@Arielle2 these scripts are from 1915, not 2015. It's just for "fun." (apparently we don't know how to have fun). All our Rx now come in electronically.

THEY GAVE THE BABY MERCURY AND SUGAR.


deb - good story and thanks for the laugh on the "surprise." Healthcare sure is humbling. Those of us in it need to remember that, sometimes.

yeah, it blows me away how many medicines they put mercury into. People used to LOVE that stuff, truly thought it was miraculous!

But what did they think that was going to do for the baby?

After months of waiting I got my Meiwa Kumquat today. And it has 3 kumquats on it.

They ran out and had to get some more in.

I hope they grow well for you!

Congratulations chicka. I don't particularly care for kumquats. I like certain oranges, tangelos, grapefruit, lemons, limes, and key limes. I love mangos, and guavas too. I don't care much for papaya.

deb, stop worrying because it won't help, or change a thing.

BE KIND TO YOURSELF. Give yourself permission to relax, take extra naps, do nothing when you don't want to, laze around. That was one of the hard things for me. I had to remember it was ok to do absolutely nothing for a couple days after my chemo, and even expect someone to do things for me.
A positive attitude is much more conducive to healing, and overall well being. Work your mind, don't let your mind work you.

Don't be afraid to reach out, and talk about it, if you feel the need. We're here to listen, and cheer you on.[/QUOTE]

Very well said.

Usually I'm the quite 1, but my hubby was in clinic yesterday for follow, they found 2 nodules on right lung ,1 on left lung, waiting for biopsy appt. If it's cancer again they're talking chemotherapy this time. Dr can t see it being cancer, after the amount of radiation treatment he went through, however cancer dosent go by the book. With that said sorry just had to say something

My prayer are with you always

because of my neeeed for information.... I am guessing they are testing during the simulation to see if they can give me Brachiotherepy.... as well. Sigh.

Brachiotherepy concentrates the radiation to one spot... In this case the top where the cervix used to be... if its too close to the bowel they cant do it thats why the extra internal contrast preparation. The "surprise"

next session will be a radiation treatment but a thorough discussion on my treatment plan according to the Simulation results... That was the Exit for my hysterectomy...

Now I am back to fighting off worrying....

deb

never say never and always remember the love here for you
