    No Worries! I mix a lot of natural stuff in too, thats how I came upon that Sloan Kettering site. I was double and triple checking stuff to ask my onc about. I was worried about the estrogen stuff with it for me.


    Warning on the tea...it smells and tastes like crap! Lol but hey if it can't hurt and might help, no harm in trying.

    OMG - My sadly misguided cousin is forwarding one of those idiotic chain emails to try to cure me. Is there really no cure for stupid yet? Can we start a national campaign for a cure ... for stupid? Maybe use the color pink?

    I'm behind yet again.. didn't want you all to worry about me so I just came on to say I'm taking a break... yet again.. got to get myself together a bit more and stop dwelling on the mess I'm in.. This place seems to bring all the emotion to the surface and not wanting to deal with that yet..

    I don't know what it is but this month just seems weird to me. I don't know if it's the political situation, weather, pinktober or what...

    Alyson, sorry to hear that. Just rest for the day and take it easy. All that stuff you want to accomplish will still be there tomorrow. I'm all achy because I tripped over the bucket of water DH left in the hall and managed to hit the bucket with one hip and the floor with the other.

    OH Wren, Sorry about the fall. I fell Sunday in the lawn. Grass had covered a small hole the dogs dug. My foot managed to find it. Lucky though my head and face hit the grassy area, inches from concrete. My head hit on the side of the brain sx. That side is still painful. Glad it hit the grass not concrete. The sore areas that show up hours and a day later just reinforce what a fall can do. Very unsettling. hope your booboo areas heal quickly Sassy

    I'm still here just quiet. I'm down, stressed, and worried. I don't know what to say but that I wish you all the best.

    I have been watching but quiet on this site and wow it seems everyone is very down and out!! I thought it was just me.


    I see Pink Pink Pink everywhere in October and it just reminds me over and over again what I am healing from. I just want that to all go away! I am dealing with a boss who I am thinking I may have to see a laywer about - A sister who just had her 2nd surgery for breast cancer,. she was dianosed 2 months after me.. A brother who has been in the hospital for 3 weeks and will be there many more from infections in his intestines- we nearly lost him:(


    Now I sit and wait for a cetified letter from work, which didnt come again today- but my boss had to be so NICE- NOT!!! and call me to tell me she sent it to me.. WHY? she had to call? I think to torture me with the unknown.


    Doctors put me on a month leave of absence- because after overdoing it a week out of rads I managed to tear scar tissue, got an internal bleed and disrupted healing nerves. My boss had enough nerve to tell my co-workers I was faking- I guess I fake well!!


    So now I await this letter, not having a clue as to its contents that she was SOOOO nice to call me and tell me it was coming.


    GOOD GRIEF!!!! Charlie Brown could not have said it better!!!


    Ok ladies we all need party and a few drinks and some good butt kicking shoes.. WE GOT THIS !! We fight like girls and will prevail!!


    OK- enough whine - I need the cheese.

    ndgrrll, OMG I remember your earlier post about your boss. How dreadful. Please, keep a diary of everything said dates, times, who was present. Is Human Resources not supporting you?

    There is a web link called CancerandCareers.org. Hope you can find some helpful info there. It sounds like you have an EEOC/ADA complaint for sure. Once you make the complaint they will investigate at no cost to you. It also sounds like you need an employment lawyer.

    So wish all this hell wasn't bothering you. Prayers for all of you, your sister, and brother.

    Sharon, I'm almost always quiet, too. And, like you, I'm feeling pretty down. I like to keep up with the posts, though, and maybe be an occasional contributor. I hope you feel better soon.

    Ndgrrl, so sorry about your jerk of a boss. As if you don't have enough on your plate. I guess it's inevitable that we'll feel down sometimes. I get tired of acting chipper for people, but I know most people have limited tolerance for sickness in others. We're supposed to be strong and positive. We're "warrior women, battling cancer." Actually, I'm no warrior, and I'm not battling anything. I'm just trying to make it through each day. Sorry, my support for you turned into a whine for me!

    MaryLW, Please , don't think that way "whine" ndgrll knows you are thinking of her. In your sharing, she can find support AND clues that may help her in the battle she faces with her boss. Every story carries an outcome. The Irish live by stories. Many other cultures do too. I'm Irish. Every moment has a story LOL. Ndgrll's boss is ignorant and a bully. This bully should not be in a position of power. Period.

    Awee- thank you everyone for your support. I waited all day and that letter never did come- grrr- I guess I will probably have to wait until Monday. Whine Whine all you want !! Sometimes its great to all get it out and wonderful to vent.. It just feels good to know that there are others who understand and it means bunches.


    Thanks so much!!
