| To all the cancer warriors out there,
I don't know of anything that has kicked my butt so badly, but as I saw someone post earlier, there is a routine and there is an end in sight. I will not lose my hair as this protocol/medications don't do that but I have every other side effect and it is not fun. Watching everyone else continue to ride/haul/have fun is a killer too, but to all of us brave hearts.........we will survive and be stronger. As my husband just told me this morning, the Lord is teaching me to be a patient and better person. I'm going to hope that I learn and grow from this experience. Soldier on my friends! |

Location: In a happy place | Meg I have some suggestions but I don't know all your details and I in turn don't want to overwhelm you with information you may not want. Just know I am here so pm me if/and when you feel like it.
As far as the wigs....some hate them some don't. I for one cannot go out in public without one. I'm sure all of these ladies are much prettier than I am so they look good without one. I have wigs that haven't been worn even one time so if you would like me to send one, if you need it I will be happy to mail it to you. My doctor showed no mercy and gave me the largest doses of chemo possible so my hair is not growing back as fast as most so I am still wearing wigs and will be happy to share with anyone. |

Location: Riding Crackhead. | teehaha - 2014-03-05 5:50 PM It's funny Scott that the first time I get on BHW I read your post.
To fill in..I had a PET scan on Monday..head to toe and 50 minutes in that tube. I have 3 spots on my back and a mass in the right breast. I started radiation on the back on Tues and will go everyday for 3 weeks. They are trying to relieve some of the pain I have in my right leg and get me mobile again. I have a biopsy scheduled tomorrow on the breast and then a consult with the chemo Dr on Fri and more radiation. I'm at the overwhelmed stage right now but I can feel God's arms around me and know that I'm in good hands.
Please keep the prayers comming as I feel like I need all I can get
I give you my prayers and cyber hugs.  |
