Yeah, overall it was a good appointment for me, the needle was annoying but did not fuss in front of the worker. Wish I could have my port accessed before appointments in CT and MRI.
Re: Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?
The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be.

Re: Stage IV MBC Fitness
@eleanora - I agree that age and especially the accumulation of drugs really adds to all of this. I quit doing PT too at around the time I got shingles, and now I'm realizing it was a bigger help than I knew. The straw that broke the camel's back here for me was the soreness that I've now added from lying on those scan tables last Friday. I am more sore than ever now, and have not recovered, whereas it usually only takes a couple of days. Just this morning I started doing some of the PT exercises (just a couple and very slowly) and I think if I continue it will help. I'm going to try and call the PT sometime maybe later this week and see about starting back up. I think you're right about the gift of time and grace being needed, but it's so much easier said than done. Thank you.

The weather is starting to cool a little, especially at night. Inara is willing to tolerate the boys for the sake of a cozy lap. 😆

I had my genetics testing done and apparently my breast cancer is not genetic. That is good news for my kids but of course we should all be diligent.
Re: Cats, cats, cats
Tuna became friends with a foster cat while I was at the shore. They are from different litters but the same age. He does not do well at adoption fairs. He like to play and run. When he is caged up he withdraws. He does not like to be held except on his terms. The rescue decided he should be a barn cat. We felt he would not survive so we took him in. His name is Gizmo. He loves play time, and treats. He an Tuna play a lot but they don't sleep together. He really is a fun cat. He just needs to learn some manners.
