Title: Time to talk with my family!
Post by Dave_Emond on Nov 25th, 2003, 2:20am
My Family,
Time I let you all know what’s been going on regarding trying to figure out just what has been causing my health problems over the last 3 months. Looks like we finally have a verdict, I’ve been silent up until now, as the news is not good and I’ve been trying to get a grasp on it myself. Spent 4 agonizing hours on the MRI table early last week at the request of a Neurosurgeon from Missouri for a full spine examination.
Conclusion:
Two small spinal tumors between the meninges (membranes covering the spinal cord) and the bones of the spine (extradural) behind the thoracic spinal cord at the T5-6 and T9-10 levels.
Next step, tomorrow morning: An MRI scan of the thoracic spine with and without IV enhancement for further evaluation.
T1 weighted sagittal and axial images of the thoracic spine prior to and after contrast medium are administered.
So, what does this mean? They’ll do MRI’s of my Thoracic Spine from many positions, then shoot me up with a dye and do them again. The results will tell if anything can be done to stop these tumors. Right now, options are limited; if they find the tumors are still growing we’re looking at dangerous surgery that can lead to permanent paralysis, if surgery cannot be done, death.
Apparently, these tumors are compressing against the spinal cord, blocking signals such as nerves and other messages to the brain. The signals are routed elsewhere, explaining the severe pain, tremors, loss of use of legs and the many other symptoms.
Of course, I’ve been having to “get my affairs in order,” wills, looking to close my business and sell off my tools, equipment and truck. Cut down my warehouse to a size to fit our household belongings and sell our home. As a last straw, might have to drop my nonprofit for abused children. Hard to guess where to go from there.  
Although everything might seem lost, my attitude has changed tonight. For those of faith (and even those who are not), it was an interesting evening tonight. Only knowing that I was ill, a group of people came over wanting to pray for me, saying they had felt compelled to. I showed them the MRI photos of the tumors and told them about the Chronic CH. They were not phased. As a Christian myself, I agreed to let them pray over me. After all, what brought them all here tonight of all nights? I knew a couple of them from the local mission, but not the others. My fears are gone, whether I’ll be healed or not. I have been wondering why I didn’t die in that ambulance a while back. I had always figured I still had things to do with my life and future, but at that point I was ready to go. But, maybe it wasn’t my time? Maybe it isn’t now? Maybe it is? Either way, the fear is gone. Strange how life works, 3 months ago before all this started, I felt invincible. If I could live with the daily torture of Clusters, what could possibly bring me down? Sure, I spent my share of nights rolling on the floor begging for death, as I’m sure many understand. Now when it becomes reality, I tend to want to keep fighting no matter how bad it gets. I’ve learned a few things; don’t ever say, “It can’t get worse than this!” and as Annette always reminds me, “Be careful what you wish for!”
Anyway, I’m not looking for pity no matter what happens. You all have become part of my family and I thought I should let you know now. Tonight was special, but tomorrow and throughout the week of waiting for results, I come to my family and ask for your prayers as well, I’ll take all I can get to remain strong and accept whatever may be. And for Annette as well. Been kind of a "zombie" for the last week, but am no longer scared to think or talk about it, especially with my family here. Thanks for all the support through this, we’ll know soon now.
God Bless,
Dave

Wish I had something profound to say.

I think you've been doing well with this and hitting all the bases. Heading for home is a good idea now.

You have all my vibes and even a prayer or two. It certainly does no harm.

I say it all the time but how about one damn thing at a time? It's your turn for a break Dave.

All my best wishes.

Dave,

You have shown us incredible courage and wisdom, how often do we get to see both of those attributes in one package? Personally, you have shown me that life should be lived proudly, I will be making some changes in my life because of this. Thank you.

You have a family of Gladiators, that don’t give up, who are watching your back. I believe that we channel massive amounts of healing energy, and you should be our proof. Stay strong, stay positive and know that we are in your corner.

All my prayers and vibes to you,

Dave,

Sincerely, I am shocked and sad to hear this news.  I admire all the work you have done in spite of what is happening.  I had read your posts about what was happening to you, but I didn't realize it had continued on - and I can only say you have a special drive and determination that is uncommon.  

