    Jim,

    I'm right there with the others and will keep both of you in my thoughts. I'm sorry to hear this news but I am thankful that it was caught in time to treat. I won't say I know how Glenna feels, as I was fortunate and a lumpectomy took care of things, but the waiting for test results and pathology reports is very difficult. As Mitchell said, sometimes all you will be able to do is let her know she has your support. Don't be surprised at sudden tears. If I had to guess, I would guess that Glenna is a very strong, determined woman and that will help to get her through the coming months. Please let us know how things go.

    My thoughts will be with you and your wife, Jim.
    I am glad to hear it was caught early, and I hope for a speedy recovery.

    Words usually fail to convey the full effect of the aid and comfort intended. But may you and Glenna take what comfort you can knowing that you are in my hopes and thoughts.

    I really appreciate all the thoughts and prayers. I am a believer in the power of prayer.
    She will make it through this and will be all right. And I'll be there right at her side. Jim.

    You and your wife are included in our prayers. I'm sure she'll be fine after the procedure. Lot's of great support now a days. Take advantage of it as most women going through this scary time really say they benefit from the support groups whether through their church or other organizations. Husbands benefit also.

    Jim, prayers sent for everyone involved.
    I was sad because I had no shoes,
