@candy-678 Sorry for your loss. What a mind-blowing story. It seems like cancer just blows up quickly in some people like your friend or exbrnxgrl after years of stability. It's a sad day with both their deaths.
@cookie54 - Very sorry to hear that you have to continue to pursue the eye issue. I guess your doctor is just covering all the bases. I feel like @intolight, i.e. that it can be the meds and some of these things just come and go. You have to check these things out though of course, and get to a place where you are comfortable with what you decide to do. Sending lots of good wishes for a real good outcome with this.
@sf-cakes - Thanks so much for your nice comment and for all of the good wishes and support. I was happy to share my experience with the hope that others might be able to benefit from it at some point. I had found the stories others told me about their liver biopsy experiences very, very helpful.
@candy-678 - Candy, I am so very sorry to read about your friend. Sending my sincere sympathies and a hug.
Mara, so glad the fridge issue is/was minor. Sorry you lost all that food.
Cookie, I get occasional "floaters" in my eyes. They go away on their own but sometimes takes a while. One time it was like someone dropped a net over the eye. It was scary and I went in and had it checked, but it was the same issue, and it went away on its own. My opthomologist says with my meds these things will happen but do check them out if it is large. I have a freckle on one iris that he watches carefully, but so far it has not changed. It doesn't affect my eyesight. My cataract surgery was three years ago and I am still doing well.
Wow—it's only 56° right now—brrr! It is also raining with a flash flood warning. No problem with flooding for where we live as long as we don't go out. I just got a grocery order and am staying in.
@threetree I'm glad your biopsy is over with, it did not sound pleasant at all, particularly feeling bummed/down but of course the pain, too. Oof. Thank you for sharing your experience here, and know that so many of us are sending you love and support. ❤️
@mara51506 UGH Sorry to hear about the fridge! I know there's not much you can do about it and you have every right to be annoyed .Cooking is a huge part of your daily life that you enjoy, fingers crossed that management rectifies quickly. Hopefully when DB returns home from vacation you will be able to get together. Maybe you can suggest getting together for dinner to hear about their vacation. Hugs and we are always here to chant.
@threetree Thinking of you hoping all went smoothly.
@mara51506 What a horrible start to your day. Hope that the problem is resolved soon. Having cancer can be a lonely life. Sorry that you are missing your DB and SIL. We are all here, ready to chat and understand what you are going through.
@mara51506 Fridge problems are the worse! I hope things get fixed quickly for you and that you don't feel too lonely while DB and SIL are away. You deserve a day of sunshine and joy. This morning I threw out some things from my freezer since it is garbage day that had been there too long and I hate cleaning out the fridge. Climbing into your pocket for hugs.
Candy, thinking of you. I'm so sorry about your friend.
The recent deaths of exbrnxgrl and another woman who was well known to one of the support groups here, are also in the front of my thoughts today. My heart feels heavy.
In honor of exbrnxgrl, who started this lovely thread, may she rest in peace. This was the first thread I read and commented on at the start of my MBC experience. She will always have a place in my heart.
