Sorry Susan, Patty, MamaRay. I completely get your fears. No need to tell the family now. It's hard to comfort others when you are scared chinless.
I've heard good stories from the brain thread. You are young, strong and have a big reason to fight. I think our children make us stronger.
I remember those steroid days. Had a clean house. Not any more:( I didn't like Ativan. Xanax works better for me. Don't be afraid to ask. Then it will be there when you need it, instead of having to wait. There's no shame in needing help. It's a tough ride.

G"morning pretty ladies!
MammaRay - Sending you hugs!
luvmygoats - I have an ultrasound of right and left axillary region scheduled for tuesday and then they will decide on what type of biopsy to do based on location, and adjacent nerves, etc. My Dr says she might want to remove entire mass.
Hope you ladies have a wonderful day! Hugs all around!

I forgot you Cubbie.... yes, I think it was! What a MESS! I mean purple was everywhere! I remember our neighbors were over helping my Husband put up a swing-set, and it hurt so bad, I could hardly TALK! It's funny now, but not anymore... I know now, to eat lots of yogurt, and drink Aloe-Vera when I have to take an Anti-biotic... like with my hip.... AND BC surgery...My incisions around the tubes in my breast were VERY infected, so had 2 different ones....... Didn't get that yeast infection either time...! Maybe the anbi-b's are different now......
Is everybody still in bed?
Sass, I think you should get some sleep.... your little brain is always working overtime!
Not doing anything tonight.... but Janie is coming over today.........She is bringing a Hot and Ready Pizza... Ha! Going to help me sort all the stuff out I don't want.... And we will donate what she can't use.......

Zills, does Xanax help with nausea too.? I take Ativan for a few days after chemo cause it helps with nausea and doesn't block me up for 2 weeks like zophran. I have enough internal problems and zophran is not my friend. Get the smallest dose possible during treatment, and that throws me over the edge. Managing side effects is a full time job. Thank God I have a very competitive nature, thrown it with a healthy dose of stubbornness. And I might as well add, a big mouth, which helps me to be my own advocate. See how I can spin negative attributes and make them look so nic...lol
Have a safe New Years everyone 🍺🍷💞🎉🎈⛄️🏈🇺🇸

Hi there JWoo. Happy New Year to you too.
MammaRay, FF is right....Romans 8:38
Susan, your friend sounded like a very special person not only to you, but to your DD also. What a blessing to have had someone like that in your life to help shape who you are.
Ms. Sas, don't crash! You always "write a book" after A short time of silence.
Our dear Rose is struggling (understatement).

MammaRay: Oh, bleep. Hoping you're tucked up in bed sleeping, rather than whizzing around catching up on all the nasty tasks you put off and off and off and off. (Yeah, steroids take me that way too.

MammaRay- don't worry about scrolling back, too much to read there! I just hop on and go, when I have been off for awhile.
This thread is like watching a soap opera, you don't need to be away too long to figure out the new plot with many of the same characters when you come here again. As the thread turns.....
Love my Insomniacs!

Mamma, Jazzy's right of course. You have enough to deal with. We just yak away. Don't worry your pretty little head abut this stuff.
0 -
Yeah, MammaRay don't feel bad about catching up. You will get confused by the time you are done. Spend your excess energy cleaning or doing somethingproductive.

Patty- thank you! Working from home today. You feeling okay today?

Mammaray, That is really too bad. It would be so nice if they could be together. A friend adopted 3 little kids, then found out they had an older brother. She made waves until they let her have him also. It would be nice if they could at least have some sort of relationship in the future. Hugs.

Jazzy - What A Hoot - As the Thread Turns
Jwoo - so good to hear from you. On to 2016.
MammaRay - Oh that is so hard and how I feel for you. Agree with Wren in hoping they can have a relationship. Is it an open adoption (hoping yes)? (((Big Hugs))) coming your way. Just feel your way along with your family. When the time comes to tell them you will know it. Meantime taking care of yourself is 1st priority.
Deb - will be in your pocket for Tuesday.
I am officially tired of being cold. We had sun for a bit and now its gone again. Come back please. Temp is down to 48. I know nothing compared to others nastiness. Doing nothing for NYE here. Making a chicken stir fry and watching DH snore. At least there is a hockey game on. Challenger the Free Flying eagle is flying at the start of the National Anthem at the Cotton Bowl. Hopefully will get to see it but you know network coverage.

Spookie, okay I missed that. Funeral? Condolences? Sorry, you're by yourself. Did DD go with DAH?
Lilgoats, Ya'll come on down, 86*. We can get Spookie and maybe Glennie and have a partyin' time. Pools heated. Not kidding. Smarrty talked of coming some time in 2016. We could make a plan. I have beds for 5 and couches for 3 more. I could kick Donnie out for a whatever time.
Just got a dinner invite BBL

Happy New Year! 2016 - Hard to believe.... May the new year bring happiness & health to all my sisters.
Bless you all for helping me through another year. I lurk every day and love you all.
We're both (DH & I) sitting here tapping away on our puters while DD is making a grocery & library run. DS was here for Christmas from Alaska - he certainly brought cheer for the season.
Love, Martha

MM glad the son brought cheer.
Spookie, condolences. Maybe DAH will straighten up.
I am back into a self created drama. Outcome unknown. During a lovely dinner. Donnie's daughter called. They connected today earlier. He's had 4 phones this year--4 numbers. When the kids had his phone number they would call on pay day. "Hi dad, blah,blah,blah...Can you send some money.
He's way into the indentured servitude to the Florida Department of Child Services. Around 39,000. At it's highest it was above 48,000. Not that he didn't pay. 30,000 was for handling charges by DCS. The back award for child support that is allowed by law is 24 months. Doesn't matter what the divorce agreement says i.e no child support. He kept two, she kept one. She filed for child support. He was not aware. When you don't show up in court . No one challenged her truthfulness. Law allowed her to ask for 18000$. She was awarded that based on two kids. One she didn't have custody of and he was 3 months away from 18. He should have been taken off the the record at 18 and it adjusted for direct support. Not done. He was 30 when I came into the seen. I worked very hard to get things right. Wrong, I made it worse. I got him a lawyer that was a schmuck. That was only known retrospectively.
The day My son the lawyer said to me the law doesn't care about justice, it cares about who showed up. I died a little.
They Department of Children Services didn't follow the Statutory law(legislative law) or Regulatory Law(administrative established by the administrative statutory law).any where along the line. I've read them and looked at what was done. As a non lawyer I got them to change the money taking. That indicated that it should have been done long ago, had they followed their own rules.
Then each kid bleeds him weekly. 32, 27, 20. It stopped when he kept loosing or breaking phones. It starts again the day before Christmas because I teach him how to find them on FB. Well, that was stupid wasn't it.
He comes back from the phone call at dinner. I ask "Did she ask for money?" His look tells me she did. I say " She's a leach" Tada. He walks out of the dinner. Was wonderful till that point. Retrospectively, bad words. Concept was right. Do I feel anguish, angst. regret. No.
So, dunno....................
HAPPY NEW YEAR

Blah!! Ms. Sas, sometimes the truth is hard to swallow.

0 -
Loverly, which truth......probably the first was---I shouldn't have called her a leach, but what is the next truth?
0 -
Yes, calling his daughter a leech, even though it's the truth, probably was piercing. It's easyto get defensive/protective of family.
