Thinking Out Loud.....

Hi Everyone..........new thread for me.........After reading so many of the threads I guess I'm one of the lucky ones..................I have 18 grandchildren........and twin great-grand daughters.........I was diagnosed with my BC in the same hospital that they were born in..........I was diagnosed on Feb., 15th by a BS who without even doing the biopsy said "this tumor is malignant".   He was that sure.......On Feb. 21st I had the biopsy which confirmed what he already knew..........My twin baby girls were born on March 3rd, and as I sat in the waiting room with my son, I thought, I want to remember this hospital for the good that happened here,not the bad..............On March 14th I had my surgery, and if you can get good news about cancer.......I did.........when the pathology came back the tumor was small 1.1cm. lumpectomy, no node involvement, and clear margins...............Yes it was good news...........but when are they going to find a vaccine that all women can get so that we don't have to deal with this disease...........Finding BC while the tumor is small is great,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but how about not having to ever have another mammogram, repeat mammogram,,, biopsy, and surgery............Lets work toward that...........Less money spent on radiation...........chemo drugs..........use all those dollars to find a vaccine...............Not in my time I'm sure (I'm 75), but maybe one day my grandaughters.......great-grandaughters will not have to say "well at least the tumor is small", instead they can say "thank God we have a vaccine now, so we don't have to go through what my grandmother went through..............hugs ladies.

Welcome ducky

I also had my children, surgery and chemo in the same hospital.

I look at it as they saved my life there.

OK...I do not like plain oatmeal. Even with blueberries and banana its not going down right.

I'm going back to my original microwaveable pouches where I can enjoy my breakfast.

I'm normal now just finished coffee and I will be leaving soon.

you all have a good day.

HUUUUUUGS♥

Yes Sheila.  Be careful!

You could always top the oatmeal with brown sugar.  I used to do that as a kid.  Yum!

Glad to hear he's better today Sheila.  Hope he's even better tomorrow!

Happy to hear your Dad is back at home and doing well too Deb!

I am happy to hear the dads are doing better and that Sheila has remained upright while walking   The pinched nerve is still a bother but I think it is improving. Acupuncture and self medication are working wel.

This weekend my daughter is in a wedding and we are invited as well.  So today we have done nails, rub on tan, haircut, shoes, bridal lunch, rehearsal, rehearsal dinner and tomorrow is hair and weddng.  Of course the wedding is about 45 minutes north and today I found out they are shutting down the interstate we need to use to get there so it will be a bit of a hassle.  It has been pounding rain today so driving was the pits.

My friend from MA that lives here is also invited. She just called to ask if she should wear her f me boots.  

Is painting done Linda?

Is daughter in Manhattan driving the Uhaul, Deb?

Chris, you are quiet today.  Are you feeling ok now?

Blondie -- what are you doing this weekend?

Sheila - we don't hear much about BBB these past few weeks, is everything ok?

On my way to have more BW done, just to check the BUN, Cloride and Calcium.

Yes DD did drive through NYC/Manhattan to drop the U'Haul off.  Right now they are probably shopping.  I posted on FB.  She says she would not want to do that again anytime soon, LOL.

As for my Dad, no news is good news, I haven't seen him in a few days.  With the way his health is I have to expect the unexpected. 

I am surprized my vein in my right arm is still working. Four times so far this year it has been stabbed.   Got a lot done today, BW, Walfart and Groceries.  Tomorrow I want to look for some type of chair pad for my Dad's wheelchair so his bum doesn't get sore. 

I hope you feel better soon Linda♥ 

Thanks Deb.  I hope your bloodwork is just fine.  When will you know?

Deb my annual check up is at the end of this month.

i hope everything is back to normal range.

Remember Dee used to visit us?  Wonder where she's been and hope she's ok!
