Hi all.....

Yes, I was wondering how nurse is doing with radiation just last night. I logged on this morning to check on every one.
Drumming apparently helps to focus ADD minds. I would play a CD of drumming when my son was young and struggling to stay focused on his math work. I imagine that it has to be a certian rythem though, The theam of Hawaii five O would have had the opposite affect... at leasts on me anyway.

I love the Icee/Katie pictures! I am glad they are getting along so well. My new girl is a perfect fit into the family. My husband keeps sticking out his bottom lip and saying,"Sadie likes you BEST! sniff sniff."
yes, she does. She is a shadow that walks in front of me.

Babyrnic, I am glad you are done and doing well! My neighbor is just starting the journy. She is nervous, which is understandable, but I tell her of all of you and how well you all did.

I've been so busy LIVING, I haven't been here to check how everyone is!
Finished radiation and chemo, healing up pretty well AND... today was my first day back to work! It went well, I'm so glad to be getting back to "normal". I'll have checkups every 3 months, with paps, for the first year, then 4 months. My remission date will be 7/13/2013 and I assure you, you are ALL invited to they party!

My Friend died. From the diagnosis to his passing was very quick, three months. He died peacefully at home, his heart gave out. The tumor was bleeding into his heart chamber, his heart couldn't pump properly. Nothing could be done as the tumor had grown into the heart wall.
Life's strange sometimes, all very surreal. Makes you appreciate every day because you never know what might happen.
 
Hello everyone! I haven't wrote in quite awhile, but have been monitoring here and there and everyone has helped me so much. You are all such special people!

My dear friend of 27 years has been battling stage 4 colon cancer for 4 years(believe it or not) she has been through everything. To make a long battle short, She was sent home in March when they found 25-30 tumors in her liver with nothing else they can do. She has been such an inspiration! And her DH is a definate HERO!

She knows the end is coming, but wanted one last trip to Louisiana, so last Friday evening, we made all the plans and reservations to leave this Thursday July 21. We noticed swelling in her feet and legs that night and she thought it might have been that she was up and around too much. She had already been on two pills to control water retention. By Sunday it was much worse and yesterday we canceled the trip. Today she is in so much pain, her legs are like tree trunks to the knees and the skin is red and looks like it will burst. She needs something, but the morphine makes her nauseous and crazy, so she doesn't want it. The Hospice nurse is due to come today and I hope she has something she can do. I feel so helpless. She has been through so much, and now it has to hurts her so bad. I am so frustrated, it is so hard to stand by and watch someone you care about hurt. She has never been one to feel sorry for herself and through everything, still worrys about everyone else and how she is putting them out. She told me today she feels really good everywhere else, but her leg pain is as bad a childbirth and doesn't know how long she can tollerate it.

Sorry to burden everyone with this, I know all I can do is be there to talk when she feels like it. Is there anything else?

Please keep her and her DH in your prayers.
