    Granny, take a deep breath and let it out slow.  If you don't mind paying a few dollars more, you can get it in hardcover from Amazon now.

    Yes, people can say some of the weirdest things and the worst times.   When I was in the hospital for my mastectomy (3 weeks ago tomorrow) I had numerous nurses and even the anethesiologist ask me why I was crying, why am I upset.   "Uh, gee...I have breast cancer and you are going to cut off my left boob?  Hello?  Why should I NOT cry, you imbeciles!"   Luckily,  I had the chance to talk with the floor nurse manager and I gave her an ear full about how the patient care was so inconsistent.   She was very appreciative for hearing about it in real time from someone who was actually still there as a patient.   And prior to that, when I went through my second round of biopsies, I told the nurse, "PLEASE DO NOT PUT  TAPE ON MY NIPPLE".  The first time out they put the strongest tape over it and I about pulled off the skin removing the bandage.  Her reply was, "Oh, I didn't know.  That tape normally doesn't stick well.  You must have moist skin".  WTF? They are rather clueless if they themselves have not gone through it.   So I guess I would tell folks to stop giving their opinion and that they can't possibly understand it unless they go through it themselves.   The whole experience will always be different for each person.

    Pirates, what a frustrating experience, no-one has the right to tell you how to feel. I went off on one of my nurses too the first night. My pain OF was empty and beeping for like 30 minutes. I yelled at her and was bawling because I was in so much pain. She said "well why didn't you push the call button"? Gee, maybe because my breasts were both removed and I can't lift my arms!! Then she did nothing while I just sobbed.



    I'm so sorry you had a bad time. U don't deserve that. Sending hugs your way.

    OMG donlaoding, uploading, wifing , nooks, hard cover, soft cover those are the only 2 I understand and I do remember the name---oops no I don't but I could look something about buzzing. Holy shit now I want to read it but like many can't show it to my kids--oh I went dark on here. see what I mean--I'm lucky I can find this thing. I haven't read in so long and I used to love it.

    Wait someone feels crsppy today and is getting soup, I'm so sorry it's not a good day for u. I hope it gets better quickly.

    I did something so stupid today I ate all comfort food, now I'm sick--LOL I have to see the Dr. tom. and I'm hating
    Drs. so much I thought F-It so altho I was happy for a while I'm miserable now My fault tho. LOL

    OK snow's a-comin--(when u put A infront mean bad) but I think it's not st all what they are expecting so since zi don't resally leave the house it's not going to bother me and the Dr. is 5 mins from here.

    Granny I hope things t better and better for u.

    (((HUGS))) to all

    Dear Wonderful Outrageous Women writers on this thread,

    I am addicted to reading your posts every day. I'm not as funny as you guys, but when I wrote out my thank you notes to all of the physicians, technicians and nursing staff who took care of me during my clinic and surgery care,  this is the one I gave to my breast surgeon whom I adore:

    Outside of card: OMG WTF      Inside of card: I just needed to get that off my chest.

     ~ THANK YOU ~   to grannydukes, ShaneOak and everyone else for such a great forum, and may you never STFU.

    I put a hold on the book at the library. I'm #135 on 28 copies, so it may take a while. Is it a quick read?