As many have said here before, you have a whole lot of strength around you with this family.  Clearly, you have a spirit that is not easy to conquer. I pray for you, Annette and your family to have strength for eachother, come what may.  

Healing thoughts to you,
Peppermint

Dave and Annette,
you are both in my prayers and we are sending you strength to get through the coming days.  We are not to challenge God's will - you and I both know that - but we ARE here to fellowship and witness the Grace (as happened to you last night with your neighbours).  I have a feeling that's just the first of the blessings and miracles that are headed your way, Dave.  
Have the surgery - take the chance.  You DO have an army of warriors behind you and if you end up in a wheelchair, then so be it.  We'll help you get around.  I'm sure Annette has wanted to push you around for awhile anyhow!  ;)  Just kidding, trying to help you find your smile.  
Give this one to God, Dave - He will make the right choices for you.  And, I'm very proud of you for finding peace with this - THAT's the best first step you could have taken.  It will be smooth sailing from here.
Hugs and prayers,
Margi

Dave and Annette-
I have followed your story, and I'm still stunned by this news. You have dealt with so much, and you are still such caring people, with so much to offer others.....it makes this thread so very difficult to read.
I want you to remember that miracles DO happen....I have seen one, Grant has seen one, in fact, I think Grant thought I had gone off the deep end....till he experienced his own father's miracle.
Prepare for the worst....we all should.....but I will continue to expect a miracle.
My heart, my thoughts and my fervent wishes go out to you both....I'll be looking for news.

Dave,

I have been praying for you since you first gave us the news of your strange symptoms.  It is clear that God is actively working in your life. That was clear last night when your friends came to pray for you but it's also clear by listening to you.  Despite what you are going through all I hear is strength and peace in your writing.  And only God can give you that kind of peace, you know that already.
I will continue to pray for you & Annette and for a full recovery either through surgery or through a miracle.  God has a plan for you Dave and he's working it out right now.  You don't know how much of an inspiration you've already been to so many people because of your strength of spirit.

Hugs going out to you & Annette. Stay strong.  He loves you and so does everyone on this board.

Dave and Annette,

Our prayers will be with you for sure, and I will be passing your name and situation on to our youth group at church and to the group of men who have become Christians at Cook Co Jail.  They will pray seriously for you.  I know that they pray for me daily, both as a group and individually, and I credit their prayers for the improvement I've seen with my CH in the last three months.

I agree with Margi.  Please if possible take the surgery and leave it in God's hands.  He can and will do far above "all that we can ask or think".  Please keep us posted.

I'm sending all the Prayers that you can handle!!

Trust GOD Dave, to help you make a decision by praying, and asking him to.

Dave, if you make the decision to let the Docs do the surgery, then have enough faith Bro that God will guide the surgeons hands and everything will come out OK!

I'm just hoping that the Docs give you good news, that they either don't have to do surgery or that surgery can be done.

Trust God with all your heart Dave, and we'll be praying for ya!!

  I have loved reading these posts. And I concur with everything everyone has said. Dave you have an adventure ahead but your steel has already been tempered, because you have been thru the fire many times before. I just love "coincidences." You finally find out what is wrong, and that very hour, someone is knocking on your door. When they leave, you have peace. It's got to be a God thing. How will it turn out? Who knows. But God has given you the peace that he is there and will see you thru whatever happens. I, too will lift you up in my prayers.
     You sharing your story has helped many on this board this day, including me. Thank You!

Amen, Virginia.  VERY well said!  

I agree with Jimi - it has been SO refreshing reading this thread and seeing the Holy Spirit at work here.  I know you're seeing it too, Dave and Annette, and I pray that this grace is bringing you comfort tonight.

God HAS brought you to this, and He will see you through this, my friends.

