T&P for Friend....

My heart is breaking for my teammate right now.  We aren't always the closest of friends but she just (literally, just, at work on the phone....) ound out that her Mom was diagnosed w/ lung cancer (after a long week of seeing something on an MRI, going for follow up, etc etc).  I can so relate, it hits a little too close to home actually.

Anyway, if you're the T&P type, send some to my friend J and her Mom.  They have a long road ahead......

Re: T&P for Friend....

  • Oh, that is horrible. The idea of losing my mother is terrifying, so the idea of anyone possibly losing a mother breaks my poor little heart.

    She'll need someone like you there for her. :(

    T&P her way.

  • Definite thoughts and prayers.  What a hard thing to go through..I can't imagine hearing that about my mom without losing it.

    Yea I got my Dad's diagnosis while at work.  I've had probably 15+ different desks/locations in the last 8 years but I can tell you exactly where I was sitting.  I got the news.  I hung up.  I called Jim in tears (we'd been tgether not even a year yet) and could barely get the words out and all I remember him saying was "stay there, I'm on my way...".

    She's heading down to her parents tomorrow (they live down South) and is staying there indefinitely while she helps them organize coming up here for treatment (they are here but retired down there.  Whole family is here).

  • Ugh. This made my stomache drop. Lots of Ts&Ps heading her way.

    My boring blog
  • Many thoughts, prayers and hugs! Receiving bad news, over the phone at work is truly devastating. Similar to this and Naylon's experience, I learned of my brother's death in this manner, although not on purpose.  I remember every part of that office, etc and it still conjures up negative memories.
  • T&P!  I'm on the peds cancer unit right now and yesterday we had a new leukemic.  Sadness.
