    Linda...thanks for asking, Mr. Arnie is doing well.  The only thing they found after all the testing was that he had arthritis in his neck which might be causing the headaches.  He was told to avoid stress!!!  Yeah, when they discover how to do that I hope they let us know...hehehe

    Hey bunnies..........how 'bout we all travel to Arnie's house and camp out in her back yard. It DOES look like a fun place to hang out and maybe even do some Christmas shopping....LOL

    Hope everything is feeling ok.

    BKC........you'll be fine and the girls will be fine. I remember that day just like it was yesterday. My DD is almost 22 years old. It hurt me worse than it did her when I left her on the first day of school. I cried all day for 3 weeks. But she did perfectly fine. Even told me one morning.........mommy, don't cry.........it'll be ok. uuugghhhhh So just remember they wouldn't be normal little girls if they weren't starting to regular school without their mommy. Big hugs to you still 'cause I know it breaks your heart!!!

    Faithie..........sending you my voice too, just in case yours grows tired. I'm sure you will do fine. Just got to get it greased up again. hehe

    Hugs to everybody going through treatment.

    sure hoping Arnie, MaryRose, Lursa, Kathleen, Jayne, Jane, Barbe, CAROLMARIE, and anybody else in treatment of surgery recovery is doing ok!!!....my mind is thinking of Lottie, Jaimieh,Footie,Lucy, Lovinmomma, Vivvy, Shiny, Mum, (MOM), Sharon, Julz, Linda, (Deb), KAK, Nancy,Cheryl,.....I' keep trying to brainstorm without going back a few pages. I hope I didn't miss anyone, but please know that you're all in my hearts and prayers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No housecleaning today 'cause.......'cause...uuuummmmm.........just 'cause........well, just better not just in case! LOL

    BKC:  Hang in there - I had similar problems - eventually it gets better but in the meantime, it sure tries your patience.

    Coonie - how are you doing girlfriend? 

    Arnie - that is one of the cutest things I've seen!  Your garden is so charming.  When you find out how to reduce stress please let me know.  BTW, I will also be dropping by for coffee.

    To all my sisters out there - sanity is way over-rated!

    you don't have to be crazy to be my friend but it sure helps

    I saw onc yesterday.  I couldn't tough it out until Monday.  All I wanted was a Rx to hold me over, but he wanted to see me.  It's not truncal lymphedema.  He doesn't know what it is, but it's not that.  He ordered a CT scan which I will have Monday.  He said my CA15 was normal.  I got my copy of it today.  It was 11.  Normal is >32.  But, it was 9 three months ago.  Should I be concerned because it is going up, not staying the same or going down?  No housework for me!

    Whewwww Kathleen.............that means I'm still a friend, and maybe at the top of the list. 'Cause I'm thinking I'm probably one of the craziest or looniest, as I've been called on several occasions.........hehe. Good to see you this morning girl. Sooooo glad you're home and doing better. You gave us a scare for awhile there!!!

    I have a pic of DD in 2 countries.  In Fort Covington, NY, there is a (former) bar called the "Half-way House."  It is 1/2 in NY (USA) and 1/2 in Canada.

    ? for all you Canadians- DH wants to buy a "parts car" from a woman just over the Buffalo border but we don't know what we do about customs?  Do you?

    Hugs for everyone.   My finger nails are going dead again.   I had my last Herceptin 7/16, guess it is still working in my system.   And the finger tips are sensitive to the touch, making typing a bit hard.   Nothing I can't handle...    

    I no longer "suffer" from Insanity, I pretty much enjoy it !!!!!!!   Hugs and prayers and blessings and blessings,   Nancy

    Hollyann, I am so sorry that you feel this way.  It is such a horrible feeling!  Do you have someone you can talk to near home?  If not, or in addition to talking to others, please feel free to come here and complain!  Let us know how you feel.  I think it is so important for you to get it out of your system.  Hang in there.  Anytime yu would like to PM me and complain or just talk, please do so!  We love you and understand how hard things are right now.  It will get better, it's just hard to know that right now.

    XOXOXOXOX

    OOh Holly, you sound so sad.  Please Private Message me if  you want to vent.  Just try to hang in there.  I think we all have those days.  We have this stupid disease and then life doesn't slow down for us.  We just have to keep going with the flow and deal with our everyday problems on top of our health issues.  Gentle Hugs your way.

    Arnie-I loved the poem.  I am printing it out for me to read when I am feeling down in the dumps.  The idea of a campout in your yard. Awesome!

    Jane-Hoping you are feeling better and keeping you in my prayers for a great outcome.

    I am still taking it easy and swollen.  Hopefully, my plastic surgeon thinks it is the trauma of the bleeding that is taking time to heal.  Good news is that I am not bleeding, bad news is the swelling.  If it doesn't go down soon, then he is taking me back into surgery to clean things out and make sure there are no clots in there.  Nothing comes easy.  I am trying to stay positive that nature will take its course and things will subside on their own.

    Well to all the ladies that I haven't personally addressed, a happy day to all of you.  God bless
