Morning! Brrrrrrrrr.....14 out there. Juliet, it looks like Buster will be an "inside doggie" today! Sorry about that!Rita....you sound like YOU need a nap! I bet you are just having a ball!
Julieb....hopefully you are at home and ALL DONE WITH SURGERY!!!!
Mich101....yeah I'm with you there re: mamm's. Mine was so far under my arm that of course it never would have shown up. So while getting the "all clear" is so good to hear I know I will never be sure again. I just look at it as a reason to keep doing the self-exams (as if we needed a reason after all this!)
Carolberrypatch/LittleC - we are concerned and hoping you are OK with your treatments and just superbusy enjoying the holidays.
Blackjack...how did the closet guy work out? I went on California Closets website and I learned that they are custom designed so I dropped that idea immediately. Custom=mucho bucks.
I still have most of my holiday stuff up but I am starting on the living room today...tree will come down and all the little chotchkes (sp?). Right now I am just dumping it in the basement. Tomorrow or Friday I will take down everything else and then next week I will spend one hour every day going thru and packing it up. That way the task won't seem so daunting. Then on to .....TAXES!!!! Blech.
My cold is still hanging on but we did manage to go out for our anniversary...just to Giordano's for pizza and I came right home. DH woke up around 4, complaining of a stuffy nose which of course he had to wake me up and tell me ALL about! Yeah...hello. It's 4am and your nose is stuffy? Supposed to go to niece's tomorrow for a delalyed Christmas as she was at Disney but I guess it will be a "wait and see". Tonight.....I have some munchies and Korbel but I think it will be a soup night!
I hope you all have a wonderful New Year's Eve.....enjoy these moments in our lives. And hug those you love!

Good Morning Girls...
The New Year is almost here and what a year it has been. As I sit here and reflect on all the good and bad that has taken place in one year....one thing I know for sure is that without all of you here life would be so empty. This year has been about new friendship's, current treatments, mamo's,surgeries and most of all inner peace. We come here to support our sister's who are going through or have gone through this bc journey. We cry, we laugh, we rant, we hug, we support but most of all we give big hugs to each other to let them know we care. As Rita said this is the best journeying we can do. A BIG thank you and hug to Rita for starting this support chain.
I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year's Eve....as Wendy's said enjoy the moments in our lives...hug the one's you love. Wishing each and everyone of you a healthy and happy 2009 !!!
Looking forward to seeing many of you next year at the Lunch Bunch....
Remember to be healthy...be happy...enjoy the life you have and live it to the fullest....
Happy New Year 2009

Something a little different to welcome 2009.
Good Advice to Live By
by Author Unknown
If you want your dreams to come true, don't oversleep. The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention. Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important. The best vitamin for making friends....B1. The 10 commandments are not multiple choice. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts. Minds are like parachutes.. .they function only when open. Ideas won't work unless YOU do. One thing you can't recycle is wasted time. One who lacks the courage to start has already finished. The heaviest thing to carry is a grudge. Don't learn safety rules by accident. We lie the loudest when we lie to ourselves. Jumping to conclusions can be bad exercise. A turtle makes progress when it sticks its head out. One thing you can give and still keep...is your word. A friend walks in when everyone else walks out. AND FINALLY...
The pursuit of happiness is the chase of a lifetime!!!

