In which Amy updates about her cancer

[alexielnet]

Hello again. I have an update on the tumor... and the news is not particularly good. I have Adrenocortical Carcinoma in stage 4 meaning that it has spread to my lungs as well. Currently the survival rate is 25%-35% after five years, which I don't quite understand since the there are two adrenal glands and you only really need one. I will have a lot

For some reason I've been seeing your locked posts but not your public ones. I didn't know it was this serious. I'm scared for you and I hope everything works out. I'm so sorry you're going through all this. You've always been a brilliant, special person and you deserve better. ♥

I'm so sorry I didn't reply right away. I read your message, but I did that thing that I do where I think "I'll wait until I have a few minutes to write a thought-out, worthwhile response" and then it gets put off until God knows when. I had set a reminder on my phone to respond to you this evening, but a short note now is better than waiting, I think.

I would be happy to host your sites for you, and your domain name as well. Let me know what we need to do to make the transfer. If need be I could probably handle the move myself if you send me your hosting and login information.

Oh God thank you! Like I said I am having a lot of confusion right now so I am not sure about everything. My site as it is takes up about 600 mb of space I think. Is that a lot? Would you be able to host it as it is pretty much or would I need to trim it down, because I will if that will make it easier? I'm not even clear on how to work a transfer at this point. All I know is that I don't want my sites to disappear forever until absolutely necessary, I worked so hard on them for 12 years. It seems a shame to have them go. I might need you to explain a lot of it to me because I am so confused.

I'm going in to the hospital tomorrow. In better news, I am facing financial ruin, but at least one good thing has happened and that is the operation in going to be covered by a charitable foundation so I don't have to worry about getting in at least! I'm not sure how the rest of it will work out but at least there is that.

I have plenty of space so hosting it all as-is will be no problem. If it would take some of the stress off of you, I can take care of the entire transfer myself if you're willing to send me your login information. Basically the process is to download your sites via FTP, upload them to my host, and transfer your domain to my account. I'd need:

1) The name of your hosting company
2) Your user ID and password for your host
3) The name of your domain registrar
4) Your user ID and password for your registrar

You can email the info to me at dejanatalis@aol.com.

I'm glad to hear your operation is going to be paid for.

I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I've been having major computer issues and I've forgotten all my passwords and can't reset them because they're all connected. That means I might lose my Face Book and my Live Journal. Also my lab top is about to die. I feel like I am in a whirlwind of problems. I know you have your own stuff to deal with so I hope this doesn't up set you. I wrote down your e-mail and I'll try to save it some where so I can contact you because I hope to stay friends even after all of this.
