For those starting chemo in June

Hi girls, Nancy you have a time there. I do know what you mean because March can bring any weather at any time so you have to be prepared. It is indeed warm here. Janie, hows it going? P.J. did you get to see Lincoln? The room where Mary Todd is with the sick child dieing is too sad. Well I am glad you had good weather for your trip P.J. I thought your friends were very nice. Your female friend looked so familiar. I just kept thinking I know her but she must look like someone I know. Someday I will remember who.Well I am tired so better get for now. Goodnight ladies, Mary

Hey all, It is nice and warm here, I ain't complaining. Having a great time but daughter has a bad cold with fever. I really hope I don't get it. We shared food in Vegas so the odds are good. P.J. I can't imagine how Mary Todd didn't die from a broken heart after all she indured. Glad you had a good time. How you doing Janie? Hubby is still going to quit after vacation next month he says so I hope so.Nancy, you still there? Battery low on laptop gotta go, I wrote lastnight and it didn't post,. Mary

Hey Girls, Janie my daughter told me about the the tykerb. It is great to to get more ammo. Sorry to hear your son is sick, it is going around and it ain't pretty. Oh lord, I am not photogenic at all. I have the big, surprise eyes too. I always have my eyes closed in pics so I wanted to make sure they were open and they are....I have squenty eyes(cat eyes) when I smile or laugh, family trait so I try to not smile too big. I did really enjoy meeting up with P. J. Well one more day and I go home Mon. Hubby is home today and tomorrow with the dog. She is so homesick for him all the time so I know she is enjoying sticking to him like glue. Saw Wild hogs today and it was really good. Gotta get. Hugs, Mary

Holy Cow Nancy Lee. You are a go getter girlfriend. I think thats great! I am so sore from all the walking we have done this past wk. I really need to get out and walk as soon as the weather permits. We saw the Body exibit today and it was totally awsome. The embro part was very enlightening. They even had 3 slices of boob with B.C. Well we are going to eat and I better get going. Hope everyone had a great wk. end. Mary

Hey Girls, Nancy, I wish I could find my mind but I forgot where I put it half the time. Well I heard about how exercising helps to keep your cancer from returning. I told my hubby who is home for a Dr. apt. that I can't do much excercising because of my neck but "we" could walk and do some stuff. He said he doesn't have cancer so he could coach me. I said "I Don't Think So. What I HAVE To Do YOU HAVE To Do. It states that in our marriage license. I can't find that document at the moment but he just has to take my word for it. He doesn't feel he can ride a bike anymore. Frankly I don't think he can do much of anything any more but he will try if I kill him making him try. He can pain med up and we shall go. I say that like I really want to and I do but I know what kinda pain my neck can cause just turning wrong but I can try. Oh well, we will see. We haven't decided where we are going on our little vacation, somewhere cheap, but we do know we are taking the dog. Hubby is sooo attached to her and her to him! Nothing has ever attached to him before, not even me! It is errie. Oh well, we are taking her. She is so old people dog, thats what we would call my mother in laws cats. They were strange, like scary strange and we called them old people cats. Well now thats us, old people with a strange dog. I wonder if our kids call us strange, hummmm, yep they do. My daughters tell me I get things mixed up some times but I think they do and blame it on me. Thats what I am sticking with anyway.Makes me feel better. My sis in law(hubby's sis) had a b.c. scare while I was gone. She called me shook up but after a second sono they think it is a cyst. They want to check it again in 6 months. I think I would of seen a surgeon because they thought mine was too and tried to drain it but the b.c. center surgeon knew right away what it was. Oh well, I can't very well go aginst her Dr. I will sugest that to her in 6 months if they aren't sure. We are having lunch this wk. so maybe I will ask who her Dr. is. Hey Janie whats up? Getting all rested after your trip P.J.? I thought of jumping in the truck and running to Texas with hubby tomorrow but I have so much to do and figure out where we are going on our trip. I haven't figured out why we are driving. Thats just a big fight waiting to happen ya know? His driving and my b*tc#ing. This is going to be fun, all we need are 3 screaming kids in the back seat and it would be the "good old days". Thank God for the G.P.S. because that cuts down on the getting lost and asking for directions fight. I got him a shirt in Az. that says "If a Man Talks In The Desert Where No Woman Can Hear Is He Still Wrong?" I love it and he will wear it because....he just will. Later little ladies, Mary

Hey girls, Nancy Lee, you should know that we all feel a little edgy with EE's flair up. I think it is normal for us to be a little scared. She also had a good size tumor from what I have read because she had to have chemo before surgery to shrink it. We all had smaller tumors. There are some who fight bone and liver mets for years. I mean some can fight it for as long as 15 years. There are those whos don't come back at all but we all know what a beach it is when it does(poor P.J. does). Hubby just called and he said he heard EE had invasive cancer. Yea, who knew he was listening and even understood. I gotta get but we will all pay attention to our bodies and find anything bad before it gets really bad. Mary

P.J. I hear ya on the wk. end. I went to my dads and went through stuff of my moms we didn't know she had. Found a poem she wrote to my dad when he was in Korea before they were married. It is all song titles and it is nice, kinda depressing though. We have more but I was tired and came home. I am not feeling real well right now. Stomach cramps so that can't be good. Have a good wk. end all you girls. Hugs, Mary
