    I'm Backkkkkkkkk. Good I had it done. 3 polyps, never had more than one. So, will see what kind of plan I'm on at f/u appointment. Saw lots of old friends. Requested two old friends for the procedure. Another old fiend started the IV. They weren't too buzy, so they let me sleep. Delightful on the meds 1 1/2 hrs. When I woke up they had a cutely decorated  b-day cupcake. Can't eat it till tomorrow. Will be heading for bed soon.
    Foley glad your okay, Shells the same.

    Julia, your right the headlights will settle down 2-3 weeks.

    Mary, The porch party needs to be scheduled. HUGS AND KISSES TO YOYR BROTHER

    FlowersHaven't heard from you, You were recovering from sx so is anything up.

    Cami take that thing I sent you to the surgeon on WED. :) I don't think it will offend him at all, cuz I said it wasn't surgical, it was anesthesia. Tell him he was wonderful the way he kept watch, and made sure your PCP was involved :)

    Mostlymom, oh your not neutered , just fixed LOL.

    Dwilli give things some time, all is not done with, just a few interferrences.

    Savi, thank you, you always pop in when someone needs an uplift

    CROG, glad you are here, I will get that off in the mail soon. HONEST!

    Phyill I'll call toneight or vice versa-----heading to bed to sleep while some of those lovely drugs are on board.

    Chabba--good luck on bx, Chevey described it right, but just got the name wrong

    Stacey hang in there on the rads. Lots of in-the-know folks here to help.

    Ckickie--Cooper pics?  Miss our baby! Who do you apply to for a service dog? I need one for my hearing UGH

    Stacey & Chickie, there is money out there to be found for help with meds & nonmed stuff. But it's like a lottery ticket, if you don't buy a ticket, you can't win. You have to find the money, and apply. Getting Social worker help, we got a total of 9k$ in 2009. Every single dollar went to things that would have depleted us, had we not applied for them:)

    Chevy did your fairy candle come yet? It'd be so nice if it came on your birthday:)

    Hugs Veggy, Blondie, April, and Jackie. If I missed anyone SoRrY. Sleeptime now :)

    I went shopping today with my son.

    Question: Does anyone remember getting a fuzzy face after chemo? What did you do about the fuzz????

    Well Veggy.... I would shave.  I really mean it!  I DID a few times, but not because of chemo.  My SIL always shaved her arms, and this was years ago, and she STILL doesn't have any hair on her arms!  

    Or else can you buff it off with one of those Loofah things, or like those green rough pads for doing dishes?  Except I would probably break out in hives from using things too rough on my skin. 

    SASSY!  IT JUST CAME!  IT IS PRETTIER THAN THE PICTURE I LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET!  I JUST LOVE...LOVE....LOVE it!!!!   I am going to clear off our dining room table..... and set it in this white flowered candle ring!  Then I'll take a picture!  Right now I have the fairy garden out on a lawn chair under our Colo. Blue Spruce tree!  It has been raining sooooo much, and thought the whole thing would be flooded.  I'll light it and take a picture at night for you!  Thank you soooooo much silly face!  So now what can I do for you? 

    Send me YOUR address, and I will send YOU a Starbucks gift card..... or a different kind?  I mean it!  Just send me your address.... and your whole name.... xoxoxox

    Wren!  I KNOW!  So many of us gals are going through a lot of stuff!   I just would like to make it all go away.....

    Okay Dwilli..... I would go there..... The hell with it.... I think I would just find a way to go see him..... Such a beautiful letter he gave you!   Are you too far away to go see him?  And would they let you in if you DID go?  I mean is it contagious?   Maybe tell him your plans first....  Give him time to hide his three wives first..... (JUST kidding!)  He CAN'T be hiding anything..... he sounds too nice!    If you GO.... just PM me, and I'll tell you what to do!  Wink   Just don't cry..... 

    CHICKERS!  you little rascal!  How do you remember who has what going on???  I'm clapping my hands for you!  Take care of yourself....

    Dwill, sorry about the things you're going through. Ive heard that theres a nasty stomach virus floating around. Just stick with us we'll help you get through the rough patches. Does anybody know about Hashimotos disease? I had never heard of it before yesterday.

    Chevy- I think you asked if there's anyone here to go through this with me.

    On the top of the list is my husband. If I beg him enough, he'll let someone else take me to my appointments. He wants to do it all. But he has to work and he has his aged mother to help too. I'm a pretty strong person even though to meet me you wouldn't think it. I have a lot of friends who help too and they'll drop whatever they are doing for me. You guys are my comedy routine, drama, and confidants.



    I did end up shaving my face last night. There's always a first time.

