Got a letter today from the radiologist at the imaging center that did my mammogram. No evidence of cancer. Woohoo!

Grandma ~ FANTASTIC! I got my letter on Friday, but I wasn't too anxious since the PET scan was normal. Oh the happiness we feel when the word "negative" refers to us...but in a good way...lol!

The Navelbine seems to be working! My bumps are shrinking. They feel like thousands of needles are sticking them but I can see and feel it working. Finally a good positive for me. Thus chemo is rough on me physically but when I can see the results, it is worth the pain.
I pray good days for each of you.

Beth, I am so glad that your chemo is working. Hopefully it will shrink the tumors into oblivion. Visible improvement must be reassuring to see. I also love your attitude!

Hello to all of my wonderful November 2011 buddies! Beth ~ So happy that you are seeing good results. As we all know, chemo is a grueling process, but knowing there is positive change must be very gratifying. Hope your treatment kicks those nasty bumps to the curb! Hugs to all...Linda

Saw my onco today. Happy to report it was very uneventful.

Grandma ~ I would be thrilled if all of us keep having "uneventful" appointments with the MO's. That is my major goal in life! Glad you are an uneventful patient right now...that is so wonderful.

Here 's to uneventful doctor appointments, Grandma! Most of us were diagnosed in September, so this makes 3 years for us now. It is funny. In some ways it seems like it was just yesterday that we started our journeys together, and in other ways it seems like such a long time ago. I have my mammogram and oncologist check next week. Hopefully, they will also be boring and routine.

I hope to visit the Babiez for their 2nd birthday. I had to have neupogen injections this week because my counts were low. I understand this is a common side effect of Navelbine. Hopefully tomorrow's counts will be good and I can go on the road with my son and daughter in law. I am enjoying each day and all that comes with them. Such a blessing to see the sun shine. I don't like too many rainy days.
Wishing good days to each of you.

Beth, I always got a shot of something because of low counts when I was getting taxotere and cytoxyn chemo. I can't remember if that was the name of it or not, but after my white count was so low a few days after the first infusion, they just routinely sent me for the shot the day after each infusion. And it really worked, raised the count pretty high pretty fast. I hope you get to give the babies their birthday kisses. Have a safe trip.

Hi everyone, I've been without I internet for a while and it looks like it will be a while longer. I've missed checking in with you all. My son stopped by for a few minutes so I tapped into his to let you know. will explain more when I get mine back. Beth, hang in there.0 -
Ok, new internet finally connected. My modem lasted 9 years before it died. My old internet provider wouldn't disconnect and evidently the new one couldn't connect until they were gone. 3 weeks without internet. I hadn't realized how much I depended on it, until it was gone. Hope everyone is ok. I'm doing ok.

Thanks Nel0 -
Welcome back Grandma! I am still trying to find answers to these bumps. I hate to think that the chemo is not working. I had low counts this week so no chemo. It is very scary and I am fighting depression. My husband is trying to keep my mood up but he works 2nd shift so I am home alone at night. I can't drive because of the pain pills. I'm sorry to complain but I need to get it out.
I hope each of you have blessed days!

Beth, thank you. We don't mind the complaining. This is the place to get it out. I hope those bumps soon disappear. Like Nel said this is frightening. You're in my prayers. Hugs from me too.