Good morning everyone......isn't it grand!!!! While I think most of us do a fair job of living everyday, it is always nice to reach the year milestone where the expectation for almost everyone is to resolve to DO it BETTER no matter what you are doing. I like this time of year for just that. Even if I don't completely feel it, the enthusiasm I hear around me will take hold and soon I am feeling just as eager to MAKE my mark too. I am ( this year in particular ) so happy to be sharing here with all of you. Last time this year it was sort of a non-event for me. I just wanted to get through txs and that was about as far as I could push resolve --- just please, let me get through them all. Some of you are at that point right now and you can't imagine how close my heart is with you there. Lets just get through them all and then we will shine and be oh so bright.
So --- lets all celebrate, even if it is with a warm bowl of soup, that we have another time of renewal, a time to forget yesterday's woes, and hardships, and 365 more days of total opportunity to live to whatever our fullest potential is that day. I can't begin to properly tell you how thankfull I am that I am here and that I have so many beautiful spirits to lift me up when I am down, wipe away a tear or two, make me happy when I'm a little sad and share deep friendship when I feel a little alone. When I need soothing and protecting I just turn on my computer, hit a couple keys and there all of you are ---- like a field full of roses. I don't even have to say what is going on with me........just having you near produces such comfort ---- because you already know --- because you were and are ahead of me on this path. So thank you....from Oregon clear to here. May we all have a most fabulous 2009.

Good Morning All
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Well I'm back, I now have internet service, and a new laptop. It was a terrific Christmas, the laptop is my new connection to the world. YaaHoo. Thank you all for the Christmas cards and thank you Michelle, Wendy and Laura for the wonderful 1st Annual Christmas Party.
It will take me weeks to catch up on the posts and learn all about the new people.
I want to thank all of you for a year of support, laughs, tears, friendship and most of all the love that you have shown me. You mean the world to me and although this year has been difficult...to say the least....you have given me joy.
I love you all.

Just reading through the posts this morning and thinking how happy I am to have wandered into the place all of you have created.
Jackie I loved your list of advice this morning as I love your quotes every morning !
Hoping JulieB is in her own bed and resting comfortably this morning .
Sending huge thanks to each of you who have done PM's with me, answering my never ending questions and reassuring me that we are all very strong and are going to get through this life just fine. Special thanks to Michele and Wendy for extra words of support and strength.....
Looking forward to the January lunch and to the next year, hoping that for all of us it will be the best year !!!!
hugs and love to all

Hey there,
Nope- not in bed-- Julie b came home about 9:30 last night and was up at 6:30am to the plaintive cry of "mommy- my underpants are wet!" Sigh- and so it goes!
Everything went ok-- except that I came home with a blasted drain again. aaarrgh! Was told there would be none-- but only explanation given was from a nurse who guessed there "was more bleeding than expected." ?? I'm bruised all over and very sore. Too early to tell how things look at the moment- although I think I'm going to be happier with the lifted (again) side as it's now on the same plane as the implant breast and not hanging two inches below. He went in through all the same incisions. (Although now I get a new drain hole scar-- 4 of these now! One breast is named Frank (enstein) and the other is officially Igor). On antibiotics again- God willing there will be no infection this time. Was sent home with a scrip for some painkiller--Nor something, which I didn't even fill. Hate them and anyway, have to take care of the kiddos for most of today, so can't be out of it. Just moving slowly and trying to make my 6 yr old understand I'm just not up to Wii tennis!
Question--- I have really strange bruises on my shoulders and all around my collarbone! Little red puncture marks in a few of them. What the heck? Shoulders maybe from being sat up-- but the others? Anyone have any idea? Nurse Jan? Just how rough are they with you when you are out of it. I know I'm dead weight, but geez, am I that heavy? And don't get the collarbone ones.
My dh's brother and family are in tonight and they are all going bowling. So I'm looking forward to relaxing, spending some time with a non kid friendly video and kicking this year out on its a**. I won't be able to join you on the 15th this time, but know that you all were one of the few bright spots to this year and definitely helped me get through it all.... I may have lost my breast, but I made a bunch of really wonderful, intelligent, funny, inspiring friends.

So happy to hear you are home and only a little worse for the wear Julie......I am wracking my brain about the puncture marks on the collarbone and I am coming up dumb even the nurse in me....some sort of reaction to some kind of tape or immobilizer is what I would have thought but the puncture marks are bizarre....I can only tell you that at our Surgical Center we are really very gentle and careful moving our patients , I still have my brain in thinking mode and when I call the girls I work with later I will toss out the question to them ......have a good as possible day , I think we are all very anxious to welcome a new year
*hugs*

Whew! My family is gone and I need to regroup and get laundry started before running into town to pick up a veggie or a fruit tray to take this evening and before trying to organize this house a little!
I just wanted to thank every one of you for your friendship and suport this past year. As we celebrate the approaching New Year this evening...each in our own ways....may we all wish for a cure and a healthy year for each of us. May we also wish that others in need may find us and join us, expanding our ranks and friendships, thus allowing each of us to give back a portion of what we have received from each other.
Happy New Year!

