Hi To All,
Thank you so very much for all the prayers, and words of encouragement. Also a big Thanks to Grandma Sorotski for helping us out this last week. Darren, Junell and I appriciate it. It was nice to be able to stay at home in the city for a few days. Hopefully next week I will have more energy and be healed a bit better from surgery to stay at home alone with Darren & Baby. Also this week my girlfreinds Janice, Donna, & Amber have been stepping up to the plate to help out. It takes a lot of stress off of us and my family. I think they needed a break for awhile. This afternoon or tomorrow Darren will be taking Junell & I back to Humboldt so he can finish up at the farm. You guys are all the greatest! Please keep on praying!
To all my 12 Lorie's out there could you please put your last name on the blog. I am getting a brain cramp trying to figure out who you all are. God Bless you!
Sorry I have not updated this for awile. Things have been a bit crazy around here with doctors appointments, forms to fill out ect. I have had one rotten week. I don't think it can get any worse.
Monday Night - I had to go to the dentist with a sore tooth. They would not do
anything with it till after I spoke with my Doctor.
Tuesday AM- We called the doctors office and they called the cancer clinic.I
had to have the tooth pulled. They were worried it may get infected
during chemo. Thank goodness we did It had three cracks in it from me
clenching my teeth. They also fitted me with a mouth gaurd. Something
I did not need at this time. It feels much better than it did and it is
healing fine. That is a releif in itself! At this point I would hate
to do anything to compromise my treatments.
Tuesday PM - Well We have a final anser and it is not good! At this point surgery
is out of the question. I have been diagnosed with Adenocarcinoma with
mucinous and signet ring features. Thats OK I dont understand it
either. In our language it is on my stomach, ovaries and omentum. At
this point chemo is my only option due to the fact is they do not know
where it started from because it has spread. Hopefully chemo will be
able to shrink it somewhat. Darren's sister Sheree has faxed my
pathology report to his sister Glenda in the states. She has sent it
to the Mayo clinic in Rodchester for a second opinion. We got a call
yesterday that they received it and they will reveiw it and get back to
by Monday. We have also started the ball rolling on the best doctors
program. All my reports will be sent and they will have the three top
doctors in the word reveiw it. My doctors here have been great and very
supportive of our decison to get more opinions. Darren & I are trying
to stay hopeful that someone out there may be able to help us more. I
guess it is in Gods hands and I hope & pray he will give us some good
news. I hope he hears all our prayers!!!
Wendsday- Well today was another bad day! I had to go back to the dentist for a
cleaning on my way someone hit me. I am all right but the front end of
my car is in need for repair. What next! I felt like I had a big black
cloud following me.
Well this has been one emotional week! It was pretty hard to keep a positive attitude with all the weeks events. I just hope and pray that our life is somewhat normal from here on in. Its very hard being so independant and all the sudden I have to depend on everyone.
Darren & Junell have been a great support to me I love them so. Today is a new day and I need to brush myself off and hold my head high and fight for all of us. I guess this is all part of this horrible disease but I know I can put up a fight and try to beat this.
Darren is taking us to Humboldt today and picking us up on Sunday. My nefews both have hockey games on Saturday afternoon so I am hoping I have enough energy to go watch.
I should know Monday when they start chemo.
Take Care All
God Bless You!
Donna, Darren & Junell

There is a lot of people out there praying for you. Hope you have a better week. If there is anything I can do, such as laundry, housecleaning or take care of the baby, or anything else you can think of, do not hesitate to call me. Judy Tarko
Donna, I cannot pretend to know what an ordeal this has been for you. You are in my thoughts and I wish for you and your family the very best.

Donna, i haven't forgot about you because i pray for you and your family everyday. I have no idea what kind of pain you are going through at this time. I will be in the city on Tuesday until Thursday some time. So if you need me to pick up anything just let me know. Keep holding your head up high and also keep that positive attitude that you will, and i know you can beat this ordeal. All our love, Judy Ulrich.

Donna, you have been in my thoughts every day. I check your blog everyday to see if anything is there and your strength overwhelms my heart.I have been reading up on all this and there are survivor stories if you google this disease, you probably already have, but if you haven't it's there and its uplifting.I feel bad I am not there to lend a helping hand, but I hope my continuing prayers bring hope, strength and good things your way.If you ever need to unload on the phone..I'm here anytime. Keep up your positive attitude..it can only help!I'm so glad to hear the best doctors are on this..it gives so much hope!Take care and all my best to you Darren and Baby Junelle. Tanya
Hi Donna, Thank you for posting a message on Reg's care page. It really means a lot. It's just like you, thinking of others when you're going through your own tough time. I obviously know what your family is going through, and Reg knows what you are going through. It's terrible, but the only think that is going to get us through this is faith, positive thinking and a whole lot of prayers. I've never prayed so much in my entire life. I just want you to know that I think about you and your family all of the time, and you are in my many prayers throughout the day.
Keep your chin up, try to think positive thoughts... I know it's really hard, but you have to. I hope your treatments will start soon. Stay strong, and stay well.
Laurie, Reg, Nolen and Nathan Timmerman
