    Hi girls, guilty of a busy life and a little bit of lurking here.  I kind of feel "homeless" on BC.org now.  LOL  The Oct reconstruction thread is dead, I didn't go to Vegas and I didn't have an exhange so I don't belong on EC either. 

    Sandy, I saw the video and laughed my butt off.  I can just picture myself in that line-up, singing at the top of my lungs.  What a night that must have been!

    Laura, how are you recovering? 

    Tracey, are you off the HB express yet?

    Not much new here.  I have decided to put off the decision about fat grafts or nips for now.  I was feeling all kinds of pressure to do SOMETHING before year-end.  I have already met my insurance deductible of $5K, and that starts all over again Jan 1st.  But I really don't want to force any of these decisions.  I felt like I was doing it now just because of the money, and I'm really not ready.  So if it winds up costing us more money down the road, c'est la vie.  Doesn't health care SUCK!

    URGH INSURANCE CRAP IS STRESSING ME OUT!  I let my husband take care of all of it, but I get so damn emotional!  I was listening to him on the phone with them today...all morning in fact.  urgh...they didn't pay for one of my herceptin treatments because I had it on day 19 instead of the 20-21 day.  I guess it's some law that you cannot have it under 20 days.  Hubby is gonna throw it back in the lap of the onc office who scheduled it wrong.  I just feel like our financial problems are all my fault.  CANCER SUCKS!

    OK....gotta calm down here...Kristina please let us know how your consult went!!!!  WE'RE ALL DYING HERE!!!!

    Good to see you Mona

    We let the October 2008 topic die when October 2009 rolled around because it would have caused confusion for the 2009 sisters.  We did not want to do that.....

    I know what you mean about trying to get in under the out of pocket radar....I was wanting my nipps done before the end of 2008 because if this reason but my PS would not do them.  I had a revision in May and nipps in Aug.  so I still pretty much got the nipps for "free"....

    Check in more often.....I am not as active on the boards as I was......I was spending too much time on the PC so I had to cut back so I could get my life back.....for the past 2 wks I have worked out every morning....yahooooooo......not getting on the computer....

    take care

    I miss you too Laura

    There was a woman in TX that claimed to have breast cancer and even shaved her head like she was having chemo. The town had a benefit for her to raise money for medical bills.  She took the money and got  A BOOB JOB......I say rip those things out of her chest and cram them down her throat...how dare she....

    Hello My Sweet Sistas! Quickly checking in--Laura you are so sweet to keep tabs on us!

    Reading several of these posts I just want to say that we are really blessed to have eachother and I feel so lucky to have found this group of friends. There is nothing quite like the kindness and smile of a friend. Susie honey I am so sorry you lost a friend. I just lost one of the closest friends I ever had- 49 years young- her heart gave out too. I am still trying to adjust to not hearing her voice every day. We worked together so it is such a constant memory of the void left without her. She is dearly missed. Tracey- Many prayers for your friend. You know there is supposed to be an order to things in life and a 28 year old mom fighting for her life just isn't right. Is there anything this group can do in addition to our loving prayers?

    I miss you ladies very much. Just three more weeks of the insanity in my travel schedule and then I have my exchange.....