Me too! Me too! I also want to wish everyone a wonderful 2009. I just think it will be okay regard ing our health. New ladies will come on, however, and we have to be ready for them. I actually had a good 2008. It was the 2007 that was a bit tricky for me. Yet, I did meet you all, and that is a good thing.
We are going to zoo lites at Lincoln Park. Nothing like celebrating a new year with the gorillas!
Julieb, I am sooooooo glad you are home. You are lucky to not have to take those pain meds. LIke you, I hate them. They make me feel odd, which admittedly is not hard to do. When I had all my root canals, I took these huge tylenol pills and they worked fine without affecting my mind.
So raise a glass of good cheer; be it soup, water or wine to 2009! (I think frankly with the economy it was a lousy year for many, with or without cancer!).

Hi JulieChicago,
I'm so glad you are home, and not feeling too bad. I had the lift surgery too, and I'm so happy I did. You are so right about the hanging two inches below thing. I was lucky, and didn't have to have any drains, but if you need them they are a good thing. If too much fluid builds up inside it can be very painful. A friend of mine had her drain removed too soon, and she ended up in terrible pain, and going in to have it drained on an emergency basis. I think the med is Norco, and it is a narcotic so you are so right about taking care of the kiddos. I hope you don't have too much pain. I just hated wearing a bra 24/7, and felt so much better when I could finally sleep without it!
I can only think the puncture marks came from a towel clip or something. That is the instrument sometimes used to hold drapes during surgery. I would definitely ask the doc when you see him, as that is certainly unexpected! I have seen cases in surgery where they actually used a stitch in the skin to hold something on during the case, but I can't think what that would be in breast surgery. Let me know if you find out...it is curious.
I'm smiling at your humor with the names for your "girls." I felt the same about mine, but now more than a year later, they have really improved. I'm just happy to have them reasonably close to the same size! Also, I'm sorry, but I was really laughing at your car experience with your little ones. It reminded me of a few I had too, though at the time I was not laughing.
Feel better soon, and try not to overdo. I know, almost impossible for a mom of such young ones.
Jackie....Loved the quote today! I can almost smell that bean soup cooking, and what a great cold weather treat.
Leesa....Happy to hear you are back in business with the laptop.
Blackjack....Now Dr. Alexander is leaving RNS. Going to be like a very different place, and no breast imaging.
Wendy....Enjoy the Korbel. We are going out to dinner at 5, and will probably be home way before midnight. Man, are we getting old! My DH is on trauma call, so he likes to go to bed early. And did I mention, he's old? I'll be watching the ball fall on tv all alone. It's fine with me, and not the first time. Like you said, I'm just glad he's healthy. Hope you soon will be too!
Rita...Thanks so much for enabling all of us to get to know each other. Dare I say, even bc has given me something to be thankful for?
Where are you Carolberry patch, and LittleC. We are all thinking about you.
Jan...So happy you are coming to lunch, and I hope I get ther too. I just thought about you a few minutes ago, because I opened a can of diet coke. I have switched to organic milk though.
Happy New Year to all!

I'm popping in to say Happy New Year to everyone, and I thank you all for your friendship and support. You are all very special to me.
I'm sorry that I will have to miss the lunch in January. I would have loved to see everyone again.
Here's to health, happiness, friendship, family (and pets!), peace, hope and finding a cure.
Happy New Year everyone!

