    Poppy, I bled a lot after my breast biopsy. Not fun. Nor is the waiting part! Glad you are home though, sorry about the boys and chores.....sending gentle hugs.

    well sun is shining, birds are making a racket outside! Well they plowed my development and my car is free of snow.....the street is still nasty icey looking. Can not imagine me walking across the street to my car. Gonna hunker down.

    Yeah, i am very lucky to have the neighbors that i do. I am that person the news guys always say to check on as in your elderly neighbors! But i have always been nice to others so this is sort of payback time. Course when you walk with a cane.....

    I hibernated too today. Hubby thought that I should wait until we start getting some melting to get out and about.

    Sun is blindingly bright—despite sub-freezing temps, whole lotta meltin’ goin’ on. Last night there was 8” of snow atop my gas grill…now nary a flake. Gonna head out grocery shopping.

    I'm so happy to hear everyone made it through the storm! Hopefully it's the last of the season and we can officially move on to Spring!

    Ducky, I love soup too! My DH doesn't care for soup so I make a huge pot of vegetable beef soup. Half for me and I thicken the broth and make the other half beef stew for hubby.

    I was never a fan of soup until I was an adult. My kids only like my potato soup. Now I love soup and wish the family did though my oldest now likes chicken tortilla soup. That's new. PoppyK, sorry about the pain and bleeding with the biopsy. I am praying for benign results. Your breast biopsy is on my birthday so easy to remember.

    My Wyatt's having a really hard time. Please keep him in your prayers.

    Poppy ..Hoping for benign results ..and that you' are feeling better ..Your breast biopsy is on my Hubby's birthday too ( as well as Molly's ),so I will definitely remember , and be thinking of you too .

    Ducky ..I love soup as well , and so does Hubby ..though the rest of my family were never that fond of it .I love a yummy crust bread to go with it. !

    Iris ..Glad you can get out again ..Nothing worse than being stuck in the house ..We always call it cabin fever..!!

    Molly ..Definately sending prayers for Wyatt. !!

    It's 3.40 am here ..I have hay fever , and can't sleep ..Ugh ..

    We are picking up my 7 and 4 year old grand kids today and they are staying with us for the night while their parents go to a wedding ..They always sleep with me , and we watch videos . Hubby gets booted to a spare room as he can't fit in the bed as well 😵

    Hugs to Queen, Octo , Robin , Sandy , Mommy , Lori and anyone else I've missed !!

    Sending healing thoughts Wyatt’s way, Molly.

    Bob says that one hallmark of a great assisted living or skilled nursing facility is really good soup (will vouch for how great the soups at my orthopedic-surgical rehab center were). As we get older, it’s easier to swallow soup than other foods and it’s all about packing it with both flavor & nutrients. The big foodie hoo-hah around here is “bone broth.” Bought a carton and it was vile…until I realized it was the unsalted version. A little seasoning made it delicious.

    Hi ladies. On our way to surgeon's surgeon in about an hour to see what he will do. I think about you all the time, but I just don't post. I'm doing ok, but will definitely let you know what he says.

    Have a great morning and will get back to you soon.

    Thinking of you before your surgery and sending prayers for Wyatt, Molly.

    Shorfi, so happy to hear from you! And glad you are back home Tomboy!

    Weather still gorgeous here, but the rain is supposed to come back next week. At least it isn't snow...

    Hope all have a great weekend!

    Mommy, hugs right back atcha!

    Iris, mouth sores are the worst! Praying they don't get to painful for you! I'm hoping you have a great time with your GBs! I had my first ever massage at the radiation clinic I go to. It was wonderful! The masseur is there every Wednesday and RO encourages all of his patients to go see her.

    Molly, praying Wyatt continues to feel better. Your EX is soooo close now. I'm in your pocket!

    Tomboy, hoping you get some much needed rest!

    Sheri, praying all went well for you yesterday!

    Octogirl, it's warmer here in S Indiana but a misty mess out there but I'll take it!

    Hello to everyone I may have missed

    Ladies maybe you can help me...a friend is going to get Chemo....its for her liver, but she did hve BC 2 times...imagine......the talk is giving her a drug called Abraxane....has anyone ever had it, or heard anything about it........I did it on Forum, but no one has answered yet...checking with my very smart ladies

  • Italychick

    My understanding is Abraxane is taxotere without the polysorbate 80 which can cause problems. If I had known that, I would have insisted on getting Abraxane instead of taxotere. So think taxotere, but maybe with less allergic reactions or side effects. At least that is my understanding.

    Still causes hair loss though I'm pretty sure.

    Molly, Glad to hear Wyatt is doing better. I hope he continues this trend. Thinking about you as you do your exchange. It's hard when we have to focus on our healing instead of taking care of everyone else.

    Shorfi, Glad to see you. Thinking about you.

    Hi Tomboy. Hope you got some well deserved rest.

    Ducky, Cancer sucks. One of my friends just told me she has breast cancer. She has already been through multiple bone marrow transplants, stem cell therapy, etc due to multiple myeloma. And skin cancer on her nose. Really stinks, She isn't even 50 yet. At least her twin boys are grown.

    Hi Everyone! I'm feeling lazy. It drives my DH nuts because he is always working around the house or busy with activities. But I'm laying around reading books.... which makes me happy.
