My cat did find and sniff out both places my cancer was at, I went cus she was treating my breast differenty for at least 3 months and it went to my chest wall and she kneaded my breast and I started to think she was a pervert and my oldest DD said u'r getting a mammo. She's had cat's for 20 yrs. and now the cat kneads very gently my LE arm where the PT used to every day. The cat has started to my lower back lately just recently on one spot--that why I call her my cat/pet scan.

    I like this thread because it brings out the fighter in me. It makes me feel I don't have to like what is happenning to me or I did not do anything to make this happen to myself.  An the opinions of others--so many--some should  STFU.  This is not an easy process and you have to pull everything in you to fight this horrible disease. I am a fighter and there is nothing pretty about having BC.  I will keep the fight and others who cannot identify need to STFU.

    I'm glad about that we told u it dosn't have to be all plain water00ick, ca't do that myself--A vitamin water is good and it has some flavors--I personally like propel little bit of flavor not much but it's not crummy plain water, my favorite is lemon and berry, oh and orange peach ometimes. But I don't like some of the sweeter tastes. Just drink Chick LOL

    Cami, I can't have a cat with our dog, he would not accept another animal in the house but he is getting old.  When he dies I want a cat.  Specifically, I want a Russian Blue.  I had one when I was a child.  It was a rescue cat, had been mistreated and turned on it's owners.  Took awhile to earn it's trust but it was the best cat I've ever had.  At the time, early '50's, there were appparently under 600 of them in the United States.  I always wished we had been able to find another Blue to breed her to.

    Im in whoever needs me but I am bringing a pocket protector just in case they get unruly. I'm bringing a chocolate cream pie.

    Dwilli - Welcome to the crazies! Sorry you have to go through this crap. We're here to listen when you need to vent, need help or just be insane. I like insane. It helped get me through my second round of cancer. These hooligans are great. But don't let them know I said that. :)

    I woke up feeling that this is a dream. Then I read the boards and its real. Ill be checking everyday to see if I have any hair coming.

    Hugs!

    @ Dwilli - Yes, welcome, welcome, welcome.  You will find this thread not only fun and funny but educational and informative too.  Glad to have U with us.  These ladies are the absolute BEST!!!!!

    Ms. Veggie - how long does it take for the hair to grow back?  I had my last chemo on May 1 and last shot on May 2.  Got some fuzziness I can feel but nothing appreciable! ??????