Hi Girls...HAPPY NEW YEAR'S EVE!
Shelby is here - dh is making us crab legs and asparagus. We plan on watching a movie - rarely do we make it til midnight.
Tomorrow we're all going to my cousin's house in St Charles. I have 4 boy cousins - all the same family - they're all in their 30's... between the 4 of them, they have 9 kids under the age of 9 (and one is in the oven, so next x-mas we'll have 10 kids under the age of 10)! I really like their wives... they're having a breakfast/brunch at noon. It will be great to see all of them. I just finished wrapping 9 gifts... one for each kid.
This past year has - for the most part - been a good one. It's great knowing you girls... I am hoping that we will all be healthy this year... thanks for always being here! Hugs to each of you!
Cheers to world peace and a CURE!

Morning! Well....I made it to 11:15 and then gave up and went to bed. Up at 4am, sneezing. My cocktail last night was one mimosa, heavy on the OJ. Woooohoooo! I am such a party girl! And I found napkins to use for our munchies from 2000!Julieb....sorry about the drain but smerf's right....fluid build-up can be horribly painful. Don't know what those punctures could be either....very strange! Maybe you were abducted by aliens and they performed experments on you!
Laura....you will be right next door to me today! Have fun with all the cousins!
Blackjack...how was casino night?
Leesa....sooooo glad to see you back on line! Say "hi" to Vic for us!
Jackie....loved your quotes from yesterday. You are so right...can't recycle time. It will be my mission for 2009 to not waste one single day as BC, if it taught me nothing else, was to live each day as if it were my last, and make it count for something, anything.
Everyone else I've missed.....you mean the world to me and have made this journey so much easier. I wish for all who read this....a Happy and Healthy 2009 with much joy and love and happiness.
And I echo Laura.....to a CURE!!!!!!

Hi ladies. Just a follow up for Rita. My scan turned out good. NED. I have my every 6 month mammo in about a month.
Onc didn't give me a new appointment? I think they forgot, so I'll call them in a few months.
Talk to you all later.

There are people whom one loves immediately and forever. Even to know they are alive in the world with one is quite enough.
-- Nancy SpainGood morning everyone
This happens often to me. In the note I wrote yesterday I talked about what a comfort all of you are --- just knowing that you are out there just by hitting a few typewriter keys......then this quote comes this morning. Quotes come to my in-box along with several other sources......generally, I come here and read first --- just for this reason. Had a quiet New Years and asleep early. Put Rod Serling's Twilight Zone on. Have seen them all countless times, but it is a little bit of a tradition. Earlier we did venture over to a friend's house for a New Year's glass of wine....which turned into several but we were still home early. I have very little planned for today I worked in my room the other day......every so often I think I have dreamed up a way to re-arrange my furniture.......well, after much grunting and groaning and tugging and shoving ---- it is still just the way it was.....but a bit cleaner because all the furniture got moved. Guess I will never learn. I only do this when Dh is at work since he knows the likely outcome. Just grumbles the whole time that it is all a wasted effort on his part. I don't know about that.....my furniture is much cleaner on the back side than his --- ha-ha-ha.
Due to get into the 40's and all I can say is hurry. With our non-winter so far, I could just as soon skip the cold air. Seems so strange to me.....not one morsel of snow and it's January. Did have an ice storm or two....but no snow even then. I don't mind snow...I rather like it......hmmmm. I missed my summer this past year....now I'm missing what I consider winter, but it's ok this time.
I second all of Wendy's great thoughts and cheers to you Brenda. Wonderful news to start your New Year.
I'll be checking back later.

Hi ladies. Just wanted to say Happy New Year to all. Here's to a healthy, happy, and safe 2009 for all of us.
I couldn't make it to midnight...that's ok, because I worked today. Now, I'm home and relaxing and about the watch the Tournament of Roses parade that I DVR'd.
Enjoy your day! Hugs....

