Re: Bone Mets Thread
Thank you @rstogether and @tbos805. RO thinks 5 days should be enough for the 2 spots he will be targeting. I’m praying he knows what he’s doing. I’m happy there is a palliative solutions to the bone pain. I sure hope the scientists would focus more on a cure than just creating “treatments” for what they are now calling a “chronic disease”.
Re: Are you currently (or have you been) in a Clinical Trial?
@cblaurenceauthor Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry that this treatment caused you all this inconvenience. Your message is important because I also tend to self-diagnose and miss the mark, or wait and tell myself that it will get better on its own. Last time I thought I had a fever from a new treatment when my oncologist simply told me that I had a bad case of the flu and he was right...so I think it's important to remember that all symptoms, discomforts, and pains deserve to be mentioned to the doctor.
I hope we can quickly find you a new treatment. Thank you again for your message, which is so important for all of us.
Re: Letrozole for life
Thanks Mandy!
Helpful information. I am extremely curious about the comment from your physician about the possible dx of hormone receptive negative BC should you have stayed on it. I’ll have to look into some medical journals. Never know, there may be some school of thought on that.
Thanks for your insight. I appreciate it. The best of luck with everything..

Re: My Husband, My Life, My Love, My Family, My Cancer
@chicagoan - that is amazingly frustrating! You've been in so much pain for so long. Apparently, toughing it out is not to our benefit. I don't think they took SondraF seriously until she had a major meltdown in the office. I hope your surgery is soon, successful, and quickly recovered.
@goldensrbest - late response. I do expect to have some PT. It's possible they could just give me exercises to do at home for range of motion, but I want to add improving balance to my goals.
@mara51506 - Ouch! My feet hurt just thinking about those Legos I've stepped on!
Nothing new here. Just healing up. Anxious to start practicing walking in my boot at home next week. I can't tell if I had a really bad allergy attack that lasted two days, or the shortest cold on record. Either way, it seems to be behind me.
Waving to everyone in the the living room. 👋❤️

Firefighter - a warm welcome. We are to support you.
Cindy - fabulous pictures of DC. The nighttime pictures are beautiful.
Chris - have you had surgery already? Is the OT the rehab part of this?
Taco - good to hear from you. My sympathies on the loss of your friends.
I’ve got a lot going on at home right now. Nothing exciting just a lot to deal with right now.
Saying hi to Betrayal and all others.

There are amazingly wonderful people in all walks of life; some familiar to us and others not. Stretch yourself and really get to know people. People are in many ways one of our greatest treasures.

Re: So...whats for dinner?
Moon, I'm glad you dropped in. Sounds like your life is full of challenges. Come back when you can.
Maggie, enjoy the visit with your daughter and grandson. I would love to see a picture of them.
Dinner last night was steak fajitas without the tortillas. Refried beans, sauteed onion and red bell pepper and strips of steak, diced tomato and thin sliced lettuce, sour cream, salsa. It just occurred to me that I forgot cheese.
A couple who live in south MN are staying at Vacationaire a few days. Clancy's restaurant is located there. We'll meet them at Clancy's tonight for dinner. Some years ago they had a camper here in Pine Hollow Resort. We got to know them then and have stayed in touch.
I don't mind not cooking tonight!

Re: I say YES. YOU say NO....Numero Tre! Enjoy!
I just typed up a letter to Disney-ABC. Among other things, I lamented the fact that if they continue down this route, I will never be able to take my grandchildren to Disneyland (I didn't tell them that these grandchildren have yet to been born! 😄).
