Hi Valstim52 (and all of you). Haven't been on these boards in several weeks. Life does get in the way but Valstim52 you will note that we all began where you are. I'm 8 years out and still going strong so hang in there. We may not come on often but if you need to reach out please do not hesitate to PM (click on our name to send a private message). I and these wonderful ladies will help as much as possible with prayer, advice, resources.

Hello iLinda, and a very belated Happy Birthday. 70 - YAY!!!
This is my first time on in a few months but hope to start checking in again a little more often, or at least once or twice a week. Glad you are doing okay.
Hello to all. Trust your silence, like mine, is just that "life" has gotten in the way and all is relatively well for you all.

Some of my BCo friends are coming to my timeshare in Daytona Beach FL November 5-10. Anyone in the area or wanting to fly in and join us are very welcome (as long as you are flexible on our sleeping arrangements which can involve sharing a bed or sleeping on an air mattress). We've gotten together for 4-6 days every year, this is year 7. PM me if interested.

Hello ladies! My BC journey began September 29, 2017. I had surgery December 8 and next week I will begin chemotherapy. Although my cancer is hormone positive, it is mildly positive so it has to be treated more like triple negative.
I'll be on for rounds of TC. I'm going to try Dignicap to help with hair loss. I don't know what this part of the journey will be like, but one thing I do know is God is in control. I'll do my part and trust Him for the rest. 😊

Hello FaithWalker22, sorry to meet you in this forum but happy you found BCo as it's a wonderful place to find support and understanding. I don't get on nearly as much as in the past but if at any time, I mean any time, you feel alone and need me just PM (click on my screen name) which will send me a message to my personal email.
Hang in there. The beginning is the worst but you can do this, especially with Him leading you.

Hello FaithWalker22, Bless you! I like (I am going to call your "email name", already! It speaks volumes! I am not on as much, but do look in to see if folk are here. As patoo said there is support here. Just reading what others have posted, can give some strength. I am older and learned a lot of what the medical treatment" is for today. I am "HER positive" and receive Herceptin every 3 weeks, as maintenance med, I will be 20 yr Survivor in November. Please read some of my past posts. Certainly a journey, keep your "Faith"!!

Hey Patoo and ILinda-- thanks for your welcome. The BC is actually slightly positive but it behaves more like a triple negative. I started 4 rounds of TC 2/23. I feel good and I'm just trusting and believing God to do His part as I do mine. ILinda, so glad you arr 20 years BC free!!

Sincerely,
Llinda

Hello FaithWalker22, I just was re-reading your post and my response. I am coming up on 20 years in November. However, with many trials along the way. I just wanted to be clear " not smooth sailing" The Lord has been with me!!! So hang in there, certainly, with your "FaithWalk"!!
Sincerely

Hi Everyone!
Just checking in! All is well with me. Some days are wonderful and then I have a bad day. But all in all, the good outnumber the bad as each month go by. I stay positive and keep moving. Hope everyone is doing well too!

Hi angelfaith456, glad to see you checking in and letting us know you are coming along. Brings a smile to my face when I log in (infrequently) and see a post on this thread.
Pray everyone else is also doing okay and getting on with life.

Hello All, I hope all is as well as can be for everyone!
Patoo glad to hear from you.
Besides having edema in my left arm, had to have it wrapped, back in October, Nov. and part of Dec. Oh was I a "case", but I made it! So now I have to have a sleeve and gauntlet. It happened and I wasn't paying attention, I am not a small person and just thought, this arm is looking swollen! I was in 19th year of this journey, but was told, "it can happen"! Okay so much for me!
Everyone Have a Safe 4th of July!!
Sincerely,
Llinda

ILinda, sorry that happened. Frustrating, when you think you have gotten beyond any (or not too much) worry then something pops up. I was told the same thing that 'it can happen' at any time no matter how long ago. But, we are still alive. I'm doing very well. Hope all of you are also.

Thanks Patoo ! I am right-handed, but have took so much for granted, and I am busy most of the time, to keep sane, I made it " a challenge", to do everything I could. I am sorry you had to go through it too.
Everyone, Stay Blessed!!
Sincerely,
Llinda

Hello,
I have been on this site for a while, but not to this post. It is comforting to see those diagnosed years back with current posts.
Thank you.

Hello Insideout2, sorry to meet you on this forum but it is definitely a good place to land on this journey. We just check in occasionally so others know they are not alone. Feel free to PM at any time.

Hello Insideout2, Nice that you check in, and we welcome you.
They changed a lot of the forum and I couldn't find this page and began to feel sad. While not on all the time (like Patoo said) we do drop in.
Take care of yourself till the next time.
Sincerely
Llinda

Hi Patoo and everyone, I am on a roll Tonite. My port stopped working after 16 years , that didn't go well , disconnected from the cord, so I have to go in for a Venogram next week, needless to say, Ugh!! Keep me on prayer, they will try to remove that cord and put in a new port. Okay, so much from at this time.
Take care all
Llinda
