    Hi Ladies,

    I'm trying not to be upset about what happened Sunday - I don't know how I feel but thought it might apply to here :

    I was talking to a young friend Sunday at church (who was causing my boarder a little grief) , My Boarder came up to me after and asked what did he want?  - I told her that he was just asking how I was and gave me a hug..Then my new boarder said, "people at church told me, you are super emotional..So she just wanted to "Protect" you from him."

    Oh GREAT! I never even thought people thought that about me.. I am real bummed... EMOTIONAL - They haven't Seen Emotional GRRRRRRR...

    @!!!! Undecided

    We had a dearly loved border collie we had to put down when he was 16 years old.  For years, we said we'd get another puppy after.... after we retire.... after we get settled.... after we build a fence.... after our vacation....  Finally, one day I said ENOUGH - I want a puppy NOW.  We got a miniature Australian shepherd.  She's been the sweetest, smartest, "velcro" companian.  She's coming up on 10 years now and I'm so glad we quit saying after....

    Sandcastle I have been avoiding bringing the HIPPA rule here , but I think it's a good thing to be able to say "well you've just broken a federal law and there are x,y,z, penalties that go along with that if you are reported." Said enough times the Stupids may think twice before opening their flappers

    Sorry, but I don't get it - how does an acquaintance asking a question break a federal law? Did I miss something?

    It doesn't, I went looking to see how HIPPA covered invasion of our privacy by individuals AND so in the little time I spent reading , HIPPA doesn't protect us from stupids asking us any personal stupid question they want. If anyone out there has any info that's different ,please let us know. To bad it doesn't. I have a scar on my face and spent my whole life having questions re:it from total strangers. I had hoped our privacy was more protected with HIPPA, but not even close. BUMMER

    Thank you Alyson - I needed that so much this morning - I just found another lump last weekend and after an ultrasound, got a call from my surgeon - it needs to be taken out. something about necrosis (I don't want to know).. Here I go again.. Its amazing what people had said after I told them... Don't get me wrong but I am so tired of people taking the bible out of context and saying:  "Know that God won't give u anything u can't handle" I won't get into "religion" here but it had nothing to do with daily living, it had to do with you being used to spread God's word.. My niece said that to me...I know they just aren't thinking and feel the need to say something.. 

    Alyson you might have to put another funny picture below my post.. lets get laughing again!

    As requested.

    Gma, do hope that lump is necrosis cause they are B9. And if you read my signature, those shoes I have could be useful to kick people.

    Have a great weekend.

    Thank you again Alyson... I heard both ways with necrosis..It depends on if it is fatty necrosis or cancer cell necrosis.. I suspect it is all the dead tissue from radiation.. haven't seen the report yet - radiologist had no clue what the lump was but he looked at the whole scar. He did say he has seen cancer tumors that shape after radiation.... The surgeon's "worrysome" part is that the lump is different and away from the radiated scar and if 16 months ago, he had clear margins, why are there possible dead cancer cells in the area..

    Today, I am able to make my first contribution to this great thread (I have not been able to finish reading all the previous comments, but hope I am adding something new):

    I was informed by a manager at my job that cancer can be cured with baking soda.  He knows a doctor that is injecting the stuff directly to the tumors and it has no secondary effects.  Oh, the only problem is that the doctor does not accept health insurance and you have to pay $300 per visit, cash.

    Hubby - gggggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr need I say more.  i was trying to go to sleep and he ticked me off and I got madder and angrier and pretty darned MAD and now I am wide awake when I was exhausted.  Not even deep breathing helps.  Thought of this thread.  It makes me happy most the time. 

    We had friends over last week.  Was alone w wife and talking about my dx andsshe said, a woman she worked w had bc then she got mets to lung and she died.  Such encouragement, what do they thin,like the waitress who told me her DGM died from bc right in front of my little granddaughter.  That was the stupidest.  

    The rooster needs his arse kicked for ticking me off on a high stress day when I am exhausted, let's get the dogs involved.

     

    Gail, she was out of line, people sometimes like to say things to put us down, that was her way and it is sad.  Probably no one saying anything.

    Edited to add, that dog will not harm the rooster, it is a herding dog and simply KNOWS how to give the rooster a hard time until it does as asked.  But look at that face, I call it my ugly face.  BTW, Hubby is out of rooster house for the day, good man.

    Baking Soda???  ah, if only it were that easy....

    When I got my dx my daughter was after me to go to some "miraculous cure" guy she knew about.  A friend of hers went and was now "cancer free".  I asked how she knew she was cancer free and got a blank stare.  When I told my daughter I was going to go the "normal" medical route I apparently insulted her, as now she won't speak to me.  Ya gotta love the way some people handle stress.

    We will be starting a novena Tuesday Aug.14th . I have asked Frank to pick the novena. Please, keep him in your prayers daily as he is being chemo challenged at present. The herceptin has stopped working. We have many members that are having condition changes on the Catholic thread and throughout BCO right now. Please , join us on the 14th.

    A Novena is prayers said daily for 9 days with stating the intention of your prayer. An intention can be for a person , group, or a thought. This will be posted on threads also. You don't need to be Catholic. Prayer is Prayer. If something in the prayer doesn't fit your belief system, substitute or omit that portion. We are an Ecumenical group which means inclusive of all.

    Send your intentions to me by Pm or post on Catholic thread on sunday (preferrably) or monday and I will combine them into a one list. It takes awhile to do the composite list, thats why I ask that intentions be sent on Sunday, Pax Sheila(sassy)

    FYI - Surgeon decided he wanted a diagnostic mammogram with extra views before my surgery tomorrow - that's what I get for asking him to make sure he takes out anything that looks suspiscious.... Mammo at 3:30 today and then surgery tomorrow at 12:30.