YEA Brenda! I was thinking about you and the scans! Thanks so much for checking in and letting me know your good news. Now you've only got to go through the formality of the mammo in another month and you'll have a "doctor reprieve"! Way to go! That's a great way to start the new year!
Jackie, I can't believe that you haven't even had any snow. How I wish I could have sent some of ours your way!
Sounds like you partied all night, Blackjack! You amaze me! My poor feet wouldn't have taken 10 minutes of dancing in 2 inch heels! LOL Glad you enjoyed the night. It sounds like it was a fun way to welcome in 2009!
HAPPY NEW YEAR to each of you! Let's hope that 2009 will be kind to all of us.
We took the tree and Christmas decorations down this afternoon. It seems so good to have my living room back to normal, although I love the Christmas season and enjoyed this one so much more than the past two.
Welcome back to the online world Leesa. We've missed you! HUGS!
Well, I'm going to grab a mug of green tea and plop in the recliner for a bit with a good book. I'm not into the college football games but will enjoy the relaxation after this hectic past week.
Catch you all later!

Good to hear the good news, Brenda.
Okay, Jackie, which Twilight Zone is your favorite. I like The Hitchhiker...very scary.
Last night was actually a bust in that I had insomnia and was up almost all night. I was awake until five. I have no idea what was causing this except that I have been sleeping late, coffee at ten and not six, arimidex at ten and not six and staying up late. I wish I had been dancing with Blackjack in the casino and not fretting about being awake in the wee hours of the new year. As a result, I felt horrid today and not from partying. That has to turn around as I go back to work on Monday.
We went to see "Doubt" and it was disturbing. I liked it, but overheard many say they did not. It is about the sex abuses in the priesthood during the 60s, yet it was unclear (thus the title Doubt) that the priest was in fact guiilty of any wrong doing. Maybe this caused my insomnia! I do better with movies with stronger resolutions and this one left me wondering just about everything.
I am getting a thyroid test as it is suggested if one has gone through raditaion. Has anyone else done that?
Have a great evening.

Oh Laura....I'm so anxious to see/know what picture yo9u were posting. ....all I see is a spot that says your bandwidth was exceeded and you need to upgrade. Hmmmmm.
Susan....I like the Hitchhiker as well but there are a couple of science fiction type things done long ago that I adore. One is about a space craft --- really looks like a flying saucer and it is visiting another planet in the solar system. So happens that it is a race of giants and this woman is so upset, and afraid that she goes after the space-men and their space-craft. After she basically does the men in it pans to the disabled spacecraft and you see an American Flag painted on the side. The other also has to do with space beings. This time aliens come to earth. They have a book with them and the scientists are able to make out the title but nothing inside the book. In the meantime....all the people of the earth get very comfortable with the aliens who start booking flights back to their home planet. At long last the one male scientist if getting ready to board the spacecraft as they have finally found some room for him.....and the lady scientist tries to stop him from going as they have finally found that the book entitled To Serve People is in fact, a cookbook. Door is already closing and the scientist is not able to get off the ship but knows that soon he will be some alien's meal. Almost all of the Twilight Zone shows are fantastic.
Well, I have to get ready for work tomorrow so I'd better go......Sounds like you do need work for present just to keep yourself on an even keel Susan. When you retire.....you can work with your times as 6 O'clock is almost too early for anything....isn't it. I don't even get up till 6:30 a.m. I do think every now and then though we have a night where the sand man tries very hard to elude us. I hope you get things working right soon. It is rotten to have a didn't sleep hangover. They are nearly as bad as the other kind.
I'll be yakking at you tomorrow.

**HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU WONDERFUL LADIES**
I'm so glad to kiss (most of) 2008 goodbye, but am grateful to have met you all... you really have made such a difference in my life, and I feel blessed to know you.
Love, Peace, and Hugs!!! Juliet

