Ohmygod, mimi. You guys are in my & Leebob's thoughts & prayers.
Mimi!! You must be feeling overwhelmed right now, you poor thing :( Sending big strong hugs and best wishes to you from here. We're here for you anytime you want to talk.
(((((Mimi and Don)))))
Call me if you need anything at all. (I live a lot closer to you now!)
Mimi, and Don,
Oh big hugs to you both, from me and Chuck. Take it one step at a time. Your focus is going to narrow down to just the important stuff- let the rest of it go, and don't be afraid to accept help.

You guys are all amazing.
I've been on this forum for what, 4 - 5 years, and how many amazing women have I met here?!
Thanks for your good thoughts and supportive words. We got back from the doctor and he says it's treatable. It's nasty surgery, but hey, that's better than a death sentence!
Knott, just how close are you?
Mimi, my thoughts are with you and RD.
mimi - I'm very sorry to hear this, but glad to know it is treatable. It's overwhelming, I know. Please feel free to talk to us when you need to, or if you need our collective shoulders to cry on. Hugs to you and RD.
I am sorry to hear this news, Mimi. Please feel free to unload your thoughts here.
Oh Mimi. I'm so sorry to hear that. Hugs and prayers to both of you. Be surrounded by our light.

Mimi, you're an awesome chicka & you can get through this.
All I can think of is don & humour...:D
Besides the implications of cancer in general, the thing that is so frightening is that the surgery is so serious; cutting into the chest, removing and replacing the esophagus, possibly messing with his stomach too. This means he won't be able to eat for a while except through a tube. If they do any chemo or radiation, he will be rendered even more weak and this stuff is scary scary stuff. Many of you have been through this or have loved ones that have suffered through this. We just watched my stepfather have repeated surgeries in his gastric areas before he died, so we are a little nervous to say the least. Anyway, we both liked how emphatic the doctor was when he said it could be fixed. ahhh.. thanks you guys
