Hi Veggy,
New to this whole thing, will be starting chemo soon.
Just wanted to tell you that following the woman around the store was brillant! You did make me smile and laugh. First in a few months! Bless you for that!

Veg- I got a smirk from that one as well. (c:

DUNES, I just happened to jump back here and caught your reply to me today and caught up a little bit on your situation. I really DID miss several of your posts and I'm always careful to read back if a miss something, but I HAVE been a tad sick
That said, I think you should NOT go anywhere in the snow, and also when it comes to assessments, unless you want to RISK being jammed up in the hospital and can't get out for days, DON'T GO. BEST thing to do is either ignore the call, that's fine, weather is screwing everything up anyway. OR if you decide to take the call, you can tell them you can't go in the snow and therefore request to schedule something for next week (to give you time to figure if you want to go to whatever this "assessment" thingy is).
I don't kow if these are hospital people, but hon, WE hear you, and if you're feeling really rough around the edges, and I KNOW it's freezing there if it is here in NC, then NO WAY can you get the bird thing sraight, and if they ARE HOSPITAL folk, they are going to jam you up just like they did me. So, what to do?
I will NEVER go to the frikkin hospital again unless I'm unconcious. Whomever has give you ANY treatment in the past in a private setting for all this stuff, THAT is who you can go see if YOU NEED to see someone for whatever. So,this iis what this boils down to, aside from carrots for your new bunny rabbit you will have probably within a couple weeks (we had two and we did not cage them, but we "child-proofed" several parts of the house,put dutch doors on the kitchen with litter boxes in there, they sort of get close to it...SMILE), but that's just my insight stuff that I see. But all people have stuff they wind up doing. I just see the rabbit.
Oooooops, I got off the subject. Ummmm. If you need something specific, as you kow, most counties have "free clinics" where you go downtown as a walk-in patient, bring your very lasw W-2 OR your retireent info, so you wo't have to pay for it. If you are in pain, they willl not give opiates at all, but Lyrica is really pretty good, but quite expensive, but at the clinic, you get meds right there, and they are always discounted. Neuronton is its generic cousin, upset my tummy, but does knockout pain, little bit sleepy for both, whcih is good. Butif it's because your thinking is tangled, hey, an extremely tastey bottle of wine (less than $20 if you choose carefully) but NO MORE than just one glass, will really make you feel great and you can get online and goof and pick out a good movieon TV tonite. If you're with your Mom and you're going nuts, go check into a room-service VERY decent hotel with inside hallways and do same.
I think i covered every possible scenario, but if you're still around, i'll hit back in about 20 mins, but then I will probably have to go. You're feeling typical. You have been doing unbelieavably well with your activities, really has blown me away but see, the problem is, NOBOD can go nowheres nor do nothin cuz of snow. But unless you need some sort of tranqs or pain killers, just chill out at home. But if you DO need something spcific ith the meds, you can go as a walk-in at your local county clinic, ask to see a regular doc, and tell them with the snow, your doc is not available, show the your bottle, and they SHOULD give you maybe even a week' worth of stuff to get you by.
Come back at me. I'll be here util no longer than 3. I wrote this rapidly, mstakes GG

DUNES, if you walk down to store, if you happen to see a black & white rabbit, or might be another color, just pick him up likea puppy dog,carry hi m under your arm like a natural born little-dog-inthe-pockiebook personage, screw the store keeper. Main thing is don't jut SIT THERE and dwell on crap. ALWAYS better to accept for today ad tomorrow, do your usual stuff and add in as much fun things as usual (but NOT TOO MUCH), the bunny will need lots of straightening out but basically they lay around and turn over their salad plate and only ONE raisin or dandelion, and you will become the mommmy. SMILE SMILE SMILE.

As far as the sharing of phone numbers goes, I'd be happy to share mine. I don't have free long distance, so I would have to be mindful of outgoing calls. However, apparently a lot of people have plans where it does not cost them anything or much to make long-distance calls. I'm in Baltimore, MD; and my number is 410-288-6626. I know I whine a lot (that's just where I am for now) but I can usually pull myself out of my own asshole long enough to help encourage someone else -- or just talk. I know I have lost a lot of friends (who of course could never have really been friends if they would dump me at such a time) and I know others of you have had similar experiences. So, I'm just throwing it out there.

Where are my peanuts??? He comes to my window every morning for his Peanuts!!!!

Dunesleeper - how about skype - its free and we can chat all day

Gma, you're so lucky being surrounded by nature. It must be very peaceful.

