Guest guest Posted November 15, 2000 Report Share Posted November 15, 2000 Hello everyone, I visited with Laurie last night. I was so upset yeterday. I was to meet her in the diagnostic, well.....they told me she was in the MRI area, not there either! They had me on a darn goose chase!!! After 45 minutes of running all over the hospital I gave up. I was hot!!!! Come to find out she was in Diag area the whole time. There were about 5 receptionist in that area, I knew I should have asked all of them! Geezzzz This is all I have so far: They suspect the pelvic area is the culprit and her ovaries. They are going to do a larposcopy at noon today but may need to do actual surgery if they have to go in deeper into the area. They need to find the cancer. Once they pin point it they will determine a plan of attack. We will not know anything until Thurs or Friday. Her husband came in last night to be with her for today:) I feel better about that. I will keep you posted. She said she would call me tonight if she was feeling up to it. SIncerely, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All within a week. I think its great that your making the trip, but know it will be difficult. Please tell her I care deeply. Lynn Laurie update > Dear friends, I just got off the phone with Laurie.
