    LOL Stanzie (not gonna call you by your name, cuz I don't think DorK knows it yet) I am sorry, I should not have tipped you, especially since you were sore to begin with. Or maybe you are not sore when you are at The HTL? As for our weather, it is very very strange....to say the least!

    Could one of Tenders please get Stanzie a couple of G & T's....one for each hand!

    Beans N Karen, sorry you two wonderful chica's are feeling yucky. Feel better soon. What can we have the Tenders do for  you? Karen, do tell when your birthday is, please. We must have a ParTay!

    Chrissy, everyone (well not everyone) was trying to guess Stanzie's name. But someone actually guess it, and DorK missed it! So we are just having fun with it.

    Where is everyone? I'm heading out to the pool to look.

    good morning ladies, well I am up at a decent hour this am its only 8 tummy is still feeling off and could dry heave but better than yesterday. Thank you all for you prayers and concerns. I told my Onc last time and the time before that I get so sick to my stomach and he keeps prescribing different meds to fight the sickness but nothing seems to work on me it really sucks. I am definetly worried about the next three rounds I just dont know how I am going to do this again and again and again to myself. do you think 3 rounds of chemo might be enough? I am supposed to start doxetaxerol, I know I didnt spell that right, next time and maybe it wont be so hard on me as far as SE go but I am afraid to find out. My mom has been here the whole week and although it has been super helpful one full week is just too long, I have zero private time and I am a very private person in real life, I get no time alone with DH,and she plans on coming now every time to make up for not coming before. I am going to have to shorten it cause that will drive me insane. Maybe just the days the kids are in school and let AL and I have the weekend to ourselves. I dont know. ONe thing I do know is that I do not want to go to work tomorrow, I am definetly not feeling strong enough,but damn it I feel guilty, I shouldnt right? Question when you ladies started getting feeling back under your arm from he node surgery would you get little pains? I am freaking out that something is growing there can turmours grow during chemo?

    Ok I am going to try and put something in my tummy. on  good note I havent had a fever or caught the cold going around my house

    Hugs to you all

    Hi Lori! You missed me...Pants was standing behind my bar stool massaging my neck and guess I was totally hidden by him. Lets have a BIG dwink....have tons to do today so just popped in for a sec. Condo and townhouse stuff to take care of; shoppping to do including replenishing everything from our fridge/freezers; DD and 3 g'kids come to stay with us for a few days in the morning.Actually DD heads to ATL (4 hr drive) after driving 12 hrs overnight by herself, to get here, and we will have g'kids. Were going to take them out-of-town, but that fell thru cause of the disasters. SO will prob keep the 2 g'sons (cousins) and have other DD keep all 3 girls, then do stuff with the boys since they hardly ever get to be with each other. Last night celebrated signing the townhouse lease and getting her payments (yay!)....so had the bubbly.AND I miss my little netbook that the virus took over, so having to be on my desktop puter upstairs (gets pwetty warm w/o the a/c)....so not able to be on as much.

    Loved your dwunken slang, Chrissy! That was a fun post to wead. Gotta go....thinking of you all and hoping the gals not feeling well can see the dr and get taken care of!!OH, just saw your post Kymn...we were posting at the same time. I hear you on your parents being there TOO long, esp when you are feeling sickie. Glad you are a bit better though, and good idea to set some guidelines for your next chemo tx and your mom's visiting times. It is good to have the help, but you need your privacy too. Hang in there!!!! (((hugs)))

    Luv youse,

    Kath

    I stole your saying and posted it as my status for my facebook page today!  I just joined this board as I was just diagnosed and thank goodness there are some fun ladies out there.  That being said...I do have a few serious questions about drinking while having radiation.  I love my 1,2,3,4 glasses of wine each day LOL.  I am trying to wean myself down to 1 glass of red.  Do you have to quit entirely while going through the treatment?

    Yes, nice weather here. I'm a bit under the weather though which is probably good because I stopped drinking long enough to get some serious studying done yesterday. The big exam is only 2 weeks away!

