    Linda - Bummer on the pleural effusions.  Hope you get it taken care of Monday.  You are one hell of a strong lady.  You have been through so very much.  To me you are like a Timex watch - you take a lickin' and keep on tickin'.  You go girlfriend.  The flowers are so beautiful.  I have never seen those before.

    FK - I have to say I have been having lots of fun over the past couple of years.  This is the way it should be.You do remember than no matter how hard I had it, I always found the bright side of things.

    Hi All!  Haven't been here in ages, but just peeking in for a bit.  We're  leaving for a vacation to the Smoky mountains.  Yahoooo!   Egad, it takes forever to pack post rads.  Pack undies...sit.  Pack shirts... lay down.  Pack pants..... sit. Well you get the drift.    Moving a little bit on the slow side yet, but starting to get longer periods of energy.  Probably will spend the whole time staring at the hummingbirds since they have a hummer feeder at the cabin where we stay.  This is from year before last.

    Lily..........I hear you.........the Rads can beat you up physically, but it took a couple weeks for it to happen to me after I finished....................however.......my techs did  warn me that it was going to happen........I think long term Rads takes its toll on  the body in general..........why would it not................there is a reason the floor is concrete and everyone but you is in the room when your being cooked.........LOL.............but......

    We do come through one way or the other........younger can handle it better......an old gal like me, well face it............we have our own age related things going on too...........almost 79  is not exactly a spring chicken........but we fight through.

    So you sit as much as you need to, and lay when you have to, but enjoy yourself, and the hummingbirds........hugs...........good to see you back...........don't be a stranger.........we welcome all.................

    Lily - We all know what you are talking about.  It took me several months after rads to get my energy back.  Some of the ladies that were with me during that time will attest to the fact, I WORKED everyday.  How did I do it - I have no idea.  Hang in there.  Enjoy the hummingbirds and just give yourself time to heal and get back to doing all those things you love to do.

    OMG!  That was one hell of a party. You ladies crack me up.  

    Ducky - I was there!!  There were so many people we just missed each other.  I did see FK dancing but couldn't get to her.  For an old broad, she can shake her boodie.  She is probably feeling it today.  And, we don't need her CFM shoes to dance - let her keep them.  

    Another party next week?  Bring it on!!!!

    Badger - Cute Picture!  i have run across it before and it always makes me smile.

    FK - We can have one continuous party starting on Monday and ending whenever.  I know you like to salsa dance,  I found this red dress for you to wear to the party.
