. And you are such an awesome supporting wife.

I'm sorry this wasn't the greatest of news to receive today. Continuing to wish good thoughts for you.

J&K10910

I don't feel like you're being an AW, because I do think a lot of people DO care, and want to know.  I'm a firm believer in "if you don't want to read it, just don't."

temerityjane

Keep the updates going. There are probably more people than you think who stop from time to time and wonder how you two are doing.

I'm so sorry, pumpkin.  Thanks for providing the update.  Hang in there, you guys are in my thoughts.

I'm so sorry.  You are in my prayers.

Oh my gosh I'm sorry to hear that   I like the updates too, we are all thinking of you. 

TurtlesAllTheWayDown

Good luck P2. It seems like a difficult set back, but I'm sure things will start to look up soon.

And seriously? It isn't like you update everyday. Plus, this is cancer. It isn't like you're asking for WR help. Cancer - it's serious business.

pumpkinpumpkin

No one's said anything to me about it...I just feel that way, I'm not much for AWs...so to feel like I'm doing it myself, well, makes me nervous.

ohwhynot

I'm very sorry to read that; my best thoughts & wishes go out to both of you.  Fuuck you, cancer.

THIS! It would be different if you were all "Hey! Look at me! Look how cool I am! And what a great idea I came up with! Now tell me how awesome and amazing I am!"

But you're not.

thesuninherhead

Gosh P2, I'm so very sorry to hear that. 

 

Lots of *hugs* to you. I think you should feel free to update/discuss it as much as you want- it's a huge thing to go through and although we may not all have personal experience with it, I'm sure that I speak for everyone when I say that we're all here to support you.

mandysmear

You know how i feel about this and how I feel about you.  I will be thinking about you even more... in a non-creepy way.  Lots of love Jaime.

Andrea_Lea

You're going to deal with this like you did before - together and with all the fight you have in you. 

You're in my thoughts and prayers, P2Mark2.

I'm so sorry pumpkin Try to keep your hopes up as much as possible!

squirrly

Awww, p2, that's not what I wanted the update to be at all.  Hopefully these next six months will fly by, though.  I'll be thinking of you guys!

MeaghanandMichael

I'm really sorry p2 best wishes!

Nebb

Oh P2 Im so so sorry to hear this

BecW2be

Oh God P2. I'm so sorry. Here's to the quickest 6 months in the history of time.

Do NOT stop updating us. I always hate to ask because I don't want you to feel like TK is the place where you have to talk about cancer, but I always wonder if everything is ok. I'm thinking of both of you often. Be strong!

sarabellam

Chiming in way late here, but I'm so sorry to hear this. Please keep us updated. These are a lot more important than the posts about what to do with the flowergirl during an adult-only reception.

THIS.  I think of you often, but don't want to ask how things are going, because if things weren't going well and you didn't want to talk about it, that would be awkward.

6 months will fly by!  Stay strong and enjoy being a wife.

[QUOTE]I ♥ you, P2. I know you guys can do this. SIX MORE MONTHS. You guys can do this! Update all you want, P2. If anyone gives you shiit, I'll whack 'em in the face with my flipper.

This.  If anyone has a problem with you getting support and updating us they would have a can of whoopass opened on them so fast they wouldn't have time to blink.

Lean on us when you need to and know a ton of positive thoughts are constantly headed your way.
