    I can't believe it has been this long since I have posted here and it suprised me when I found the thread...

    Tomorrow I go for scans and of course I am scared and nervous..I have not had a scan in at least 4 months or maybe 5, that is the longest I have gone without one in a long time..

    Since Feburary or Marcn I have not felt the best..My onc is trying his best to give me a chemo break for as long as he can.. He tried me on arimidex for about 3 months and now I have been on Faslodex for about 3 months...My tumor markers are steadly going up... In January they were around 120 and last month they were at 270.. So in less they drop this time I am really scared I am going to have to do chemo again..I am thankful for the time I have been off chemo though..

    I have not talked to Patti lately, I will give her a call soon...It has been at least 3 weeks or so, but she was doing good when I talked to her...I really miss her posting ..

    I am going to have to try and catch up and see how everyone is doing.. I have thought of all of you alot and kept you in my prayers.. My sweet brother gave me a laptop and I hope it will be easier to get on the computer more...

    Sending Hugs and Prayers to all...

    cherie darling boop,

    how wonderful to get a laptop with all your darling bells and whistles pictures on it!

    i so hope your scans go just the way you want them to go and that you can face them calmly with many deep breaths.

    if you need to do chemo again, odds are they have a new improved version that might not be so hard...

    i am sure this all weighs heavy on your mind and i hope you can get free of the worry as we head into autumn...

    prayers of hope and strength are yours

    from me...

    Hugs and God Bless,

    Hi Laura and Carrie,

    It feels good to get on and post again..I have missed you all alot...I also miss Patti too, I am going to have to give her a call soon...Thank you both for your thoughts and prayers,it means so much too me..

    I have not had a great week, but I keep telling myself it could be worse..Just generally not feeling good at all..Tired all the time, some nausea, and some headaches, plus a little bit of a pity party..

    I was doing a little better and then I got a call from a chemo buddy's husband Friday evening and she had passed away..Her name was Cheryl and she was one great lady..

    It just seems like sometimes when it rains it pours. Today was better than yesterday and I hope and pray tomorrow will be even better..

    I hope both of you are doing good...Sending hugs and prayers to you both...

    Deb,

    It has been along time and I am so sorry you are going through this too..I was on xeloda and taxotere for about 10 months and it worked good for me..I will keep you in my prayers for these chemos to work for you...When will you get tested again to see if they are working?

    I don't know how people that don't turn to God for strength can do it..I know I couldn't do it without God and without my family and friends..I will keep you in my prayers and hope to hear from you soon...

    cherie,
    good to see you logging on and checking in...
    i always feel that pity parties are a good thing and in the end productive because i look to the lord and my faith even more and come up with a plan...
    it is so hard losing buddies, it can easily take the wind out of our sails, the way i get through it is to make a pac with my new angel sister that i will carry on in their name too...{hope this makes sense.}
    i hope that you find your strength soon, i know you have your higher power...and i pray to god that he will give you some ease in this rocky patch...
    i too miss patti's presence and solace and hope that autumn will bring her back to the board if it is meant to be...
    prayers for patti and her mum...

    but most of all, cherie, i hope that you can find some big winds to put under your sails and feel strength growing each day...

    god bless you as the wonderful spirit and inspiration that you are, i thank you!

    Hi Laura, it took me awhile to figure out how to post a reply..I don't do real well with change either, but hopefully it won't take me to long to figure this out..Smile

    The last few weeks have been a little rough on me...I have been really nauseated and not been able to eat much, which made me weak..So I have been making myself eat and I have felt a little better...

    I have got to see my grandkids more the last few weeks and they have been real good medicine for me, plus my son has moved back home for a while and I have really enjoyed him being here...

    I am looking forward to the cooler weather, but not the end of the summer...

    My neice had her first baby Thursday night , he weighed 9 pounds and he is the cutest little thing...His name is Aiden...

    Sending you hugs and prayers..

    Hugs and God Bless,

    Cherie

    Deb, I am so sorry about your tumor markers..I will keep you in my prayers...I go Thursday to the onc to see what my tumor markers are, I am worried they have gone up again, but I am really trying to stay positive...I have not felt good at all this week, had bloodwork checked Thursday and my bloodwork is down quite a bit.. That is probably part of the reason I have been so short of breath and just not feeling good at all..

    I will keep you in my prayers, sending hugs your way..

    Hugs and God Bless,

    Cherie

    Hi Laura, Carrie, and Deb,

    I have had a rough few weeks, but I am feeling a little better today...My onc  visit did not go as good as I had hoped...I have had some more progression...I had a place come up on my eyelid, which turned out to be the BC that has spread to my lacrimal gland, which is a tear duct if I understand right..My tumor markers jumped up 80 points, so I am back on chemo again...My eye is driving me crazy, I have trouble reading and focusing...My eye is swollen on the top lid and around the bottom too...I have also been having some good headaches, which we think our caused from my eye...Please keep me in your prayers...I am sending hugs and prayers your way...

    Hugs and God Bless,

    Cherie
