    Dianarose, about time! I'm still astounded that they didn't have the supplies at the biopsy. Now, which chemo will you be starting?

    -------------------------------

    Many times, I have used groups of women in the top picture, tho' usually I try to find Mid-Age ones. Some might have noticed the ones up there now look too young to represent this thread, so what was I thinking? Well, you Middies have disappointed me. That photo has been up for two days now and even with BC going on in your life, I would have thought that someone would have noticed how creepy and spooky it was. That's what I was going for anyway, but apparently no one has really looked at it. Happy Halloween hauntings!

    Pocket time, ladies: Visualize a swarm of protective, fierce BCO'rs milling about Dianarose with blankets, foot massages, iced drinks with umbrellas in them, and some really good jokes. Of course, we would all be the size of Thumbellina so that we could dive headfirst into her bag when the staff showed up.

    I, too, would like to know what they are giving you, when you get it figured out. So hope they have good drugs for side effects. Hugs, Mam

    Momine--love the Fairy Tale site!

    Dianarose--Praying your new Onc is correct, and you get the right chemo on the first try. Or the right combination.8 hours, wow.

    I'm set so I go to the last unread post, so I don't see the topper until I have to turn a page.I have to remember to stop and check the topper here more regularly.IT is an eerie pic!

    Eph, Barbe, NM, and everyone else...I did my best to find the most spine-chilling pic that I could. You still have not looked closely enough.

    Hahaha! Forget the "dangly things." They are just belts with probably a tool needed for linen work back in 1900 Ireland. The claim is that the photo up at the top is not retouched, but to my eye there should be another standing in back, on the right, for symmetry. So, I looked further and that photo must have come from this photo...but now things just got SPOOKIER.

    Happy Halloween Hauntings, my BC Sisters.

    I think the Addams Family's "Thing" showed up for the photo shoot....or could it be "Lady Fingers", Thing's girlfriend? The hand looks too feminine to be a man's.

    Sorry, Lita57, but Lady Fingers was a left hand.

    Great picture of Thing and Lady Fingers! You're right, she was left handed. I really miss that show. The movie with Raul Julia was ok, but John Astin nailed Gomez Addams on the show. And who can forget my favorite: Cousin Itt.

    Bye for now Cara Mia,

    My Her2 came back inconclusive so they are doing it again😬. Was negative first two rounds but as we all know this can change. I pray it is still negative. Surgeon told us yesterday when she went in my tummy it didn't take long because she could see the cancer. Said it looked like little whit barnacles you see on the rocks at the beach. Yet they don't show up on the scans. Dam lobular!

    Chemo starts Wednesday so hubby will be shaving my head soon. I have a few wigs this time now need to find someone who knows how to glue those individual eye lashes on.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend

    Up most of the night with the worst acid reflux that burned my throat and roof of my mouth along with vomit. I pray that the chemo works and works quickly. Stomach hurts and just feel like a pile of poop 💩. This is no way to live

    Dianarose, you are the Energizer Bunny's human relative, in my opinion. So sorry about your uncle; that whole dynamic is so sad. Prayers for your cousins and of course you!

    Eph, You must be working the night shift now?

    Barbe, Sorry to learn about your radiation pneumonitis. It's a SE that is not uncommon but I don't remember anyone saying a word about it before I underwent rads. Another "dirty little secret" they don't tell us. Are you one steroids for that now?

    Dianarose, Sympathy to you and your extended family. You did say he had been ill a long time. Did he know his wife was gone? I wonder if she knew he was near the end and was feeling depressed about that? I wonder if he knew she was gone and "decided" it was his time as well? People say that kind of stuff all the time so it makes me curious. As for you, good job on the Xmas shopping and if you meant actual shopping (rather than online) than I have to think you have a little strength returning. Even if you did mean online, you are still amazing to be thinking of others while going thru' all that aggravation yourself. Chemo Weds. sounds exhausting, boring, and the least fun anyone can have in an eight hour period. Is your DH going to keep you company? Of course, we WILL all be weighing down your pockets and if you don't get the total V.I.P. treatment, watch out...we are ready to march!

    Feeling quite good lately, myself. So good that I kind of hate to be facing a surgery. Trying not to think about the ugly little scar that I will be sporting on my neck by the end of the week. It's scar #12, but all my other ones are hidden under clothing. This will be the first one that will be saying "hiya" every time I look into a mirror. This will be the kind of scar strangers stare at. Besides that little souvenir, my actual worries, in order of importance, are: managing to wake up from anesthesia, not having two paralyzed vocal nerves, and getting a decent entubation where I don't have a sore throat for days afterward. (I've had gentle before and I have had rough so I will definitely be stating my preference on that.)

    I wonder if my surgeon will actually look at my thyroid nodule while he is in there...hope no surprises about that. I had to fight so hard to get them to leave my thyroid alone, that nodule better just be in there keeping to itself and not making any trouble. Other than all that, I say good riddance to a bad parathyroid. I've spent too much time in the last year on that stupid thing and want to move on now.

    Just don't have a lot to say about BC anymore, but I will post to let you know how boring THIS surgery is. HOPING for BORING!

    I did actual shopping. Toy isle is easy. I have done some online with the canvas people. Had one done in black and white and it's beautiful ❤️ I felt good Saturday but think I over did it a bit. Resting today. Well doing laundry. Making the rest of my Christmas list so I don't forget anyone 😜.

    El-when is your surgery?

    I called and no results yet on my Her2. Has anyone have this change on them. Still praying for negative.

    I am sure the note my aunt left explained her reasons but I don't know the contents.

    Hope everyone has a great day and get some cute trick or treaters
