The latest scoop is that I should be up and running for getting me some chemo first thing tomorrow morning. So if you don’t hear from me for a couple days do not fret. I will be back.
misfit-thanks for the hugs. I think everything will go fine.
Sharkey-thanks for the good thoughts. Unfortunately my chemo has changed so I have two extra treatments but the doses are less. So this will now make the halfway mark. That will teach me to plan ahead while going through this. Everything is so changeable.
I wanted to say Happy Canada Day! Maybe it's more like Have the Best Chemo Day that you possibly can. I know, that sounds dumb, but you know what I mean.
I hope you are amazed at how smoothly today goes. You're in my heart. I'm off to volunteer at Girl Scout Camp this afternoon (it's noon here, now); LG's last day.
fuel-Yoshi hates everybody. Consider it a badge of honour. Can't wait to see the photos of Satan. The nipple capsules are long gone now. It was just a one day affair. Wearing them at home just felt weird.
kranki, glad it went OK. heh, I *almost* got the "Look-bitch-I'm-a-volunteer-I-can-walk-at-any-minute-NO-you-DI'INT-just-dis-me-wit-yo-bossy-ass-mouth-watch-me-walk-out-of-this-camp!" Badge. Almost. Tongue-biting and hard work ;)
kranki, I had a lovely new visitor today, and when I went to her site, I discovered a delightful post about what she and a friend have done to her pretty, chemofied head. Check her out:
Well I am glad Susie steered you into my blog. I am not sure how I fell into her's but I did and the rest is history.
Now I read a few of your post's. And I so know where you are coming from CANCER SUCKS! The treatment sucks....but the treatment is what will set "us free".
Now Susie indicated in her post above mine...about my art work on my head...The artist is my sister Shoshie-who is also-my stem-cell-donor...or as we call her SCD.
Those shot's you wrote about in the US we call the neupogeon (spelling not sure)...anyway they usually work really well. I have had them and they have kept my rear out of the hospital. I get mine in my stomach...and they don't hurt. A little sting and you are good to go...that is if we are talking about the same thing. The key is they have to push it in really slow........
I am lucky my partner is a M.D an Internist...any my oldest sister is a M.D. and she is a Psychiatrist...the truth be told my sister is way better at giving me the shots then my partner.
I hope you have friends, family who are helping you on this journey. I have not been blogging long...but I have read some great blogs, and I have had some really super support from some fellow bloggers. Who would ever think that with a few key strokes someone can make you smile... or make what we have...better because of somebody getting it... or stopping by just to say HI...I hope your doing OK....
As you can see I just type away I don't think about sentence structure, spelling, blah...blah blah....I think all of that stuff is way over-rated any old way!
I have been on a leave from work for the last 4 months....I was Dx 11 months ago....and worked on and off the first 7...but I do medical research at a hospital and it was just getting way to hard for me to really focus on those old petri dishes, slides.... etc....They are great and said JUST GO....
Ok enough of my blabbering... Any time you need a pep talk just stop by...and I will stop by to see how you are doing.
I sometimes I kid you not stand in our kitchen and scream as loud as I can....and that helps me until our dog goes nuts.....
Take care...good luck....and chocolate is a must when you have cancer....it's oart of my treatment plan :)

Hi Stacey:

they usually work really well.
I have had them and they have kept
my rear out of the hospital. I get mine in my stomach...and they
don't hurt. A little sting and you are good to go...that is if we are talking about the same thing. The

I am lucky my partner is a M.D
