Calling all TNs

Yes, I am a Houston Texan fan - they won last night!  I believe they are supposed to be good this year as long as everyone can stay healthy!  Going to be a fun season!

Titan--- my son made that when he was little, and I always loved it. But, silly you, don't we *all* have skeletons "on" our closet? You know me, always the jokester!

Sailing..... maybe I'll drop in and post more pics now & then.

Michelle_ we are loving the lobster! My 12 year old insist on eating it daily. He ordered lobster pizza yesterday at lunch. I am headed out to brunch soon, I hope I can get a bowl of lobster bisque, to enjoy on this gloomy day. Kid is in the heated outdoor pool with dad. I enjoying the first little bit of alone time on days making memories...

When we went to Maine a couple of years ago, I ate lobster rolls every single day!  Oh, and the blueberry pie was a regular thing, too!!

I am a HUGE football fan.  Sunday in our house growing up was in front of the TV and my mom would make sure we had Sunday dinner before the late game.  I grew up as a Browns fan - my Dad is a die hard.  Poor guy......they always suck.  But they're fun to watch.  My brother moved to Indy for University and so now we're all COLTS fans.  He has seasons tickets so my DH and I get down a few times a season to watch.  We're going to the COLTS and Green Bay game in October - it's the Breast Cancer game.  Should be a great time. 

Heidi..so happy to hear from you and thank you so much for bringing us back up for your great news...3 years is sooooo awesome!!!  We all cannot wait to post the same.

My baby girl is  20 today.  Last year she got lost in the shuffle of my DX.  She is such a wonderful gift and I am thankful for her everyday. 

Cocker ...we are all here holding you and your daughter.  Hoping for good news from you tomorrow

Funny story about lobster rolls.  First A/C chemo treatment and DH offers to go get us lunch.  I've read that you shouldn't eat your absolutely favorite foods during chemo, and most probably not while you're being infused, lest you develop a nasty association between that food and chemo!  He loves D'Angelo's subs and he thinks he can get away with going there because they have lobster rolls.  So off he goes, comes back with his steak and cheese fat bomb and a lobster roll for me.  So there I sat, eating a lobster roll while my chemo nurse pushed the red devil!!!   I couldn't eat another one until well after I finished all my treatment.  It's a wonder he didn't kill it for life!

Christina - thanks for posting that link...it sure sounds hopeful! 

Linda - so sweet of you to say that!  And yes, there's a reason why we had our kids young.  Oh my, I can't imagine raising a child at this point in my life, but then, it's great that you are able to do it. 

Yes, treatment sucks, but it beats the alternative at this point! 

Angelisa - oh my, that's not good at all!!!  I'm sure that made the local newscast!  And congrats on getting to the two year mark!

Cocker - wishing nothing but good news for you and your daughter tomorrow.

OBXK - don't miss out on blueberry muffins, too!

I read everyday but rarely post.



I love fried lobster with garlic&peper. It's Chinese menu. I had 6 week seminar at MIT,Boston years ago. Got the train,subway from Kendall station to China town on weekend. My good memories there, New England.



I'll have 5 more rounds radiotherapy. Finished on 20 Aug. Now start being exhausted.



Thank you for everyone posting.



Michelle - Your post is my inspiration. I admire your courage. Support me to have a silent mind. Hope you get good results on all your treatment.



CS- Wishing you get good news..



Titan-Thank you for starting this thread, good job. Your consistant running is my inspiration too.



My thought with all of you.

Nuan,

Glad to hear from you.

You are getting close to the end of your treatments!  I started getting really tired right at the end also and stayed that way for a while after.  It took me some time also to adjust after all the treatments stopped - I felt afraid because I wasn't doing anything to stop the cancer anymore but after a while I started to feel more comfortable.

Bak, what kind of chi do you have- longhaired or short? 

Hi Ladies

I'm back at the lodge for more zapping. Two weeks to go then back to normal, I hope.  My beloved girl went to the specialist today and he said he would be very surprised if the lump turned out to be cancer but he is sending her to have an aspiration just to be sure.  So thanks to all of you ladies for your good wishes.  Her appointment is this coming Friday and then a weeks wait until the results come through so still keeping my fingers crossed.

Heidi - really great news on three years out and great that you are enjoying your normal life.  Way to go girl.  You enjoy it cause you deserve it.

LRM216 - good to see you popping in again. You look much too young to be a grandmother.

Karen - enjoy your holiday in Maine.  Hopefully the weather will improve for you.

Mags - my two girls are wonderful gifts as well. Makes me wonder why I got to be so lucky to have such a wonderful family. 

Titan - I've been watching the olympics as well. Does my old heart good to see all the countries of the world coming together so happily for sport. Each of the games was so wonderful to watch.

cc4npg - what a picture. So nice of them to pop in!!.

Nuan - only five more to go, yay.  I have got nine to go then back to my home and hopefully normal life.

Bak94 - your dogs sound lovely.  I could go on and on about Chloe as well but it wouldn't be as complimentary as yours lol,  though she did give me a beautiful kiss before I could move my face this morning when I left home so perhaps I still love her lol.

Have a good night ladies.  Hoping you are all well and keeping well. Big hugs. Annie

Angelisa- so good to "see" you!! Glad you are well-Happy 2 Year!! I hope no one was injured in your drive-thru remodel! LOL!

Cocker- I am sending good thoughts to your daughter! I can't wait to hear what you did to torture the old bag at the lodge this week!

Linda- good to "see" you too! My kids go back to school on Wed. There is always so much to do! They will be in 5th and 1st grade this year- where does the time go!!

Bak......I'm not back on A/C, instead I am on ixempra.  That may change today as I should find out if I qualify for the trial.  Although, I still have my cough, and last night I developed the most amazing pain in my chest, upper right when I cough or hold something heavy with my right arm.   I mean, it made me burst into tears.  I think more because it scares me than is unbearable.  I'm usually not such a woosey for pain.  This whole thing is just starting to freak me out.  I feel like I am losing my grip on the stay positive attitude.  I am really worried this is the beginning of the end for me ladies.  Something just does not feel right.  I will be requesting a scan from the good doc this afternoon.  WTF?!

Thanks for letting me vent.  I will update you al later.  Have a wonderful day!  Off to water the flowers and feed the outdoor kitties.

Love to you all!  

cocker and mandy ((((((hugs))))))

inmate ((((((hugs))))))

Oh inmate, I am so sorry you are having this pain. I am sure it is very scary and I wish I could take that away. You are so allowed to have the feelings you have, whatever they are. (((Hugs)))