    Sorry about your PC, Kathy? Is Netbook an Apple? DH is thinking about thinking about shopping for a new PC and I'm hoping he thinks a little longer since I know he will need my help with it and I just don't have time right now. We've got AP exams (DD2) and prom (DD1) and college (DD1) and summer (yay!) to think about... can't wait to get this exam over with...

    Hope everyone is having a super day! Kymn, you ok?

    Gail, a "netbook" is smaller than a "laptop", usually 8.5 to 10", and ours is an Acer brand. I wanted this small one to travel with (ours does not have a dvd slot), but then ended up using it downstairs, while watching tv. Prob is, I haven't backed up anything and I had saved a lot of pics on it and then deleted them from my camera. Bought a 1TB backup for my desktop but haven't even hooked that up! Thank God my DD will be here soon.....actually she drops the kids off tomorrow but returns on Sat, and she is one of the computer experts in our family (she has built several; some for us). Noticed a lot of proms here this weekend;wonder if any were scheduled last weekend when all our counties did not have power. Hope DD1 has a great time at hers!!!

    Oh I think I need a BIG pau hana later on, since we will have "young'uns" with us till Tuesday! Will really enjoy seeing them again though! THEN I will be ready for a long rest afterwards...lol.

    Gotta go run some errands, and replenish our food supply....haven't even done that yet! Ciao!

    Hi, loungies!!!  Welcome Travels.  You'll prob get a concensus of opinion here that its ok to drink during rads.   My onc/rads onc both said a glass of wine or a beer or two was okay during tx but not to get smashed every night.   Kymn, I did work during my tx but there were many days I called in sick because I just couldn't do it.   I felt guilty but only up to a point.   For once in my life, I put ME first.

    Happy Hump Day!!!   I did one of my "OMG I'm blond" things today and about gave DH a stroke!   I was taking my morning medicnes and absently-mindedly popped a capsule in my mouth and swallowed it.   (I was distracted by something on TV...)   The capsule is one of my breathing meds and goes in a little plastic vial that has a mouthpiece and the capsule is punctured by the vial and you inhale the medicine through the mouthpiece into your lungs.   All through the instructions is says many times in bold type....DO NOT SWALLOW!!!!    The second I swallowed that friggin' capsule I let out an oath that would have made even the most evil pirate proud!!!  

    we dug out the dosing info sheet and no where does it tell you what to do if you swallow a capsule--just MANY reminders NOT to.    So, called PCP--his nurse didn't bother to ask the doctor, she immediately told us to call the Poison Control Center and gave DH the number.   He called and it was an interesting experience.   The person who rec'd our call was a registered pharmacist and he was so calm and reassuring.   He asked what other meds I was taking; asked a few other questions; and said there shouldn't be a problem.   Advised that I go ahead and take another dose--but use the inhaler!!!   AND, then, he called back a couple hours later just to make sure everything was okay!!!  Now, that impressed me!!   So, keep that poison control number handy, cause it can be used for prescription meds, too!

    We've had a gawgeous day today but rain forecast for tomorrow afternoon--sorry, Wahine!!!

    Taking my dog beers out to the pool--hopead typos!!!)

     HD is still there!   I promise not to splash anyone today.   And, no fair dumping me out of my hammock--I've had a stressful day!

    HUGGSSSSS to all.........bottomsup!

    Hi girls,

    I am still trying to find the answer to the mysterious Stanzie's name.  Can someone help me, paleeeze? 

    Kymn, so sorry you are feeling so terrible. You will get through this. The party planning for your celebration has already begun. And sorry about your parents, I am sure they just want to help but I know how you feel. I would die if my folks came to visit me for a week. We love them yes, but really!! Glad that your Canucks pulled off a big OT win last night, they did it for you love!

    Kathy, sorry about your notebook. Have you tried doing a system restoration?  It just sux losing everything, especially photos. Oh, I see you here for Pau Hanna, here's a nice cold drinky for ya. You Alabamian's are still in my prayers...glad to hear that the Red Cross is helping. I thought of that when I went to my atm and saw that my bank is soliciting money for the red cross Bama relief. Enjoy the little ones.  You are really something, you stay so busy, I wish I had half your energy.

