Sad news from cigalechanta
 

Mimi has asked me to let all her friends here know that her husband was just diagnosed with cancer. She will be very grateful for prayers and good wishes.

Will do. Please pass along wishes for strength in this difficult time.

Oh dear Mimi ~ Please know we knew 'one' of us per Scarlett was going through a rough time and not until today were we aware that it was you and your dear DH. Please know that you have been in our thoughts and many prayers have been said, and will continue to be said.

May you gain strength from those who love you! Tiff

Oh Mimi,
I am sorry from the very bottom of my heart to hear of this sadness of your family. You and your husband have all our good wishes and prayers. You have always shown incredible kindness to all on this forum.

Mimi, I don't know you personally, but I just wanted you to know that I am sorry to hear about your husband.

OH Mimi...my heart goes out to you and yours.
I hope it can be a managable thing as many are these days...do not despair yet..

Mimi -
I am fairly new to this board but I have so much enjoyed your postings and getting to know you through them.

Please know that you and your husband will be in my prayers and I am sending positive thoughts your way even now.

Take care,
Linda

Cigalechanta,

So sorry to hear this news-thoughts and prayers to you and your husband.

Dearest Mimi, I send to you from the westcoast to your eastcoast the strongest best wishes and good thoughts that your dear husband will be alright. You know how much I adore you..and you are in my heart..you both are. Don't give up the good fight dear friend.

Mimi,

I am so sorry for your sad news....please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you both.

I am sorry to hear the news Mimi. I don't post here too often but I know you from other boards.

You and your husband are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mimi,
You have brightened so many people's day on so many forums. At a time like this, with what you are going through I wish there was some way we could return the favor. Take comfort in the knowledge that a broad spectrum of people from many countries are thinking kind thoughts for you and your husband.

Blessings and prayers, kiddo.

Mimi,

So sorry to hear about your husband. As someone who has survived cancer twice (21 years plus another scare last summer), I know first hand the angst of diagnosis and treatment. Hope that he heals quickly and that you may enjoy years of beloved France together.

With best wishes,
Margie (and Larry) Krakauer

Mimi, as I told Scarlett about you just the other day, the person we choose to love is so much a part of the person we become that I know your husband must be a very dear man indeed.

I've been sending my thoughts to embrace you in a gentle hug, to right you when you stumble, and to acknowledge in the night your unspoken fears.

The countless many of us who have been the recipients of your kindness now send that all goodness back to you, in the hope that it will bring your husband strength, and calm, if only for a moment, your worried heart.

Mimi:

I'm sending my prayers to you and your family. Please take care of yourself.

Mimi, I am so sorry to hear this news. You and your husband are in our thoughts.

Dear cigalechanta,

I cannot imagine how frightened and anxious you are at this moment. To hear the word "cancer" from a doctor must be devastating. I will pray for strength for you both and also for the doctors to find just the right methods to treat this illness.

Blessings to you both.

Mimi,

I haven't known you other than from your postings here, which I've appreciated.

I know this is a tough time for you, 'cause I've been through something similar myself.

I wish you to be strong and don't give up. Good things can still happen at any time.

Gabriel

To a very kind and sweet cigalechanta,
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you and your husband for his full recovery. Hoping that you will enjoy many, many more wonderful years of travels together.

Hi, Mimi.
We haven't yet had a chance to meet up at Brasserie Jo--I was hoping to contact you once school was over and I had a chance to catch my breath. My wife is a cancer survivor; let me know if we can be of help.

Prayers and best wishes,

letour

Very sorry to hear this.

I hope that you and DH will be comforted by all the great people and their prayers and thoughts.

Dear Mimi,

I too am new here, but I grieve for anyone who gets this devastating news. I know all too well how quickly it can turn your lives upside down. But there are good treatments available for most kinds of cancer, and many of us here are testimonials to that.

Your calm strength and reassurance can be a great help to him. I join the others here in sending prayers for both of you.

Enzian

Please convey to Mimi my best wishes for strength and comfort for both her and her husband and my hopes that this will be a manageable sort of cancer. (I will write to her myself later because I'm not really big on posting very personal stuff on public internet boards.)

I'm so sorry your husband and you are going through this. He needs your strength right now, Mimi, but he is going to pull through this, you'll see. Please know that you and he are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is anything at all I can do, please let me know.

Cigalechanta,

I have so enjoyed your posts on the forum. I wish you all the best from the bottom of my heart. You are a lovely poster, and hopefully, all the good thoughts and prayers of others here will be answered.

Oh Mimi, I'm so sad to read this news. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your dear husband for a thorough recovery. My best wishes for you both...

Strength!

Please know I will be doing a Rosary for Your Husband tonight. I know God has You in His Mercy and Goodness.
Love Theresa from Detroit...

Mimi,

I am really sorry to hear about your husband. Please, be sure that you two will be in our thoughts here. Hope our positive thoughts can help you through this difficult time.

Mimi,
My DH has survived 2 cancers in the last 9 years. Attitude is everything! Keep the faith, and believe!

My heart breaks for you as I have some idea what you're going through right now. It was a year ago tomorrow that my husband was diagnosed. I will be praying very hard that a year from now things look as much brighter for the two of you as they do for us right now.

PLease let Mimi know our prayers and good wishes go out to her and her husband. May God look over you and give you both strength during this difficult time.

I have been in contact with Mimi and we are all hoping for the best of outcomes for her husband.

Mimi and Jerry, we are all thinking of you.

Cigalechanta,
I have also always enjoyed your posts. Both your husband and you are in my prayers.

Oh, Mimi. I wish I could bring over a casserole or cake or something! But the best I can do in this cyberworld is to send prayers and best wishes for your family.

We've just gone through 8 dark months with a family member who was diagnosed last fall. It takes all your faith and strength. Stay strong and don't ever worry that friends are "doing too much". Believe me, they always wish they could do more.

Jeanne

PS: It is encouraging to read all the cancer survivor comments.

Oh Mimi...I am so sorry to hear about this. My dear sister was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago, and she is doing fine, so I wish that for you and your husband too.

Sending good thoughts your way...
