Fuzzy's Romp Room

SAS and anyone else who has been following my posts that have to do with my amputation and revision.... Had appointment with surgeon this morning and the incision looks good. Healing this time. They took the stitches out and replaced with sterri strips.. Keeping my fingers crossed that it will stay closed this time and continue to heal and shrink...

Sounds good Cindy. In your pocket ridergirl.

Fuzzy. Sounds like you are doing well. Funny you should mention 2 years ago. I found out I had breast cancer 2 years ago last Monday the 3rd... I tried not to think about it on that day though. I have had so much else going on that I actually sometimes forget about the cancer.. Didn't think 2 years ago I would ever be able to say that!!!!



Glad to know that it is SAS's computer that is being fixed and that she is ok.....



I am available to anyone who needs me in their pocket....



Cindy

Awww Fuzzy I think you are pretty incredible too!!!!!!! Glad you are so pleased with your surgery....

Wonderous women, I do not deserve thee. I always feel so much happier after I have visited this comfortable, pleasant place.  But I am a litle confused lately and this worries me greatly.  i HAVE to get those X-rays of my head.  You see, only husband knows, and I almost didn't want to tell you all.  When I had my CT scan to see how the cancer was, I was clear.  Just one problem.  Of the four places breast cancer goes, the brain is one. So, I asked the nurse I was discussing my CT scan with, what were the signs if cancer had gone there.  Falling down.  Oh, I pushed it to the side like it was nothing. But I am SO haunted by it.  You see, as I've said I fall all the time now, I've also been unbelievably confused, I AM going to get one of four-legged walkers,and I used to be quite bright, wanted to finish writing my short stories so I can pass along a few amazing stories so people will know what I know, and I'm finding whole chunks of memory just... gone.

Now, it's possible it's this, or that, or the other, and I DO NOT want to go to the hospital, but I'll have to, and I've put off going to a dermatologist becuz of the melanoma I had in my boob, one of the two exceedingly scary cancers, inflammatory being the other one.  Makes the invasive ductal carcinoma seem like nothing.  Now, I have been taking some very heavy-duty medicines, so it's probabl just me geting used to it, and thank heavens Richard realized the mistake he made criticizing me for being so mixed up and not driving too well.  We've sorted out the driving thing so I'm safe.  But I cannot live with someone who makes me feel uncomfortable in my own home.  But thank goodness husband is much nicer now, particulaly as I had pointed out to him what a useless piece of shit he's been. Hahahaha.

Let's see, Fuzzy, I cannot recall what my general question No. 347 might have been ... hahahha, but I can't remember much stuff nohow.  Oh, gosh, I cannot tell you how mixed up I've been.  I actually pissed off my mother the other day, and she NEVER gets mad at anyone.  I sent her an email and told her that she and Dad missed adopting me out when they had the chance.  Smile.

But I've been doing some more daydreaming, girls.  I just need to begin getting in shape, finish tidying the house, and then Richard and I just might get something out of the few years I got left.  Oooops, there I go, dying again.  And I had just been so happy.  Well, I reckon we're all more than a tad overly sensitive.  I MUST come up with a tattoo for my forehead or something.  I still like that button I have, "Ask me if I care."  I don't think the Good Lord would appreciate it.  Maybe, "I like flowers."  That way people will send me some.  What I REALLY need is a good kick in the head by that mule I keep out back.

Gotta go.  Hope everyone is healing up.  By the way, after I loudly argued with my doctor in the hospital about my port, when I came out of anesthesia and got to a mirror, I asked the doc, "What in the world did you guys do to my neck? It looks like you tried to murder me in at least a dozen different ways!?!"  There was some reason, but to this day, well over a year now, I can still see some bruising.

Oh, anbody seen "Life of Pi" yet at the movie theater?  I'm dying to see it.  Love all of you. GG 

I have been just lurking lately. I had the operation last week, check u on Monday and chemo yesterday. My blood levels are great. Surprised the physician's assistant. I got the zometa yesterday and asked if they could give it too me in a half hour instead of 15 minutes to help with the pain. They did. It worked. I am the second patient who asked for that. Today's pain is minimal compared to last month's.

Fuzzy - I am so happy that your are pleased with your surgery. We will have to talk more. I will be having the same surgery on my left breast some time. Not sure when. Keep notes.

Ridergirl - I'm in your pocket. I'm bringing gingerale. I bought muself a case of it and take a couple when I go in for chemo. I drink some whenI get home too. It helps break up any indigestion I have. How much is 20 ml?

Crog - Glad to hear that you are healing better.

Dogeyed - Sending you great big hugs. Now since 90% of my hair is gone, I would like a tattoo saying, "Bring me wine!".

My head is pounding, my vision is weird - I can't see my computer screen with or without my glasses. I'll be taking it easy for the rest of the day. I'll be napping, drinking water, going to the bathroom and eating whatever appeals to me. I'll be checking in later.

Big Hugs!

Alyson - me either. Could it possibly be the chemo I had yesterday? Or am I just plain ole lazy? Maybe its both.

Dogeyed, I saw The Life of PI a few days ago. The photography was brilliant and the story line quite interesting. I enjoyed it. Actually enjoyed is a misnomer but it was definitely worth seeing.

Sorry, I was trying to post a cute take on the Night before Christmas wishing all of you wonderful ladies a Happy Holiday.  I'm on a Mac so I don't have a right click.  If I can figure it out, I'll try again.  Thoughts are the same though.  Just finished getting the gifts boxed and ready for shipping to Japan to son and his family.

I'm taking my foster cat to an adoption event today. It will be really hard if he's adopted; we're so fond of him. We have to keep reminding ourselves of our reasons to not adopt (age, want to travel, no one to take a cat if something happens that we can't care for him). If he found a home with kids or another cat to play with, he'd prefer it there. DH wanted to know if I want to attend a party if he's adopted. I said no, I want to go home and cry. He needs a special home. He's black, large, and FIV+, which are all barriers to adoption. He's also our favorite of all our foster cats (except the torti that we did adopt).
