    Sheila - I had to go back a few pages and see who's idea this was.  I found a post by SAS.  She is the one who should head this up and give details.  There were requests for signs and a map - I just happened to find them so we can get started.

    Love you new idea girls!

    I do want to throw something into the hell fire.  I want to throw in this hair that has come back since I lost it.  Hate it and miss my other hair!!!  Forget the saying, its a bad hair day, I have had a bad hair year, grrrrr!  Just missing the super straight hair that I could spike up instead of these chemo curls that I have!

    hey Paula, want to trade?  I miss my chemo curls!  Back to straight hair and bummed.

    I'm sitting by the sweet fire and thinking of Watson, the first BCO sister I loved and lost.

    That's a good one Dancetrancer....We've already thrown in the radiation machines and the bone density test machines...I guess we may as well throw in the radiation stickers too.  I'm going to throw in the tatoos too...Who wants to be reminded of radiation therapy FOREVER????

    My surgeon asked me if I wanted my port for my scrapbook. No scrapbook here. I want to forget about BC. SHe threw it away or I would have added it.

    I think I threw in my rad tats long ago.  I have enough reminders - like the deformed boob after my lumpectomy.

    LOL VR!!!!  It's not like it's a port for a cruise ship destination!  Jean, I can't believe your surgeon suggested it for a scrap book.  Throw the whole d*mn scrap book idea into the fire!

    Hey dancetrancer, I was always battling my little rads stickers and griped to the rads tech one day...he said, "oh ya know, we really dont even need those anymore, once we have the first line up done the computer knows when you are aligned". ugh! Throwing rads stickers into hell fire!!

    THE BONFIRERES has been a great place to off load anger Thank you JO, I suggested a sweet fireonly in gathering and wierd. reasonably received let's define a sweet fire------------1 they aren't thrown in 2 we are praising them for their good work 3 we like them and would rather share the beauty of the  fire versus seeing them burn

     We all sit around the fire and watch it burn with idiots we are burning

    Unbeknownstest to those that have made us happy in someway, newbies are included at the side of the fire, b/c when we include them in thought.  First time people here dont get it bummer, comtact any member and they will answer your question

     Brighter for us when we can invite someone to enjoy the fire an have more of our sisterhoood, we can share some joy as we burn some analpores

    VR I just watched the ad and found myself with the same problem, picking my jaw up off the floor!  VERY FUNNY!  Thanks for sharing!  By the way I think I'll do what Veggy wants to do too, toss my nerves for tomorrow in the fire.  I'm going in for my first mamo since diagnosis. Where's my Advil? Kitty

    I'm ready to toss in the scheduling system at my large university hospital.  I cannot make a stupid appt myself, have to always be referred by someone else, talk to a gazillion people, explain my story a million times to secretaries and nurses who really would rather push me off to someone else, and, finally, when I do get an appt, it is so much later than I want it to be...leading to extra anxiety and worry.  Oh and then when I get there I have the privilege of paying for the parking which is only partially validated...and I have to pay even more b/c I wait 1 or 2 hours for the appt.  

    Oh, and I'm also going to throw in the fear that I have that I complain too much...so nice to have a thread where I can just vent b/c I want to, and don't have to pretend to be the "strong warrior" happy cancer patient.  Blech!!!  Sometimes ya just wanna b*tch and complain.  Oooooohhhh...I see sparks coming out of that fire now baby!

    I'll tell you why Granny. The road to hell is shorter. Seems like the other road is steeper and longer...

    Then we have to honor the people we lost to this giant monster.You know where they are....right....I started to honor sistas we lost this year.Im sure they are in that special place.Surely everyone knows someone they lost and is at the end of the road.

    Pave that road with gold and silver.Those sistas walked throu the fires of hell on earth.

    VR, that link is awesome, and my jaw is also on the floor!!!! Hubba hubba is all I can say!

    For the sweet fire, I want to share it with my PCP.  I called her today about this pain in my arm that just hasn't responded to much of anything, and she came up with yet another suggestion - lidocaine patch - and I think it is working!  I am so grateful for her patience with me and her understanding. 

    grannydukes, I have a ton of anger I need to toss into the flames one of these days.  I think one reason I keep holding onto the anger is because that is what has given me SOMETHING to hang onto.  If it wasn't for the anger, I think I am afraid of giving up.  But I am doing a lot of reading and thinking and meditating and praying and hoping to get to the point where I can toss that anger in.  Some days I am ready, almost there, just not quite yet.

    And I am content to just stand on the sweet side of the fire with my BCO sisters, keeping warm and sharing in love.

    THAT commercial!!! I am telling you. VR was minding her own business, doing what she does best in the evening.... Watching TV, reading a book and tapping on her iPhone when THAT COMMERCIAL came on TV and VR almost tumbled off the sofa... I mean could you believe it????? DOUBLE IMPACT??!!! I am still in a state of shock that it got on American TV....