    Astorm, I thought they were your animals but I know what you mean about finding twins on the net. Good luck with your exam and all that is happening with your kids. I was where you are this time last year but only have one child to worry about.

    Junie, let's start some trouble, ya feeling onery tonight? I hope you are feeling well. Whenever I vist the lounge, I always stop into the chapel and pray for ya girl. And do you know I brought the chapel in while you had the long hospital stay.I also carry one in my trunk as I bought two on ebay when I got the one, free shipping for a second one so I saids to my darn self, "self, why not buy two"? Lori decorated it will booze upholstery too. You probably missed that, maybe she can post it again. Ah, memories, etched between the corners of my mind.

    HD, so glad your eye in unpatched but really,  can't you do something about that tongue sticking out?

    Lori, your new avatar is adorable, you look like ten years old. I hope it is warmer there. It is crazy here, we were near 90 yesterday and it got so cold today. I sometimes think the world is going to end soon...let's hope things calm down with these crazy weather patterns, especially for my dear friends in Bama, MS and GA.

    Stanzie, hope you are feeling better. I get worked up too when something does not feel right, this whole BC thing is so life changing and definately not for the better.

    Beanie, dahling, me hopes your tummy is feeling better. I had Pants bring you some pepto something, hope it works. I feel like bobbing again, ya in? love ya sweet gal.

    NM, I really appreciate your pics in the morning. Since I have been oversleeping, I have not seen them until evening but always a riot you are. 

    Claire, I thought of you as a biker chick riding in the rain today. What's for dinner, hopefully not stinky fish. Can you make me a filet mignon? 

    Karen, hope you are feeling better.

    And Chrissy, my dahling, so glad your DD is doing so much better. I really miss seeing you here, can you come and drink with me more often?

    Well thank you girls for the advise on DH, it is appreciated and i do not take it lightly. He is doing very well with the dogs. On Monday night, we had an outdoor fire and my Bella actually let him pet her for the first time ever. I have had her for just two years and she is a changed dog around him now. I am still being careful and he is still living with his mother. I need time.

    So I got some really sad news today and cried on my way home from work. Damn, it is always something.  My BC friend that I work with has been on disability for about a month. The last time I spoke with her she told me that she had a lession on her spine and was getting further tested. I found out on my way out tonight that she has fuggin bone cancer. She is my age or a few years older but OMG, this gal has so many issues. Her DH left her while fighting BC and her four children are only half supportive. I don't know what to do for her, I need to do something. I am tearing up now as I type it.  Please all pray for her. She held my hand early in my battle and even drove me to the doc in Philadelphia after I fired my first PS.I hate cancer even more. It is time to numb my brain. Mitch, will you come drink with me? 

    Love ya girls, I really do. You are each very special. And a big fat welcome to travelers, we are a wonderful group, home to see you around. I hope you are able to tolerate drinking a glass, or 2 or six of wine. I will be praying for you too!! Peace to all.

    Oh My Gosh Junie!!!! I know you all were terrified I was terrified just reading your post!! So glad you are allright. Yes Poison control and I became friends with my DD. We found her one day sitting outside on a table sucking on that spray off - mosquito repellant! It was way up in a cabinet that as a 3 year old she figured out how to climb up! ( she also cooked frozen waffles one night at 4:00am one morning and burned them which woke us up) Anyway, called poison control and he said well she probably didn't drink much as it tastes horrible (no, didn't ask how he knew) but looked at the brand new bottle and there was a good amount gone but he told us to have her drink something... can't remember as she is almost 13 now but they also called back to check on her. Of course they also noted we had called when ate some other things which now excapes me anyway, he said I'm going to send you some info and put you all on our "regulars' list so we can look up her file.... Then we were thinking oh shoot they are going to turn us in to DEFACS or something! But she has done fine. 

    HD!!! Ha Ha I've had lots of nick names but never had Mitch - just be careful you drunken lovely ladies and not substitute a B!!! 

