Everytime in my past when I've been confident I've been let down. So now, as I listen to week four, I'm torn. As some of you know, I am waiting for test results that won't be taken until March. I want to have the power of positive thinking and think that I'm fine, I feel fine and I'll be fine. But I'm afraid to feel this way because I feel like I'm jinxing myself, like so many times before. So I'm afraid I'm going to be shocked with news that the test results came back positive for a disease.

michelle,
why does it take so long to get the results back. so you can worry some more of maybe you will get better after all the prayers are said and when you go back it will be gone..tell you what happened to me.hope you don't mind. i went for results on a biopsy in 2004. i got the results and it was skin cancer.i was crushed. but i had someone to help me. my g.f who is now my wife.after i had surgery i was suppossed to have a skin graft in august. i had surgery in may. so i went there and waited all day in pre-op. well it was from 1 p.m.till after 5. and i was outside surgery when the plastic surgeon came out and looked at the place on my face and over my ear and in my ear and said wow.. i was wondering what wow meant lol. he said that it had healed to much and he cancelled the surgery. so you see, good things happen. take care and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. GOD BLESS..
don
good things come to those who wait.i like that verse..keep me posted please.thanks

HI everybody

I have suffered from depression most of my life, however, I have learned that waiting and worrying is wasted energy. If I can share my story I hope it helps. For 20 years now I have suffered from a car accident and never seem to get much better. In '98 went to the doctor and alot of testing was done. I have always had anemia and they suspected Lukemia which I did not know anything about. I asked and questioned what the cure would be? During the months of waiting for the bone marrow to be done my husband and I looked at each other and agreed I did not have Lukemia. The doctors said I was in denial. They had not even done the test and people looked at me like I was dieing. We could have worried ourselves over that but we didn't. When we finally got the test done, no fun to get bone marrow test, results came back negative. My doctor gave me a prescription for iron and no follow up test. Strange experience and doctors still don't have any answers about my blood problem. I'm not totally well but I am not as sick as they thought either so that is good. Keep your chin up there is always hope.
