I met Dr. Samuel Tripp almost 10 years ago. My previous ob-gyn, Dr. Chafel retired then. I was in good health when i switched. The uterin cancer was diagnosed,( feb of 2000). Dr. Tripp took my health concerns right away. It happened so fast and thourough i almost, ALMOST didnt feel a thing. I was numb finding out at first. I was scared, but in good hands, LITERALLY. He is right there always, ALWAYS. On the phone, fit you inbetween whatever. He is professional, personal, i am never rushed. Dr. Tripp is never, NEVER not sure of information, if so he looks into it right in front of you. He never keeps me waiting, on it fast. His staff who i know well, Lori, Jean, are the best for the cancer information. In 2006, i developed ovarian cancer. I was in good hands again DR. TRIPP!! I was petrified, it was feb 5 years had past to the month from uterin cancer. UGH!! BREATHHHH!! You can just imagine. I had a 5 hour surgery, come to find out it was in my omentum, lymph nodes, and ovaries. It is now 2007 in July, going to have and see another b-day in July 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ! 16 candles and 1 for u know luck...i am old fashioned. I AM ALIVE, healing still(8in scar). He is the best to me. he saved my life. I wrote a letter,thnaking him for saving my life,giving me a life i see differently. I am not always glad i pulled through twice now, it's very difficult to see my body now. It gets better, somedays not. Just like life somedays good somedays when i was not without cancer. ENJOY Life, you will eventually get there my friends. If not for yourself, you have someone somewhere who wants you back in their life... take your time and heal, let them or anyone you have dear, help in doing something, the words may not be there. It's not pity, at first you dont like the how are you today, statement. It gets better, if you can try to reach a little goal every few days. Walk a lil farther, or eat a lil more, or just think more positive, slowly. You have the right to be upset, but dont stay that way too long, your scar will hurt!!! I"M NOT KIDDING...blow some bubbles and get, yourself strong!! I did, with the help and encouragement from Dr. Samuel TRIPP!!!!! I'm off to the pool today, cya, God Bless, Josephine.
