    Went to the doc back in late January and a spot on my lung that had been found in a CT Scan in December had grown from 5 mm to 7 mm. Couldn't get back for another CT scan until this Friday....been on edge for a couple of weeks....hopefully all is ok....I'll do what I have to do but I'd rather not have to do it. This from someone that has never smoked anything at all :-(

    I've got some good opportunities coming up but it's hard not to be scared a little bit. I tell myself that if I have cancer, I will have more time to play my PS3...small consolation methinks...

    Is there anything (truly) that scares any of you...please be honest?!

    Oh man! I really hope you're okay, you're in my thoughts! I love that you're so optimistic, you have such a great attitude. I would be a nervous wreck.

    I'm a pretty calm person and I don't show it but I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of my neighbours, I'm scared of failing as a mother, I'm scared of being broke. The failing as a parent thing is a main one though, I'm constantly told how awful I must be because I had Jacob young and out of wedlock. It seems pretty minor compared to what you're concerned about right now. I'm also really scared that my sister dies before I get to meet her. She has bad heart problems.

    Seriously though, I really hope you're okay! :(

    TheChosenOne I hope it is nothing, i dont know what more to say i was never good with words, just good luck and at the end you find that it was nothing.

    Well me i dont think i scare from anything ..

    I know what most will think everyone have something and scare of something

    but i am not because i i dont care if i even die tomorrow.. maybe a reason i am not scared
    I have a lump on my breast but i am not going to check it...not because i am scared but because hoping it is something so i dont have to live too long

    Damn, hope everything goes well. If it is anything, at least you caught it early man.


    I fear slow death. I fear losing my hearing. I fear living life if I were paralyzed. I fear being in the path of a gun barrel, no matter what kind of gun it is(within reason. Not like a water gun). I fear failing at life. I fear that I'll find life even more useless.

    Pretty much....

    You've been in my thoughts so much lately. I think I'm almost as scared about this situation as you are, Chosen. :(

    What am I afraid of? Watching someone I love and respect so much suffer.

    But it'll be ok. Like I said...I'm not allowing it -not- to be ok, so if those doctors have bad news they're going to have to answer to me.

    Chosen. My thoughts are with you. I hope all turns out ok. Keep us posted.

    I try and choose not to be afraid of anything. I like to think I can play whatever cards I am dealt. Truth be told, when faced with something I can't handle - who knows?

    I hate to hear what you are going through. I pray that you get better. I'm trying myself to find out whats going on with me and the pain I've been having in my liver area.

    I fear losing my parents and my son. I also fear going blind and/or deaf.

    Hang in there big guy.

    Depending on any one thing/person too much scares me. I am constantly afraid of loosing my job because I am dependant on it for my health insurance. I am afraid to be dependant on my hushand too.

    I'm sorry to hear that, man.

    I'm currently seeing my cousin go through a similar situation.

    I couldn't imagine what you're going through right now but you seem to be a very strong person.

    Hang in there!

    Sorry to hear about that, stay strong and try to keep a optimistic attitude - maybe it's nothing serious.We're all thinking of you and hope you'll be ok.

    It was a time when I used to arrogantly say that I fear nothing but after I've lost my brother what scares me the most it's losing the ones I love or having someth horrible happen to them and being unable to protect them.Things we have no control over happen in life and sometimes we can't do a damn thing to stop it :(- for me that's a scary thought.

    Wow i really hope things end up being just a false alarm for you, you have been through quite a bit already It's a shitty situation.

    Fingers crossed for you all the way.

    What I'm scared of is anything to do with my family, something happening to them they are all such big parts of my life (the children the most of course) I cannot spare anyone of them.
