Amen! Couldn't have said it better Tori!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

blondelawyer - Hawaii sounds wonderful!! I'm sure it's a lot nicer there than here in KS in 102 temps for the last 2-3 weeks and no relief in sight this week. Have my next to last chemo treatment tomorrow - hopefully they will change the nausea medicine a bit so it won't be so rough. Hemmoroids are better.
Hope all are doing well as can be!
-
Blondelawyer ~ Thinking of you today as it is your last dose.... YAY!!!!
-
Hi Ladies,
Just wanted to bump this up and see how everyone is doing! Blondelawyer, thinking of you and wondering how your trip to Hawaii is going?
Kathy, how are you doing?
As Tori would say, I hope everyone is doing good and feeling lighter!
-
Thanks ladies! I ended up in the hospital with low WBC and just feeling awful, so I had to postpone Hawaii. I'm feeling a lot better, but still anemic. I go in tomorrow for a blood transfusion and then have surgery next week,.
-
Blondelawyer ~ So sorry about that! Glad you are feeling better! I am praying for you and will be thinking about you. Let us know how you are doing! ((((Blondelawyer))))

sending postive thoughts and prayers your way Blondelawyer!
I have a nodule on my thyroid - could explain the drastic diet change to vegan, no sugar, no processed foods - and no weight loss??? we shall see.....
-
Thanks ladies. I'm getting my transfusion as I type.
Sagina: I hope that the doctors can figure out what is going on with the nodule!
-
oh blondelawyer i hope so. mind ya, I would have never know, but I have clavicle swelling above where I had port removal surgery two weeks ago. They were thinking blood cot - so nodule, well, better then clot, and maybe now some answers on the weight? I hope so, I've always wanted to take a magic pill and watch the fat melt away!!!! lol. Hope you are feeling ok.
-

Ladies,
It's been awhile since I've checked in...how is everyone doing?
Me? Well, still chugging along...the weather has started to cooperate (thank goodness), so I find myself now wanting to got outside and be more active....so, I hope that equals some extra weight starting to creep off...
I pray you are all doing well...and feeling even better!
Tori

Hi Tori - I've gained 10 POUNDS since my last day of rads.....I maintained my weight not moving a pound since surgery in March and then 10 pounds just like that!!!!! Is it the hormones coming back? 10 pound of PMS all the time? Thinking I need a colonoscopy so I can drink that gross stuff and loose 7 pounds fast! lol.
