  1. Just e-mail me the recipes at andreascheff@roadrunner.com Thanks!!!!!! I need to check, did we put that poem in the other book??? If not, will put in this one!
  2. If you go to www.tarceva.com, on the top right of the screen you will see a number for a 24 hour hotline staffed by an oncology nurse. My dad called them today & received AMAZING information on all of his symptoms, he said he got better tips from them than his oncologist office or anywhere on the internet. It is free. Just wanted to share!

    Tarceva rash

    A zillion thanks!!!
  4. My dad's Tarceva rash on his face is pretty bad.....he is thinking about growing a beard b/c it hurts so much & he is not one to complain. He went to the onc & has all the appropriate meds for it. If anyone else experienced the rash, will it eventually get better or will it hurt the entire time he is on it? Thanks!
  5. I think someone once posted this, but it came to me on e-mail again & wanted to share.....basically you can get free housecleaning once a month if undergoing chemo. http://www.cleaningforareason.org/
  6. Thank you Katie! So excited to do this and help raise some funds for lung cancerin the process
  7. Hi everyone, I apologize for being super quiet lately, I do read & think of you all! I was offered an amazing opportunity to do an internet based weight loss reality show with Shay from the Biggest Loser!!! In an effort to "pay it forward", I am donating $10 for every pound I lose during the 6 week period to LUNGevity. Here is a link to the details of what I will be doing. http://www.alysiagadson.com/ukc.html If you want to watch, you can check back to the link above or friend me on Facebook, all details will be there. Thanks!

    Roll Call

    My mom is now 6 years out and my dad 3!
  10. I know it has been forever since I posted & I do apologize....I have been busy handling my twins! I do think of everyone here!!! Just a quick thought as holiday parties are approaching-----consider hosting a Lung Cancer Fundraiser Party! Invite people over, celebrate holidays, ask for donations for LUNGevity in lieu of gifts, and tax deduct the party!!!!! We did this for the babies 1st b-day party. It was so much fun! Love & prayers to everyone!
  11. My mom IIIA, advanced, but she is still in remission since her Nov2003 diagnosis.....despite brain anyerum procedures & triple bypass along the way! My dad unstaged (either I or IV, depends if the blip in the brain is malignant, at this point they asume probably not) diagnosed Sept 2007 is also still in remission!!!! We all count our blessings daily!
  12. I wore makeup but she didnt in case she could not wash it off right away, good logic! Haha. She is coming home today, dr said she is her poster child of the month, went better than any of them could have imagined.
  13. Thanks everyone! It went welll, better than expected, & she is in ICU recovering
  14. Hi! I have been bad & not posting much. So many new faces on here have no clue who I even am & I am sorry about that. I need to write more & become more involved. I hate to break tradition out of supersticion, my mom is having a procedure today to fix her brain anyerusm. Asking for prayers!!!! Thanks everyone
  15. Sending peaceful hugs your way my friend.
  16. Just echoing what the others said, it is great news to be a candidate for surgery! Both of my parents had it and they both said it was nowhere near as bad as they thought it would be. Good luck!
  17. Lung Cancer may be laughing now, but we will FIGHT the demon so hard that hopefully it will be begging for mercy and we can laugh back at it as we kill the beast. We will all continue to rally and work extra hard, especially in honor of your Tracy. Thinking of you and your family.
  18. If you can't donate at this time, you can still go to the link to sign the guest book and show the family how much Tracy meant to us all here.
  19. I found this on LUNGevity if you want to make a donation in memory of Tracy D (Kasey's niece) http://events.lungevity.org/site/TR/Eve ... 30&pg=fund
  20. Carleen I thikn of you so often. I am so glad that while the pain will never l eave, you have found brightness in your life again. Please keep us updated.
  21. Love you Kasey. Your entire family is in our prayers