Sassy I think we should turn Grannydukes and GG loose on those cops in TX.
Sassy and ptdreamers - I absolutely totally forgot all about that xray today. Been one of those. Tried to make skunkie breakie and needed to wash knife, but four tries to wash it and I kept doing stuff w it and not washing it. My day began with my first words OH COME ON! To which I found out I still had my voice after a coughing spell last night which made me want to cough phlegm but nothing doing, instead that brought up fluids and I coughed and gagged so hard I drew blood from my throat. But then it was over and I felt much relieved. Yep, I don't have pneumonia, but something was in there last night, and gone all day.
I will call the MO and radiology tomorrow. It is all very curious. Aggravating after the Indy MO sat me down and showed me where the lung nodules were growing from the beginning, and now they are where?
Gail - I learned that a long time ago, maybe because I am paranoid, so I don't reveal much. You made me laugh so hard. Go w the program or over the nurse's desk. And SHUT THYSELF UP. Then you found your husband, omg, you made me cry then.
Dunes, the mods will probably delete your post, I think we cannot post numbers except in PMs, BUT I wrote it down already!!!! yeah!
Sassy, thanks for the calls, I will get to you when I remember. Can you tell I HATE To answer my telephone?
Today my DD told me I need to move where I can use hemp oil. Am going over the OMG TFTCFS now.
-
He all, Veggy's in the basement , we need all the help we can get on OMG TFACFS. Several are working to get her out. That damn basements a scary place to be.
Dunes good luck with all the things on your list today. Keep looking for the positive. Hold on to the your water thoughts they are really beautiful.
Gma my mom use to have a Cardinal and a squirrel that would make such a racket outside when she wasn't on time with their nuts. It was a hoot the Cardinal would peck on the window and the squirrel would scratch the screen door.

Kathindc - We are blessed - I lived 50 years in a small town that grew into a big selfish city and you didn't talk to your own neighbors. Kids were stressed all the time, my son got death threats from kids in 4th grade.. It turned into a bad place to live. Hubby got high cholesterol, high BP and diabetes - We decided it was time to sell the house and leave - God blessed us with a Job for DH in this town we live in now. He lost it 2 years later but we had a beautiful place to live, so we do what we can. DH and I both have jobs now. We are having a hard time financially but as I said earlier, I just got financial aide approved and all my back hospital surgeries, LE therapy and sleep study were paid for
.. Now, enjoy my home a little longer and work, work, work. :-P Next morning picture:
These are last year's daffodils but it looks like they are starting to come up now! Hopefully, as beautiful as they were last year :-)

You know - If any of you come to Oregon - you can sit on my porch swing and retreat here. We are set up for company anytime you all want to show up!
-
Gma ---to be blessed with the changing views from one venue. Breath taking. Yes, I saw that you said that this view was why you bought the house. Yes, I would do the same:)))
Hey all, Dunes put her phone number out there, that says allot. She's had allot of shit for the last year but the manure started piling up since January. Now most haven't had the opportunity to stand next to a manure pile, Essa has I'm sure. Manure can mean different things. To the farmer it's one thing, to us city folks different story. The Farmer sees it as gold, us city folks just see it as smelly shit. Opinion formed as a child visiting uncles farm. So, when someone risks putting out their number, understand what the message is.

The Skype idea is a good one. I have never used it, but I can do some research and probably figure it out. Kewl.
-
Sassi.... just wanted to tell you.... I tried using this Tea Tree salve on my hands.... It really helped a lot! Then I bought more, and mixed it with my Shea butter, and use it all the time... Still wear the "moisturizing gloves" whenever I can, especially all night. My hands and fingers are a LOT better right now....
That eczema just comes and goes.... but it's better at least for now.
-
Dune, I have Skype on iPod and computer. All you have to have is a computer with microphone. Download is at the Skype website. With the grandsons I do video , but with my friend in London, we just chat. And it's Free! Unless you do conference video. But if all of us get it we can have a Chat party! I would love it!

