Queen of Megadon Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I just got an image of a scrappy little fighter girl...stoopid cancer cant keep her down! Stay strong, be there...dont ask what you can do, just do. Bring a dish, or grill a meal. Take their other children to their appts or playdates or what have you. Dont be invasive, just be there at the moment they are thinking..."how will we manage all this?" Sending love and positive thoughts hon...praying for the best!

1 of the 7 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I so feel for your daughter's friend and how scared she must be feeling. Sending out all good wishes for her, and strength for you guys in her support network. My father lost his battle with bone cancer about 20 years ago, but he survived much longer than they gave him hope to, and was able to see milestones like my niece being born and as a toddler. Here's hoping that in the 20 years since then, they've made advances that can give this little girl what she needs to beat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

go2wrk@95974 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) So sorry to hear about your friend's daughter. Cancer is just a despicable disease.It attacks good decent people 95% of the time..if not more.All you can do is be there for them, and pray for healing, if your so inclined...thats all you can really do. It's such a painful hopeless feeling to not be able do anything more for them. I know what your goin' thru. My dad and both my grandfathers died of cancer.Just stay strong for them, and give them as much comfort as you can..I'll pray for them.Take care.

Mara Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 Prayers for all involved. But yes, there's great success with curing childhood osteosarcoma, especially when caught early - and often it's discovered exactly as you described. The treatments are hell, and I hate to think of an eleven-year-old going through that. But hey, if they save her life and her leg, well worth it.