Wow!
I wish I could respond to each and every post here! I should have spent more time last week talking with Annette and all of you. I knew Annette has been back and forth on clubbing me or giving me time to wake up. Fortunately, she chose the latter :)
No anxieties this morning during the MRI, I felt comfortable knowing so many were praying and no matter the outcome I've been blessed.
Annette watched the screen this morning and the tech pointed things out to her, but was not allowed to comment on anything. Except when Annette had to show him where an area looked like a "bear" :)
The tumors were still there, she could see them much clearer with the dye. The Radiologist was in today, and they're hoping to relay the findings and conclusions to my doc by tomorrow afternoon.
I'd like to think I've been strong, but I barely hang on at times. With Annette's unbeatable support, my faith in God and the overwhemling support from everyone here, that's what is really the key to any strength or courage I find. No way by myself. I can't thank all of you enough for this tremendous support, but know my prayers are with all of you as well.
I think I may even get some decent sleep tonight, all your messages have really put my mind at ease, and trust me, I CAN feel your prayers and support.
I'm going to start looking ahead now to seeing old friends and meeting the many more I have made here in Nashville.
Sounds like a plan to me!
Will let you know what we learn tomorrow.
God bless you all!

Post by SommelierCH on Nov 26th, 2003, 5:49am
Dave,

With love for you, your family and your good works, I’m going to stick my neck out here (pun intended), and share what I see. Some people will get it, some people won’t. I want it to be public, but it’s for you.

In college I found out that I (the conduit or switch, it doesn’t come from me, I’m just in the middle) could take away people’s headaches by putting my palms on their forehead and the nape of their neck, looking them in the eye, counting down from 10-1 and zapping them with God’s energy, kind of like jumper cables. For many years, I have been trying to heal, even without seeing or touching the person. I just try to visualize and work with white light.

When I visualize, I (we) sometimes see dark spots in the body, and I try to erase them or make them shrink to a single point and pop like a zit or just shrink and disappear (not always easy to do). I saw your dark bumps, and when I went to take them off, the two came off clean, no damage underneath. Easy and smooth. I’ve never had that happen before.

If you find out that it is operable, I have nothing but good feelings that it will be a success!

I wanted this to be public, because there are a lot of people of faith on this board, who might not be practicing “laying on of hands”, or even believing that they have the power to heal. God is in all of us, and we are all God. Open yourselves up, and let the healing power flow through you.

All my prayers and vibes to you and your family Dave,
David J.

Dave,

I don´t know you but wanted to send some good thoughts your way anyway, seems like you really need 'em.

The little bit I know about tumours is perhaps worth sharing. Tumours usually nourish on  something, some tumours nourish on the availability of iron, others on other substances. Perhaps you can find someone with more knowledge about this; anti-cancer diets are sometimes based on this facts, if you´ve got a tumour that´s sensitive to a certain substance and you keep you diet really LOW in this substance, it could perhaps make a difference. If your diet is high in this substance, it could have a bad influence. This is not something I make up, regular medicine works with the same kind of principle.

Example:
In common medicine it is not uncommon to treat a person with prostate cancer (this is just an example) by taking as much male hormones away as possible (this is called "chemical castration"), because prostate tumours "nourish" on these hormones. Taking them away has a positive effect, will suppress the tumours growth. Conventional medicine usually does not look too far in that, they usually don´t look at stuff like iron, magnesium and such, other healthcare (usually alternative) sometimes do and can sometimes bring you further ... ofcourse in combination with your normal healthcare .

I don´t know if this info is worth looking at, but just thought I should mention it. Not that I think lightly about tumours, not at all.

Wishing you the best of luck.

Stay strong...continue to look for answers & never, ever accept any terminal sentence. Find the best Neurosurgeons the world has to offer & fight, fight, & when you think you've ran out of fight...Fight some more.

Good Luck mi hermano...

Dave,

You have blessed all whom have had the preassure to have met you.  I truly wish that you will be ok, but know that what is meant to happen will happen.  I am happy that you have found peace in the unknowable at this point.  It is truly am amazing thing.  I wish for you no pain and for there to be an outcome that will allow you to enjoy all that is around you.

Blessed Be,
Tiannia

Dear Dave and Annette.

I am SO sorry to hear this news - but so happy to see the support you are receiving.  I have to say that you are one of the strongest CH sufferers that I have ever met, and Annette has to be one of the best supporters too, so I know that the two of you will be able to fight this too.  Please keep strong and know that prayers are going out for you all over.  I sincerely hope to see the two of you again in Nashville.  
Love and blessings from Bonnie and Warren
