please help

Just a quick pop in,  Lisa again soooooo happy for you. ENJOY. 

Mel so happy your onco visit was good,  and Karen heres praying for an all clear at yours. 

Shelia hope that cold gets better ASAP. 

Yes my girls get along for the most part,  but they are complete opposite in many ways,  I thank God he has given me the chance to have my family close,  but also saying  prayers for some sense of peace,  calm and normal days SOON.

Yes girls one day closer, and it can't come any to soon,  the last 2  days I have felt as though my body is just giving out,  today I spent in bed most all day (great new mattress by the way) can hardly walk or for that matter sit, I think I am 102 years old.  Just so VERY EXHAUSTED and hurting so badly. 

Good night all,  hoping things will feel better tomorrow.

LOVE YOU ALL - XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Barbe, the doctor confirmed my dx of sinus infection. I was fortunate not to have it settle deep in my chest (yet) and the coughing was mainly from the drainage. She gave me a Z-pack and script for some good cough syrup to relieve the coughing at night. I slept the best last night I have slept in a week. I saw the NP yesterday and when I was leaving, I wanted to schedule my annual physical with my GP, only to find out that my GP had left the practice. I will be seen by her replacement in November . Another doctor I have to train.

We had the Komen Luncheon this past weekend and it was fabulous. The cancer coordinator started out the luncheon in her welcome by saying that this luncheon was all about all the ways we get support: support from our families, support from our house of worship, support from local support groups, and even support from a good bra (that got a laugh). The survivors had name tags in the shape of a bra with a pink ribbon between the cups and their guests wore pink hearts. The entertainment part of the program just said 'Glitz and Glamour fashion show'. We kept it a secret that the fashion show was 'art bras' modeled by young women in black t-shirts. You should have seen the audiences reaction when the first model came out with her pink sequined bra on struting to the tune 'Diamonds are a girl's best friend'. Everyone embraced the fashion show and we received many comments about how fun the afternoon was. I will let you know when the photos are up on the wig bank site.

AE it was a sad weekend in Boston.  Not pretty at all!

Barbe the new bedroom is awesome,  and as we did a major clean while moving the old out and the new in plus our bathroom it is a sanctuary away from the rest of the house,  it sleeps great which I have been doing a awful lot of the past 2 days,  just have no GET UP AN GO, I am waking up tired and exhausted, yet I think I am sleeping pretty good through the night with my 3 Extra strength Tylenol PM's ,  guess just getting old - LOL.

Shelia feel better soon.

Bo, a typo in your post gave me a laugh...then a pause. "we are all occupying space in different parts of the palnet"

We are a palnet. We each occupy the space appropriate to our ability to give and receive. It works.

And yes, if there are stray cells, they are renting space until you evict them. Love that image. Welcome to one of the best spaces on the palnet!

Judie

Hey Judie how is that Jasper doing, keeping you busy and happy with joy I am sure, can't wait to have that one on one with Margo again.  She has gained a bit to much weight the past 2 months with dropping being left all about, soon back to her normal healthy diet and exercise. 

Judie they pick the key up on 10/9,  we will begin moving the small stuff that day,  but all the men must workon Friday so official sleep in date is 10/10.Saturday ,  so 11 more days,  so close yet so far. LOL

Maro actually surprises me as far as being so great with others,  I am of coarse her prime soul mate as with little dogs they do like one person best,  but she truly is amazing for being a Chihua ,  she is fantastic with the little kids,  not snippy at all,  they can walk over take her toys/treats without a hitch, that is not normal for that breed,  we did get lucky there.  She is a little fatty right now and most definetly needs to diet in 11 days. - LOL

It is a beautiful AM here in Fla,  our cool front has come through  -  love this time of year,  sure hope it lasts until next June,  but they are saying expect the humidity to return by next week - DARN.

Hugs for Vilma

Nancy, great synopsis! The Yellow Brick Road image isn't used as much in our conversations, but it is as fresh in my mind as it was two years ago. Some of us trying to find courage, heart, and wisdom to face the journey, others cheering at the gate to the Emerald City. I love it. And you just hit on another reason I love this place...pure acceptance. Religious thoughts and expressions are accepted by non-believers as sincere expressions of love and hope rather than keep your religion out of my face. Politics is gentle and kind around here. Who would guess?

Vilma, many wonderful women have stumbled in through the same door. Your comments very much appreciated. Do join us on a regular basis.

Sue, who started this whole thing going is a true "character" and has kept us loving and laughing. Like so many others, she is trying to move on as much as possible, but does run to her family here when she's scared, lonely, or just misses everyone. Many along the way have done the same but they are forever part of us.

Hello ladies

It's been a long time since I have posted.  Wanted to thank you all for your prayers for my little Kenzie.  She is the 4 year old granchild that had her right kidney removed yesterday.  She has been having respiratory problems and gave the staff at Cooks Children's Hospital a good scare but she is doing a little better today.  She had  a rough night last night.  She isn't talking to anyone.  When the doctors push on her tummy she will just make facial grimaces.  I told her mom she will have to be Kenzie's voice until she gts a little more comfortable with what's going on.  I really miss her and want to be with her but my 2 year old grandchild has the flu so I'm here at home iwth him.  Donnie, my DH, is on call and we have all of the 4 granchildren, including Gabriel the 2 yo, and DH is on call with the hospital so I have to stay here. 

Peaches, my little lasa opsa went to spend a few days with Kenzie prior to her going into the hospital and she was so excited to be home.  Talk about all the love she gives, she makes me feel very important.  Cathi, I'm like you, I would love to have my little peaches to myself and no children on an everyday bases.  I now have the two oldest grandchildren living with me because their mom doesn't help with homework.  Talk about your world chaning!

Lisa - I have read your posts and Tony sounds wonderful. 

I am sorry for everyone's losses and illnesses.  I didn't read all the posts because there are so many pages.  I hope Sue, Mel and everyone are doing good.  AE, UB, Margo, Karen, Nancy, you know naming everyone and watching the kids shows, due to grandson, reminds me of romper room's magic mirror when the host would loook through the mirror and start naming names. LOL

Sending good thoughts and big hugs your way Leeza for the entire family. XOXOXOXOXOX You have a plate full my friend,  your much stronger than I.

So I have to share what my wonderful SIL did last evening,  I am not mad,  his heart I guess was in the right place. They took Landen for a walk last night and came across some ladies going dor to dorr collecting for BC support/research,  not sure what group,  well SIL told them of my BC and that he thought maybe I might benefit from a visit from them -  UGH.  Amanda just stood there knowing that I would not be overwhelmed with someone just knocking on my door to talk about BC,  she knows how I feel about wasting money on PINK stuff this time of year and that I know how or where to get help if and when I need/want it  but she said she couldn't say anything,  because she didn't know how to stop him from talking without offending the ladies,  he gave as much detail as he knew and my name and address,  as of yet no one has stopped by and I am glad,  I have you all and a group I joined at the cancer center here (don't go much anymore though).  But like I said his heart was in the right place. 

Leeza, it is like 'romper room' when we try to remember all the wonderful ladies who have been down this yellowbrick road to the Emerald City. Great news about your little Kenzie, although funny that she thought she was going to get new boobies like her Mamaw.

Cathi, if they do show up just be gracious (as you are anyway) your sil was trying to show the ladies that he knows the face of BC. Just remember 1 more week and your house will belong to you again.