    Procedure went smoothly with no pain until evening.  Some soreness last night but very sore today.  Not hydrocodone sore but definately 2 advil sore.  Don't know when I'll get the results. They won't be available until Fri or Mon and MO has gone on maternity leave so I don't even know who I'll be seeing much less when.  I called yesterday to check on an appointment date but have not heard back.

    OMG, just got back from the PS. First words out of his assistant's mouth, "My, you look chipper today." I literally stopped in my tracks, saw each of your faces in a huge group and blurted out, " Why shouldn't I be? Everything is good."



    Headed out to get my hair done. Be back later.

    This is my 'slogging thru the shite' post.  Had labs today and counts are low (of course they are).  Neupogen shots today and tomorrow plus today IV zofran, pepsid and fluids.  And stop the Zelda for a week.  Same story, different day.  Whine, whine.  Thank you for listening.

    Dwilli deleted posts, with out repeat posts, worry us sweetie. You've been down. Veggy and I call it being in the basement. It's Veggy's and my code word for being depressed. Sometimes I helped her find the stairs and door and sometimes she helped me. We try to lock and hide that damnable door. BC is terrible at showing us that damnable door again. Please, come back . Whatever it is. You can depend on all of us.

    Mary this endocrine web site covers everything thyroid. It's wonderful. I knew some stuff about thyroid, but this site is the eqivalent of finding BCO for information.

    Dwillette  - What you are feeling is a normal part of the healing process. Advice from one who knows: you are doing exactly what you need to do, you are healing, it's okay to cry, this will pass. Sounds like your friend was having a bad day when he wrote that. Stay his friend without pressure on him while he is sick. If the friendship is meant to continue, it will. You don't know his whole story, so just hang with it. Meanwhile I wouldgo back on Christian Mingle and, well, Mingle 💃 Check out eHarmony.com while you are at it. Check in with us regularly so we can cheer you on.

    Mary and Dwill - hip hip hurray on those pesky lumps.

    Hi everyone it's me--I just had a super tired day, went out again last nite. Now I see all kinds of problems and unhappy ladies and I feel bad for all of u.

    Now I want to remember eveything but u know that's impossible, but I'll try.

    Blondie can't u see another Dr. before the 29th that sounds rediculous to wait so long.

    Mary Hiroshima Thyroid, was this named from the 2nd world war? I never heard such a thing.

    Chabba I'm glad u'r not in a lot of pain, but a long wait to find out. Blah

    Veggie we all glad u have someone (DH) to be with u for all of this.

    Dwillilike Phylosad said this is normal--that feeling of helplessness than u had a hype meeting someone, u'r endorphons got u a little high (good) but now the let down that he's sick is crumby. It's OK to be sad there are plenty of times we want to just hide in a closet-not mine but u just feel s weepy. And it does pass and before u know it u start to feel unweepy little, by little. Just have a little patience if he's sick u don't want to get exposed to anything now--u'll get sicker. He'll get better don't worry--and if u don't live far u'll see each other- U've never met, but I know u r enamored with the illusion of this man--so he's worth the wait for u,

    Chevy did u have a good birthday---Oh how time flies like chickens--they don't actually go anywhere they just flap their wings and get older with each egg that u take. YES TAKE u can never convince me they gave them to u. I'm on to u Chevyhen.

    And Sas I hope u had a nice day also--Birthdays can be fun when your 10, sorry that was terrible.

    My GF is talking me to my surgeons app't ment tomorrow and we'll talk about this whole organ deciding to move around and do what they want to do. Hell I'm not crayz about my body either but I'm not going where I'm not supposed to go. Geeze can't count on my own inners to respect the area they are supposed to be in. There must be a little terrorist in there they are obeying and it better not be cnacer cuz I won't have it.

    ChickaDalmost done---are u feeling goofy again, and Phylocrappy u too. Chemo is so crappy everyone say it's "doable" and of course it is but it's like someone hitting u on the head with a hammer every time u go, ur's body starts to feel better but the hammer is still waiting.

    Crog what an interesting name I kinda like it Welcome to this insanity that we call a thread, Chevy's right u'r name we'll have to work with, u've pretty much screwed it up u'r self, but we can screw it up more. Don't let any of us scare u away We're a good caring group just a little floopy, but we unfloop to really try to help. (shhh Chevy is the Floopiest and ducky is right up with her)

    Sas, I deleted because I repeated.  Thanks all you guys for hanging in there with me.   How is it you can be happy one day and then the next day you just want to hide from the world forever! I'll be okay--I have all kind of anxiety and anti-depressant pills and and I promise not to take more than prescribed.
