Checkum sure knows the way to my heart!!!

LMBO!!!!!

She asked for it!

Oh dear!!! What is Checkum going through?? Not a recurrence, surely? She is a FB 'friend' and I haven't caught any news lately.....

Great first post purpleecho!! We know a lot about you now. Have you ever read books from a Christian book store? They are wonderful stories about life and give great insights into the teachings of Christ. Try to find some in your local library even. They are worth the hunt.

How wonderful to be able to share the joy of music with your son. I can't sing for beans either, but I LOVE to!!!! The louder the music the less you can hear me....so let it rip!

Hmmm, your doctor was a bit dramatic!!! DCIS is the easiest breast cancer to treat as it is all contained within the ducts. Once the ducts are all removed, so is the cancer.

I think that's neat that your son wants to be a preacher. I always wanted to be one, but in my youth, women NEVER were preachers....sigh.

SoCalLisa I loved your pictures.  I loved always when I see the air ballon in the air. I do not see then very rare here in little town of ohio. I love flowers also, I us to always work hard in my 2 flower gardens in my front yard. Then I got to a point I could my other illness was getting worse. I could not bend over, so I would try to just work on my knees and then I could not get up without help. So I give all my bulbs to my neighbor. and just grass all in the front yard. I have PPMS in a power wheel chair. I do not want to get to that. When I was totaled I had breast cancer, they did tell me that it was in my ductal. That the right one really had lot and was full. I did not really seem concerned about trying to get cured. I looked at it this way, I am 56 years old. I have a husband and son. I have so much other battles I am fighting on for the rest of my life. I just wanted it removed so it would not get any farther in my body. My dad had cancer that took his life. My mom had something wrong with her right side breast for many years and asked me what it could be. I told mom she should have a mammogram, but she refused. My parents we very old fashion. That was fine, best the was the best mom and dad in the whole world. So when we went in to talk to the doctor on what was going to be done. I total doctor to just remove it. I did not talk it over with my family at all. My son was there and right at my side. When I told the doctor that, Brian grabbed my hand and give a big squeeze and a big smile on his face. The doctor said are you sure. I told him yes. Then they did my surgery 2 weeks later. My husband & Brian was so glad with what I did. Brian knows that I have a limit on my life, and talked to me and thanked me. Brian said that he is not ready to lose me at all. So if I was younger and not battle my life illness I would have maybe went a different way. Nice to talk with you see you around.

SoCalLisa, yes this sounds like a really great group to get into. Brian is my mircale child. I had 7 miscarriage. Then it was when I was 30 before I found out I was pregnant. But I was in a car wreck a car ran the stop sign, I seen the car was not slowing down. I hit my brakes and blowing my horn. Then it was me seeing my car in the passenger door of the car. Then when I did open my eyes one of the ladies from where I worked was standing at my door. Told me to keep my head on the headrest. Then they came and took me to the hospital. They asked if I could be pregnant I told them I do not think so. They did 14 xrays on me. The time of the month did not come I just thought it was my nerves. Then it never came the next month went to my doctor and he said that I could pregnant. He ran a test on me and came back and said that I was. But was very concerned because of all the xrays. He told me I could termante it right then. I looked at him and said  What do you think I am going to do. I will have this baby.  Then he told me what all could be wrong with the baby. I said you are not going to change my mind. So he was very much telling I could not do this and no medication but the vitamins. So Brian was born on the exact day he was to be. When Brian came out, the doctor was so happy, He has 10 perfect fingers 10 perfect toes and a perfect body all the way. I was so happy, God was with us the whole time. I am so very proud of my wonderful son.  I always took Brian to church with me and I had some days after Brian was 10 years old he would always just walk to church. Brian has always gone to church. That is the reason I call Brian my mircale child. He want to go to college to be a preacher. So I paid for Brian to go. Right now Brian has been a Youth Minister in a church and married a wonderful young lady. It has almost been 2 years. Janeen's dad is a Minister. So Brian has been such a son I am very happy of and very proud of.  Brian does not live real close to me but it only takes 40 minutes to get to his apt and church. Brian has always said   Mom if you ever need any help and not feeling really good and need me you call at any time day or night. I will be their for you. Yes I am so very proud of my mircale child Brian. He also started  me playing guitar I always loved to hear Brian play his guitar, at times Brian will bring his guitar and we play together. It is really wonderful, of course I not as good playing as Brian is. Sorry for going on and on. I will see you later.

I thought it would be nice to keep this thread going.Here are some photos of our latest escape.

This one was all about enjoying the spoils of Newfoundland.

My DH took this in BarHarbour Maine.

I like your house picture better than Bar Harbour!! Next time, get more foreground and less sky. If you move the picture up your screen to cut off the sky, you'll see what I mean. It gets rid of those houses up the hill and makes the coloured houses oh, so much more important!

Hi JO! Yeah for the 8 years!!!!! I know a few still come to BCO & I see them posting on other threads. Some I am friends with on Facebook & I keep in contact with. a few have had a few scares but they weathered those storms & are doing good.



As for for me I was one who didn't have BC, but hung around for waiting & the friends I made here. Until this past February when I found something in the left breast where I was biopsied 4 years ago. In May 4 years almost to the day I was DX with the beast! Some how I always knew I wouldn't get away Scott free! My DX is in my signature line. All done with RADS now & hoping it doesn't make a return visit.

It's good to see you popping in to say Hi!