    Welcome Travels! 

    Kymn - poor thing!!! Of course you shouldn't feel guilty about work - you are going through chemo and also sounds like you need some down time from all the help your Mom is giving you. I got Shingles once and when I called my dr his first responce was you are too young why on earth do you think you have Shingles? I told him about about my Mom living with us and he cut me off and said Yep you most likely do have Shingles!LOL! Just talk to your Mom, she will understand. I need my own private time too and when you don't get it it is very stressful - you do not need more stress! Hope you and Beanie feel better!

    And geez, now I have to think twice about taking all those fukkitols after reading about the SE's. 

    WELL, DH just got here and we are going to have dinner. He is a great cook, unlike me. I am good though at the microwave.

    Party on, my lovies!

    Good evening, Loungettes!  Had to get an early start this am, so I'm late getting on the boards.  I want a BIB Pink Elephant--the drink not the animal--while I put my feet up after a long but very fulfilling day. 

    Welcome, Travelers!  Great to have a new face in the lounge!  Ask your rad onc about drinking during treatment, it seems some say no not any and others say a little is ok.  Personally, I don't see the harm in one or two glasses of wine a day, but then, here I am in the lounge. . . . 

    I think I've figured out why I've been having such strange and disturbing nightmares the last few weeks--not enough doctor's appointments in my life!  I have gone from doctor's appointments every few weeks to none until August.  All of a sudden, at the 5 year mark (cancerversary was March 9th) all the appointments have dropped off.  It's almost as scary as having one every time I turned around!  

    Seems we had our 2 days of spring, last Friday and last Monday.  Now we are well into mud season, and several more days of rain predicted.  Sigh.  

    The way my house is built into a hill my bedroom window is 1 1/2 stories off the ground.  One very early morning bb (before the beast), in the very early spring, when it was just light enough to be able to tell the window from the wall, the dogs started growling and barking.  Serously growling and barking and looking at the window.  So I, bleary eyed and half asleep, sit up and look at the window.  There is a big shadow there.  Being half asleep and still bleary eyed, I reach over and put on my glasses, then turn on the bedside lamp and look again.  There looking in a us is a young bull moose.  Keep in mind the window is about 15 feet off the ground.  He's standing there looking at us, we're sitting there looking at him.  After a couple minutes he snorts and wanders off.  Later in the morning I went out around that side of the house and found his hoofprints in the snow under the window--big around as a dinner plate.  If only he wasn't so close to the house, and I had a moose permit, and it was moose season and I lived in moose hunting territory. . . . 

    Well, I'm getting tired, so I think I'll hit the shower and then the hammock.  Not used to working hard all day 5 days a week, forgotten how much like, well, work it is!  But Sadie needs some play time first, so I'll be back in a while.

    I love you Junie, never give up. But what did ya screw up now?Kiss + hugs + Pants is sending you extra brain cells (any tiing is possible in the lounge).....

    Hoping for an update from dear Kymn. My heart is especially heavy this evening. I am weeping again over my friend Cindy. I feel like a terrible friend hiding from her here on BC.org. 

    I got da blues, got a period, only second time since October.The last time was the day after my exchange surgery in december but it was very light. Worried that tammy is not working. Any of my breast friends here who were premenstural and taking tamox?  Sorry to tawk bout such un-fun stuff, dorK likes to be fun. I am also nervous over my pending cash out refi. They are giving me trouble with my declining income and I really need this to get out of debt which I never had until bc hit me. I am getting busy at work, I have over 30 loans in process now and can make money but I need to pay off my car and my credit card to continue to hold my home. I love my house so much and am having trouble keeping up despite my flawless credit. I am still doing alright but my savings is dwindling sooo quick. 

    Pants, if my loan does not go thorugh, can you float me a million bucks? I'd do anything and I mean ANYTHING!

    Hi LadieZ.....

    Am back from the conference which was most interesting.  But now, back at work trying to catch up.  Not sure about dinner, but something tummy-friendly as hotel food left me queasy.  Now I could believe this was due to the wine if it had been only dinner, but lunch too???