Well now that the holidays are finally winding down (and I have a few days off) I'm trying to catch up with things left and right.
Juliechicago - I'm envious of you being done with your surgery. Too bad about the drain, but keep reminding yourself that it's temporary. I can't wait to get my surgery over with, right now we're still waiting to hear back from my insurance.
I finally had my mammo and BSGI done this week. The BSGI took about 40 minutes - 4 x 10 minute uptake pictures - 2 for each side. We did bilateral, even though my mastectomy side supposedly has no breast tissue only because I have been having this weird pain in the same right upper outer area that my tumor was found.
It's kind of a long story, but basically I was told that my mammo showed new calcifications that weren't present on my last mammo. Panic ensued (on my part). Waiting for the BSGI report was completely nerve-wracking, especially since it took until the end of the following day for me to hear my results. My surgeon who ordered it had already left for vacation so I had to wait for the guy filling in to call me. I was trying to be cool around the family, but I was completely overracting and panicking inside. Finally he called and told me my BSGI was negative. PHEW!
The calcifications on the mammo don't seem to be a huge concern since the radiologists recommended a 6 month follow-up, but I'm still going to talk to my regular surgeon about it when he gets back. I do feel a LOT less concerned since the BSGI was negative. The more I read about the BSGI test, the more I felt good about it. It's supposed to be very good at finding really tiny cancerous lesions and that's what I really was concerned about with these calcifications.
Have you guys read this post about Lasofoxifene? http://community.breastcancer.org/forum/73/topic/726306
It's only approved and being marketed for osteo right now, but the numbers for reducing br. ca. recurrence are really impressive. I plan on asking my onc about this next week.
Wishing everyone a wonderful and healthy 2009!

Morning! Susan...I was up at 2:30 this am! I stayed in bed until 4 and then gave up. I'm sorta glad tho as I went downstairs and caught an old movie "The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming". So funny...I haven't seen that in years.Rita...my "Christmas Crap" as Zap says is all down too. BUT....I just threw it in the basement. What a mess.
Rene....thanks for that post re: Fablyn (I think that's it....lasofoxifene). You ERPR+ ladies should check this out! I will ask too when I see the onc on the 13th...sounds sooooo promising! Kater...you should def. check this out and like...RIGHT NOW!
Blackjack....have you recovered? You need to check out lasofoxifene as well....This is a pill you might actually take! lol
Laura....I didn't get a pic either!
Jackie...I remember that T zone as well....remember yelling...it's a cookbook!!!!!!
Juliet....Hugs back at you! Any nibbles on the job front?
Brenda...YAY!!!!! Whew.....
Cold still around but since this is my first one in over 3 years I'm not complaining...too much. For any of you who enjoyed "Swingtown" there is a marathon on Ch 180 (comcast)...that's Bravo...starting at 9am. I think I will get my day going, after all I've been up for hours! Hmmmm....should I start working in the basement or start organizing for taxes? Great choice, isn't it!!!!!!!!
Have a great one today.....not too bad out.

Morning everyone!
Susan, I had that "can't get to sleep" syndrome during the holidays, too.........several nights in fact. Although I usually blame everything on the Arimidex, I think mine was caused by an overactive mind that wouldn't shut down and having too many things that I wanted and needed to do. It's no fun and neither is the next day. Last night I had no trouble falling asleep!
Rene..so glad that the test came out negative. I would have been a "basket-case" waiting for the results. HUGS! I am going to read up on the lasofoxafene. I've never heard of it but I'm interested in anything that helps prevent recurrences. Thanks for sharing.
Susan, nobody has mentioned a thyroid test to me but I guess it makes sense after radiation. I'll put it on my list of things to ask about, too.
Well, I need to get moving instead of sitting here. One of my friends (another teacher) who moved to the Champaign area is picking me up in a few hours to go to the riverboat today. She's running out of vacation time and wants a little excitement before she has to go back on Monday, and of course, I can ALWAYS be talked into going to the boat!
I'll be back later. Everyone have a good day!
Rita

Morning all.....hmmm, Laura. maybe it's me but your picture didn't come through to me. Do you think it's on my end. Darn.
Got to work today --- poor me huh !!!! Well I have been off for two weeks so the only true complaint is no paychecks. I enjoyed the time off --- something that the former bosses never would have done. Still, sometimes we need a new broom.....the other realty companies in town took more time off around the holidays.
Well, I need to get going but will check in later.
