Dear Marco,

I'm sorry to hear that you are in the hospital but sometimes it's best to be there. I hope that you your UTI is resolved quickly and that some of your bowel issues can be helped while you are there. I hope it's not long before you are able to go home.

It's not fair that this is happening to you - life can be very unfair - I'm thinking that God has other plans for you. I don't want you to suffer at all - please let your lovely palliative care doctor know of your concerns - you shouldn't have to be in pain.

Love you lots Marco and praying for your comfort and peace. You are in my thoughts.

Big hug and kiss for you

Love Michelle xxxx

Hello, dear Marco.

I am so, so sorry to hear of your UTI.

I wonder if they are going to do a PET or CT while you are in the hospital anyway?

Sending you all my love and prayers for a very speedy cure of your UTI so you can get out of there right away.

xoxoxo
A million kisses,

Marco,

I don't post as much, but just letting you know I am following your post every day, and thinking of /praying for you everyday.

Hope your UTI is resolved soon, and you get more pain free time upcoming.

Yes, it is so unfair someone as young and wonderful as you are got handed this card. I hate cancer with passion.

Sending you lots of hugs.

Marco, I'm so sorry you not feeling comfortable and that you are in the hospital. As someone else said, sometimes hospitals are a good place to be. I hope that you are released as soon as you feel better. My thoughts are with you.

Dear Marco, I am so very sorry that I will not get to know you here. I wish that these bodies of ours were not so fragile, so evanescent. May love go with you always and everywhere. I am thinking of your family and dear ones... may they have peace as well.

Dearest Marco,

I hope that UTI is feeling a lot better by now, and that they are getting ready to let you return home.

I know it's so, so hard to sleep in those noisy hospitals. I hope you can get some rest.

Here comes a gentle hug and a million kisses....

Love you,