    It may just be going around.

    Going back to my work now, but wanted to check in.  I have a Monday deadline, so think I need to get it in gear.  Walked a mile back from the end of the Light Rail, so think I got in enough exercise.  Remember, I was dragging my carry-on, plus took a wrong turn in the airport so walked 3x the distance from gate to Light Rail.

    Was nice connecting with some old friends, some of whom I had not seen in more than ten years.  It is nice to be remembered well.  And made some new contacts. - Claire

    Kathy - you are so lucky to have a computer expert in the family! Hope she can recover your data for you.

    Junie - I guess it's ok to laugh now? I've called Poison Control a few times... a couple of times when the kids were little (one brushed her teeth with cement tint and we suspected the other one ate the dog's heart worm med)... oh, and I ate my dog's antibiotic once. I pop so many pills these days it's hard not to make a mistake once in awhile! Glad that worked out ok for you.

    I had a crazy interaction with a parent-volunteer at DD2's school yesterday. The kids call her "the parking lot Nazi"... she was really nasty to me and commanded me to roll down my window so she could yell at me... really weird and awful... couldn't sleep last night and then had nightmares about my kids. I will never understand why some people feel they need to be rude. I'm a nice person, raised by a southern mother who taught that you catch more flies with honey, and to smile no matter what you need to say to someone... anyway, today I decided to park on the street and warned the kids (carpool) that when they crossed the parking lot they should be careful because the crazy biotch is very distracting to drivers in an area where there are lots of obstacles. So, I was sitting there thinking that if she approached my car I would suggest she get into counseling because she obviously has control issues. When the girls got in the car, I said, "hmm, I don't see my friend today..." and one of the girls said that she heard several parents complained about her demeanor and behavior yesterday. Then she proceeded to tell me that she knows the woman's kids and they are mortified AND...

    The woman IS A THERAPIST!

    Holy carp! I'm no longer thinking she should be fired as the parking lot Nazi... I'm thinking her license as a therapist should be revoked. I'm just imagining some fragile individual (like myself) being attacked by her and jumping off a roof! They also mentioned that she is divorced and bitter... well there goes my alternate insult to her: "I'll just bet your husband is impotent." (with a smile of course)

    Beanie - just saw your post. I'm sure you will be just fine, but it is nice to get that seal of approval from time to time... mine was last week. Just don't let them take away your Beanglish! I think Fukitols are safe for driving but I did see rugburns on the warning label so wear your seat belt, please.

    They now make it in a liquid form

     but the Cognac element probably precludes driving safely.

    OMG, Just thought I would pop in for a sec...but noooooooo there are at least a million gazillion posts!!! Had to read fast, but oh dear Dorothy, my heart breaks for your friend Cindy, and all the pain you are going through trying to do the right thing. This disease  SUCKS BIg time!!!  I know you are a good friend, and I think by being there for her, listening to her, and praying for her, it will show her you care. Will keep her in my prayers too, and I am so sorry. Glad though that you and DH are taking your time (well you are at least!) and seeing if you want to get back together or not. Very glad he is nice to your doggie now, but wonder if he has really changed and can keep that up? I hope so.

    Dang it, JUNIE!!!! Do I need to come over there and chew you out? You scared all of us by taking that capsule.....gawd girl, did you think we didn't have enuf excitement here? J/K. But boy that scared me to read what happened....and how easy it is to make that mistake. GLAD you will be okay though!!!!

    Beans, Hoping and praying your appts will go perfectly well! We all know how nerve-wracking it is though till you get the good results, which I know you will get. Miss you, but darn I have so much to do tonight I shouldn't even be here now. DD and kids will be here at daybreak and I have soooo much more to clean up!!!!

    Weird therapist, Gail....how SCARY!!! That woman is loony. Glad everyone complained!!!!

    Wanna respond to more, but really gotta go. Hugs to everyone, esp those girlz not feeling so great tonight. Drink up for me, will you???
