Re: Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?
I’m enjoying all the genealogy chat. I am also the keeper of our family history and can find direct links to the Boston Tea Party. Interesting though my DH’s family are all southerner's.
As for BC, I am doing okay. I developed a dry cough a while ago which led to a chest X-ray which led to a CT scan. My MO thinks there’s some scarring in my upper right lung probably from radiation. She’s repeating the CT in April. I continue on Verzenio (less than 11 months to go!) and letrozole. Side effects are manageable.
Re: Can we have a forum for "older" people with bc?
eleanora, like you my genealogy research pre-dated Roots (by a decade or more), and Ancestry. My cousin and I used a fledgling company called Family Edge to record our data on our computers. The developer (Carl J. Cox) then updated it to a new version called Family Edge Plus. I printed copies of all the family data I had stored and still have them thankfully, because the source was the copies of the original documents stored on microfiche, the original bound records or records available at the Pennsylvania Historical Society, the National Archives (Washington and Philadelphia), Irish church records (went there) and other validated sources. I can still access these old records on my old desktop computer with some difficulty, but they were not transferable to any then developed genealogy programs. I bought one and found it so hard to use, I quit and just recorded info by hand until Family Search and Ancestry were available. Got tired of people adulterating my records with incorrect information on Family Search, went on to Ancestry and have limited access to only my one cousin. I also have access to hers and we usually access only when we have a challenge that needs a fresh set of eyes. This is the same cousin that used Family Edge with me.
Thanks for the heads up about Gettysburg though. Seems my maternal line has bragging rights to 2 direct descendants who fought in the Civil War, both Union and representing infantry and cavalry in PA.
intolight and eleanora, I am glad you both enjoyed the ballet with me. It was spectacular from start to finish.
