You know you're a cancer patient when....

 All so true!  It just made us smile at a stressful time in our lives.  Today, she's enjoying her heir and I'm enjoying my hair.

LadyM maybe your son was acting out that stupid TV commercial for paper towels that makes me cringe everytime I see it.  You know the one where the kid shakes up a bottle of soda and sprays the kitchen and his mom LOLs and sprays him back... they trash the kitchen but then she cleans up... paper towels to the rescue.  Don't you have magic paper towels at your house?  LOL!!

Texas, reading about your kids makes me feel young again. I hope you are writing it all down for them because you won't remember it all. I thought I would and I didn't remember. So cute, so innocent.

YKYACP when your PS asks what you are going to do for Halloween and you say you are just going to flash your scarred foobs at people. Reality is always so much scarier than fiction.

when dropping things becomes you're new thang!  Thanks neuropathy!  My DH and I went shopping to get a dress I put on hold.  When I left the dressing room, I dropped the hanger.  My DH says, "Was that you?"  because every day I drop something!!!

I've seen that commercial--the first time I was apalled and I don't even have kids!  I could just picture several of my friends' children doing just that, but the maternal reaction would not be to pull out the sink sprayer and spray the kid, and certainly would not be smiling, either! 

YKYACPW--you are having a great Saturday, getting things done and destressing from a busy and stressful work week and suddenly are so tired you fall asleep in the middle of typing a sentence in an e-mail to a friend, and are scared when you wake up b/c you are still sooooo tired you can hardly move. 

Adey - here's an idea: use the foot of an old clean pair pf panty hose or knee-highs as a stocking cap.  Poke a hole in the top for the stem to protrude from.  Protect your head under the stem with a soft cloth or layers of gauze.  Have fun!

When you stop at the grocery store to run in and grab some milk, and can't remember how to put the car in park. What a scary feeling. I briefly considered calling my husband to ask, when thank goodness, the memory returned.

YKYACPW-  You start worrying about the thousands of women driving, parking, shopping, cooking, filling our prescriptions etc... who have chemo brain and the world seems like a very dangerous place!

When you keep checking to make sure that your prothesis is in the right place, and often it isn't.

AStorm - love the one about the cancer card not working! We must be doing something right so our kids aren't living or seeing our fears!

Oh I know that commercial as well, my first thought was I wish I could program my parental controls on the TV to respond to horrible commercials! 

YKYACPW  you come out of your bmx, you started with 42DD and are left with a computer mouse on one side and a flattened softball on the other. Lopsided...AGGGHHH...was suppose to be even...the longer I have to live with this mess, the crankier I get. Thank goodness I get it taken care on next month.

Edited to add: Has anyone else had this problem? The ONE and only thing I asked the dr for was to be EVEN when I came out. I can tell you I was very disappointed when I woke up and saw what was left behind.

...when - and if this isn't one of the dumbest - after charging the battery on your RV, you want to let it run for a bit.  So, you hop in, start her up and figure you will let her run for a bit.  While you are waiting, you mow the lawn, rake the leaves, finish planting the rest of the spring bulbs, hose down the siding and suddenly hear the dog going nuts in the house.  You open the door to find all the alarms going off - ahhh, you forgot to shut off the RV and the exhaust is right at the back door.  Running around like a nut to open windows and all the doors, turning fans on, letting the dog out, shutting off the RV and finally hitting the button to quite the alarm, head for the front porch to hang out while the house airs out.  Well, the alarms starts again so back in I go and hit the button again.  We are just going to hang out on the porch until the thing doesn't squeal anymore.  My neighbor calls and I told her what happened so she said to come on over and hang out - about 1/2 there, the dang alarm starts again.  And now with the doors and windows all open, you can hear it all over.  I just kept going and figured once it stopped, it would be safe to go back into the house. 

Of course, I was the laugh of the neighborhood for the duration of the weekend.  I am sooo getting used to that!  LOL

I actually think I did that!!!

You but two huge pill sorters to keep track of your supplements.  (c:
