I've been having some pain in my left leg for about 3 weeks now. My family and everyone else keeps telling me that it acts like muscle pain because it only hurts when I walk... but I am scared and so I have a bone scan scheduled for this Friday... I probably won't get the results until after Labor Day, though... I know I keep bothering everyone for prayers... but I would really appreciate it if you could pray that it isn't cancer... I was really hoping to go to Florida... and now I don't know if I will be able to... I also set up an appointment for a second opinion with a small cell bladder cancer specialist at Vanderbilt Univ. next month... Thank you all so very much for all of the thoughts and the prayers you have been sending me... ~ big thank you hugs from a chipmunk who has temporarily lost her scamper Lyra |

Lyra, So let me get this right...you think you are a pain in the what? Hmmmmmmmmmmm? What better way to prove a friendship then to offer love, support and prayers. All of which you are always welcome to. Anytime, anywhere. Courage and peace dear friend with prayers on the way. If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |

Lyra, dear one, you have never left my prayers, as I pray for you daily. I'm still hoping it's only muscle strain and I'm so glad to hear you're getting a second opinion. I wish you the very best and wanting much for you to be able to make the trip to Florida. God bless you, my friend. |

Lyra, though I'm sure everything must be so scary now, perhaps it really is just a muscle strain. Be assured of my prayers, always, sweet lady. Sandra |

Lyra, there is no question that you will continue to be in my prayers. And never ever feel badly about asking...we all are in need sometimes. I'm glad you felt comfortable enough to share with us...there are lots of members who feel pain, physical or mental, that never ask so we can't add them to our prayer list. Please let us know how things go.... |

Sandra... thank you so much, very scary indeed... I think if I hadn't been through this with my first husband, I not only wouldn't be scared...but would never even think of it as anything to worry about... I feel as if I'm walking his path again. Sue... I hope that all is well with you, and I hope that you are right about it being a muscle strain... but hit hurts real big... thanks for your prayers PDV... Thank you so much for your support, I really appreciate it... and I certainly intend to keep everyone informed Marti... Thanks so much for the double prayers... I need all the angels I can get right now... and you are one of them Moon Dust... Thanks so much for your prayers... I cannot express my appreciation to all of you enough... God bless you all and ~ chattery hugs from the chipmunk Lyra |

Hey, you never left my prayers, and I betca you got a strained muscle, a quarter says I am right? But...I also know how scared you are going to be with every new ache and pain, so you scamper right in here for a big, ole hug anytime you need it - we are more than happy to hold you in a hug and our prayers. Stay strong, and don't let that great attitude go now Lyra. |

Never fear, just look at the responses here! A friend of mine was complaining of an ache in her leg for the past few days and found out yesterday that it was caused by an irritated disc in her back. She had lifted something at work and it began to show a few days later. Hope all is well and your trip will still be made. Just believe!! |

Thanks so much, Kaile... You are right... I should have but the closer the date gets the more scared I become...and then... there will be the seemingly interminable wait for results. This would happen right before Labor Day weekend. ~ hugs from a hopeful but scared chipmunk Lyra |

Thanks so much for your hope, ctowen... Your friend's back injury probably was hitting a nerve and the nerve ran down her leg... I know that this pain can come from my spine or my pelvis also because mine is also tracking along my sciatic nerve... I can feel it in my foot in the morning, wherever my foot touches the sheet, but it could still be cancer... Cancer can show up in any of our bones... thats whats so frightening. Thanks for thinking of me... ~ hugs from my heart Lyra |

You never need to apologize for asking friends for thoughts and prayers. Actually, you probably never even need to ask! I think we all love you very much, and are constantly praying and thinking healing thoughts for you. I sure hope the family is right, and that this is transient muscle pain. warm hugs from the rockies, midnitesun |

Hey You! Little Chipmunch! Don't ever feel you are a burden to us. You have given each of us such an inspiration, and I am happy to always keep you in my prayers... Hang in there....and start saving up those nuts, acorns and seeds, after all...chipmunks are supposed to save up over a bushel of food for the winter... Get hustling....ya got some foraging to do as of yet.... Hugs lady C.... |

Barry... thanks so much for your prayers. I have been trying to get those acorns stuffed into my cheek pouches, but its really hard to scamper on 3 legs instead of 4. I tried using a cane...but they don't make them small enough for chipmunks yet... I guess thats a good business to start. ~ hugs from my heart Marsha... thanks for those flying or floating prayers from across the pond... It was so wonderful to speak to you the other day. You gave me lots of confidence... but I still can't say for sure whats going to happen. I really don't think its osteoarthritis though, because nothing like that showed up on my last scan... and it seemed to have come on awfully quickly for that... But, hopefully... I will get some answers soon enough so that I will be able to see you in 25 days ~ hugs of hope Lyra |
