Poorly Differentiated Adenocarcenoma. Thems big words. Words that will never stop ringing in my ears, but maybe I need to rewind and fill in some gaps. Chris has been suffering from what we thought to be Hepatitis A for over a month now. Early Friday morning, the pain became too much for him so I rushed him to the ER. Tests and bad news. They found a mass in Chris’s liver. He never had Hep A.
Suddenly, in a blink, I’ve become one of those blogs. I’ve become a cancer blog. Yup. Chris has cancer. We know what kind, but we don’t know all the facts. More tests to come before we get a game plan. Until the news, we still believed that the mass was just an impossible tortilla chip. That’s just not to be.
Yesterday the voices in my head were talking so loudly that I thought I’d peel my skin off. All the what ifs played around and around. Do you know, I don’t know how to pay the bills? It’s true. Chris does all that. We’re a team. C & C music factory. Now, we’re a scared team. But we are on our way to a plan to get Chris better. Our new motto? It’s going to suck for a while and then it’s going to get better. Because that’s really our only option.







I know it’s a long shot (we’re nowhere close to the same gene pool), but let me know if he needs us to get tested for matching for liver transplant.
Oh, and I’m sorry. Very sorry. I hope that all comes out well. I’m also sorry that it took so long to get a good diagnosis.
Looking forward to the getting better part.
The getting better part needs to happen very soon. In the meantime, I’ll be thinking about you guys. A lot. Please let me know if I can do anything from over here!
I know you are scared right now. That’s normal. Don’t worry about not knowing how to pay the bills, because you won’t have to know. Everything is going to be alright. Baby steps. Stay in the moment if you can. I know, easier said than done. Way easier. We got you guys if you need anything. I can even take some leave if you two need me. I mean that. Positivity is everything here, and let me tell you, the people that love you are going to surround you both with every bit we’ve got.