Well, I alientated the last friend I had in this neighborhood: the guy I share a wall with. He wouldn't return my calls where I was obvioustly distressed and wanting to know if that guy who was staying there was going to be styaing there forever. After several days of calling him and having him not pick up and not return my calls I left him a message that I wanted my key back. (We had the keys to each other's houses.) He still would not respond. I finally said if he didn't get back to me I would have to call the police. Anyway, long story short, that's what I did. So I have my key back. Hopefully he didn't make a copy. It has been relatively quiet over there since then, which is nice. Then is started getting noisy about an hour ago and it sent my nerves reeling again. I have some sort of virus. It is day 4 of it now I think. I don't feel as sick but when I go downstairs and try to do anything I get really weak. It's a shame. It is such a beautiful day. But between feeling weak and dizzy and then that girl's loud mouth, I opted to come back up here. I sure hope the xanax kicks in and I can sleep for a couple more hours. Then I will get up and try to stay up until a normal bed time, regardless of what noise or harassment comes from next door.
Oh! And while I was downstairs I checked my mail. There was a letter from my attorney. The Nurse Nancy bitch won't fill out the forms my attorney needs. She says I have to make an appointment. I've been going there every month since December. WTF????

Passive aggressive nurses are the last thing you need - please take good care of you x x

I am having a bit of a difficult evening, keep on thinking about death and finding my heart racing - not sure which is coming first but not feeling good......
I started to write my list "what I have lost " as a result of BC and stopped as all I could think was everything once I had a few things on paper.......and that is how it feels, I know some things in my life are still the same BUT they don´t feel the same anymore..............but I will finish my list.....heart is pounding again now....
-
I'm sorry Lily. I'm really really sorry. It really sounds like you feel a lot like me, and I'm so close to being done with it. I'm not anxious about it very much anymore.
-
OMG...3 pages behind and i cannot remember shit....except what those bastards did to our Veggy!!!!!Oh how i wish i was with her when that happened.next time i go to pa I hope we can see each other again..and go to have lunch.I miss you but im glad to see your personality hasnt changed.
I am goin for my tummy surgery on tues.the 12th.10am.before my internist gave me clearance i had to go to a cardio dr.2 leaky valves along with a murmur.nice.....i asked him (rather told him)damn those rads on the left side.i know thats where this bullshit came from.she said there is not much evidence to prove that statement but wouldnt look me in the eye.He gave me clearance for the surgery and told me to come back in 3 mos.like hell i will.this is where a 2nd.opinion comes in.WTF.now the heart.what else are we getting from those damn rads????? I never wanted to do it but my entire family was screamin and carrying on so i gave in....We will never know if it came from it but in my books thats where it did.

xoxoxo grannydukes

Grannydukes, if you and veggy get together and would like a 3rd person to add to the party, let me know when you will be doing it. I can't imagine that Veggy is too terribly far from me. It would certainly be worth the drive.
I called my brother and he has said it would be fine for me to come live with him, so as soon as I am feeling up to it (hopefully tomorrow) I will get back to seriously getting rid of stuff and packing things up. Unlike my mother, he doesn't have an aversion to my baby (Peaches).
It's amazing how much easier it is to get rid of my acupuncture notes now that I am officially disabled. I know there is no way I will ever practice again, so WTF. I wonder if they have any decent breast cancer care centers around Atlanta. I wonder if I give a fuck.
-
Thinking about you Granny..........
-
Oh, there's lots of bam bam bump bump pound pound crap coming from next door. It usually does pick up late in the evening. And of course, the girlfriend's big mouth. If I could learn to tune all that out, I might be able to stay here. But then the Spring and Summer will be here and I will be out in my yard working in my garden, and they will be out there and I will have to go through another period of trying to adjust to both hearing and seeing them. I guess it is possible, but I just don't see how I can keep dealing with these aggravations while they take away medicine that calms my nerves. I just don't see how that is supposed to happen. So. They win. Maybe I will like Atlanta.

Dunes-Its up to Veggy.She is the driver.im about 1/2 hr.away from her.PA is a foreign country to me.My GD will drive me where ever i need to go.im dumping this all in veggys lap.ha.She is gonna kill me...oh good maybe she will come here and put me out of my misery so i wont have to do this frikkin surgery!!!!!
I have been to MD.to a restaurant called Chazz.Its Chazz Palmiteris restaur.and my neices husband took by GF and I there.it took us from NJ.around 2 hrs.It was beautiful to see that statue when you first get there.Thats all i know.I think its the statue for traveling.
-
Granny, take care. In your pocket. Will say extra prayers for you.
Dunes, know what you mean by noisy neighbors. Have your tried noise canceling headphones? My neighbor on the other side of the noisy one has to use them because she is so sensitive to noise. I am so sorry you are having problems while having to deal with bc. Life can suck on so many levels. Just remember you are not in this alone. Skype is wonderful and free. DH and I use audio/video to stay in touch with our son and his family in Japan.

Granny in your pocket:))))). Veggy and dunes and kathindic you too. Linda r & linda N, rider
