I agree with u guys about it being a good idea. Hopefully it will make them think, before they do something they may regret. The bad part about my daughter's doll, was, early Sun morn, her's died....
Kathy, Prayers coming your way, May God Bless you all!...
Donna, sorry I haven't been on for a few days, bad days. I had my 2nd chemo yes. All bones and body parts on alert today. I think it was you that told me that this would ease up, and then it would be...

Grace, Welcome. I am also pretty new to this board . Like some of the others said there are plenty of ladies here who have helped me since I joined. If I needed a laugh or just a pick me up, most...
[color=blue>You] Chucky, then it didn't take long for me to remember. /community/emoticons/eyes.gif Now I have it in my room, after I got it to stop crying, just waiting. There's a key you can turn...
Bernadette, You may have already seen this mag, but, they gave it to me in the hosp after my mastectomy. I don't know if you have found anything or not. This catalog has a lot of neat stuff in it....
Bernadette, it was Neupogen they gave me, and I'm with you on the mough wash. I am glad the Taxol is, so far, so good. I still have 3 more A/C to go, and then Taxol. I am still hoping that some of...
Hi Donna, I haven't been anywhere to look for the soup since I found that big bag. I think I got sick off those neupogen(sp?) inj. That is one of the side effects, and the bone pain is pretty bad as...
Judy, I am so happy that your mammo was normal. And I know the "retail therapy" just put the icing on the cake. Good cake too wasn't it. lol Prayers to you, and May God Bless...
Hi Stefanie, I had already thought about the warm salt/baking soda mouthwash. I picked up 2 boxes the day before they gave me that nasty mouthwash. The meds i was given seem to have cleared most of...
I like everyone else, don't know the answers to your questions. But, I do hope all goes as you want it too. I also, if it were me prefer a woman plastic surgeon. I think I would be more comfortable....
Jo-Ann, I'm glad you had a happy Halloween with your kids. I know they looked just perfect. Also glad you decided to buy this year instead of making them, since it can be hard on the hands. Mine...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYBODY................Hi Vicky , I am still on the a/c and cytoxan. The next round will be Taxol. The drying of the skin wasn't the prob, it was just so sensitive to touch that was...
But, will take it as it comes, with my chin held as far as I can get it. After todays inj, I am coming home and going to try to rest. I really feel exhausted this am. You guys have a great weekend....
Bernadette, I am glad you are getting to go back to work. That's the way I was as long as I was able. However I had the same prob with being out sick, and knew I had to do something. This was later...
Hey Bernadette, I am still in the insomnia mode. It seems to be calming down some, but, it is just before another treatment. I have been disabled w/Crohn's since'76. The way that stuff does me I...
We have hard candy too. I haven't tried the Mrs Grass soup, but, the Ramen Noodles seem to do the trick for me. That is when I feel like I can eat something. I will check into the other to sip on....
[color=blue>I] that, but, after I typed it, I saw how ridiculous it really sounds and looks. But, that is some of the crap I dream. I know the steroids are messing with me, cause that feeling is one...
Hi Donna, My first treatment was Oct 17. So far the chemo hasn't made me sick unless that is what is going on now, or as far as throwing up it hasn't. I am loosing weight too, w/D. I try to keep...
, or waking up in a cold sweat and being in severe pain. I have meds for sleep and pain, but, don't seem to be helping. My body seems to be craving something I am not getting. Out of whack again. So...
Kattbird, I have had those shots in the stomach too. They do hurt. They told me I couldn't rub it or touch it until the pain stops. I was told they were for the blood clots that get into the legs and...
Bernadette, I haven't had any shots scheduled at this point in my treatment. Right now it is just A/C, Cytoxan. The onc, the way i understood him from the beginning was he wanted to start me out on...
Donna, I think all gi's can be a pain in the butt, pun intended, when they want to. I have had them do me the same way as you. I also am having fis prob, but I think I will see if the chemo will...
Hey guys, I saw that news as well, and I am HER2+. I didn't get to catch the entire piece, but since this is all new to me, i am very excited. My onc told me up front he wanted me to have it, so...
Hi Bernadette, Yes spending time with the same nurse in chemo would be nice. I hope that is the way they do here. I was in pre-op for the port when know it all was like a vampire bat. I do have a...
kattbird, Are you taking cytoxan as well for chemo? some of the info i was given on this drug were; nasal congestion and headache, dry cough, flu-like symptoms. These seem to be a normal thing,...
Bernadette,Its always funny to see them try and then they are not as smart as they think they are, what gets me though is when you try to tell them and they still won't listen. Then she kept saying...
Grammy, my crohns hasn't been under control since the day I heard Cancer. For the most part it stays that way. I also have a small drainage in the vaginal area. My onc thinks that the chemo could...
