Brought tears to my eyes, I pray every day is better for you.

The good memories thats what it all about when we are gone.

Mitchell, we all understand your mom's fears, I believe once cancer has been spoken to you it and its fears never leave, we may not talk about them but in the back of our minds its always there. As for the uncaring nurse, I always give the benefit of doubt, we never know what is going on in someone elses life and may be she was having an off day. Prayers your way, your mom is lucky to have a son like you....

Sorry for your sister Betty, she is in peace and prayers go out to you and your family..

Wonderful article, goes to show only God knows when we go, my mother was with hospice 2 times she lived 6 years and the cancer was not what took her...

Ernie, when I had my pet scan it stated there was activity in the upper intestine which scared me to death, when I met with the onc doctor who went over the scan with me and my husband she said that was nothing it was normal.. try not to worry too much (easier said then done)

Finished my 1st week of radiation, and as you all told me it wasn't that bad. I hope week two goes the same. I start chemo on Monday 1 time a week while having radiation and couple after radiation. I pray it all works. Drug being used are Taxotere and Carboplatin, would like to know if anyone else had or has chemo with this drugs and what side effects it may have, Dr says people usually tolerate them well. In the packets they give you just afew are gone over, I was so disappointed at the support sheet given to me, No local support groups on LC its all breast cancer, prostate cancer. It is so sad that we dont get the support as those other groups. I hate to say this but its like LC is looked down upon as a self caused disease when there are so many out here who have never smoked. I would love to see that change during my lifetime. Keep on praying for us all....

Went for my first radiation treatment today, when I got home I had everyone, Hubby, daughter and sister whisper to my chest, SHRINK, SHRINK, SHRINK they all got a kick out of it.. best of luck for us all to continue with good news.....

Thoughts and prayers as you and your family grieve, Please stay in touch....

I'll jitter with you, tomorrow first radiation treatment, best of luck to us both...

Like the others have said you will be posting encouraging thoughts to someone else down the road. This is my second time around as well as many others, believe me when I say your dad has this thought in the back of his head and if bad news were to come he has somewhat prepared himself. But as someone in this group said to me and it has stuck... just because its cancer doesn't mean its catastrophic. PRAYERS.....
-
Sounds like she needs the rest, and in afew weeks she will be ready to go at it again, keep us posted..
-
Yeah, worse thing is the battle in our minds. I hope for the best but prepare for the worse, if that can be done, it is hard....
-
Wow, your mom is such a pillar of strength. Don't know about the chemo helping but sounds like she is willing to try what ever is out there.. keep us posted....

Well had my MRI of the brain, it was clear Thank GOD
Start radiation on Monday to the middle of the chest starting to feel a bit nervous wondering how I will handle it all, meet with chemo Dr next Weds. I feel like a whimp after reading Frank's latest post. What that man has been through and I'm whining about this. And not just him but every one else that has taken the journey I am about to start. This is a awful disease and Frank's post reminds us all of how awful it can be and get. I watched my Mother die with cancer and as Frank said its that indepenence that is so devastating, my mother would say the hardest part was having the mind willing and the body not able. I guess the reason this is so hard to handle for me is the image of mom in my mind and thinking will it be like that for me. I know people are different and not every one is the same, but the thought is still there....Wish me luck as I tighten the boxing gloves up....
Stable is a "good" thing!
