Shanagirl, never been to a pig roast, always thought it would be weird to see the actual pig being roasted but hope you enjoyed yours.
Re: My Husband, My Life, My Love, My Family, My Cancer
@mara51506 Yes my neighbor has an annual Pig roast. I’ve never seen the roasted pig and I don’t even know where they roast it. I think they do it underground somewhere then, apparently they slice the meat on the roast and it’s served in nice thin pieces in large serving trays. It’s so tender, juicy, and delicious roast pork. Everyone brings food and so there’s so much food and salads. They also barbecue hamburgers & hot dogs. Every year I bring 2 trays of spaghetti & white clam sauce.. they also serve pudding shots and Jell-O shots, lots of desserts, They have a band there too. Lots of little children running around with their big yellow Lab, “Logger”. It really is a fun event, but I’ve never seen the pig. 😂 they have it every July 4th weekend.
@irishlove I sure hope everything is getting better with your bowel issues. Colace and Ducolac helps me sometimes. Also I’ve really been taking my home made Keifer and Probiotic capsules and trying to eat foods that are natural Prebiotics. I’ve been reading a lot about gut health. So far. It’s helping me.
Everyone I’m so shaken by Shannon Doherty’s passing recently. I relate so much when I hear of anyone dying from Stage IV MBC. That fellow-feeling we all get when we lose another fellow mbc person here. I didn’t realize she posted here. If I had known I would have share comments with her. Did she post under her real name?
@cookie54 you always pop into my mind whenever we get bad weather here, Jersey Girl😉🩵
@sunshine99 I’m in your pocket knowing you’ve. Been in pain. Sending you some comforting vibes and gentle hugs.💕💞

I can't imagine that any previously undecided voter would have been persuaded to vote for Trump based on anything that has happened recently.
As for the Republicans, they have lost their fricklng minds. If you ever see me wearing a mini-pad on my ear, please knock my head against the wall!
As for the Democrats, I don't care who they choose; but they do need to get their act together!

Thanks, mavericksmom ,
I don’t see pragmatism and a cold hard stare at what’s going on with Biden and the upcoming election as anything but reality. An ugly reality but a reality none the less. I believe having a positive attitude is very helpful in life, but not mandatory at all times and for me, that’s the reality of these times. I hope more than anything that I’m wrong!

@ebfitzy Your daughter is adorable 😍 I CANNOT imagine taking care of three young kids during this treatment!! Mine are 21 and 25, so I’m just taking care of myself mostly. You should get some serious credit in your house for dealing with motherhood and cancer at the same time. Motherhood nearly did me in itself (no cancer treatment needed!). Women are sooooo much tougher and stronger than men, and your story proves it! Hang in there mama! ❤️🙏

Re: I say YES. YOU say NO....Numero Tre! Enjoy!
I am sorry that we all don’t share your feelings. There is nothing wrong with your optimism but those are your feelings, just as others have theirs. My point is that all of our feelings should be respected as we are individuals. And once again, my perceived negativity will not change my vote in any way and I fervently hope I am dead wrong about all of this.
I believe I used the term Pollyanna but it was in reference to myself.

Re: My Husband, My Life, My Love, My Family, My Cancer
irish ugh so very sorry that you are now dealing with covid! What a bunch of crap that they won’t pay for Paxlovid! I know it’s hard not to be aggravated at all this but for now focus on your healing. Sending healing hugs your way🤗
Tanya Sorry your PET experience was awful. It’s very sad how much of it is like McDonald’s drive thru. When I was working in CT it was all about how many patients we could scan in an hour. I hated to see the changes over the years and having barely anytime for patient interaction. Hope your next experience is better.
Finally a beautiful low humidity day! Hope everyone has a peaceful day☀️☮️

Re: My Husband, My Life, My Love, My Family, My Cancer
Irish, does that mean you can eat better food now that the blockage is out? Other question, can you eat things with high fiber again to help things pass through, maybe put the high fibre stuff in the blender for a smoothie type of thing? I am glad the blockage was discovered for you.
Re: Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?
Wow - that tilt-a-whirl is really something. Great pic.
Petite, so glad you are getting the help you need. Maybe KeyWestern will chime in on some things to do/see.
Not sure I'm going to make my surgery date. Am having lots of problems with my primary and getting a clearance. Not that I'm not fine - they just keep screwing up on the paperwork. I'm going to have to sit at the lab tomorrow until I get in because they didn't write the order when they did the one for the chest X-ray.
Hot, hot, hot here but no rain.
Be safe everyone.
