  1. Dawn,

    In my case we started having meeting at work on Thursdays over lunch. At first it was every other week now it seems to be every week. So a new day would work better for me.

    Thanks,

  2. Hey Debbie,

    I smoked right up until the day of surgery. I was sucking cigs down all the way to the hospital. That was the last day I smoked. I was in the hospital for a week, I figured that would be a good time to quit. I also took Chantix that really helped. Good Luck and Prayers on the way to you and your family.

  3. I'm so sorry you have to go through all of this. I took care of my Mom too, she didn't have cancer though. It one of the hardest things in the world. One thing I did want to mentioin was medication for you. There is nothing wrong with you taking a anti depressant or an anti anxiety right now to get you through this. Prayers are on the way.

  4. I didn't lose a spouse so I can't say I know how you feel, but in a way I do. I lost my Mom 8 months ago, out of the blue. She had congestive heart failure for years and she was in the hospital, just in for another tune up. Then we found out on Saturday she had MRSA (staph) the doc's put her on IV antibiotics and said we'll know more in the morning. The next morning when I went in her mind was gone and she was slipping into a coma, she died a few hours later. Why didn't I stay at the hospital that night? Why didn't I get her into the hospital sooner? Why's don't get me anywhere and Mom would kick my a**. But some days I don't want to live anymore either, life seems just so flat and pointless. But every now and then I am starting to have a good day here and there. I have even caught myself talking to Mom and laughing about something. So some days are getting better. Nobody has yet to tell me anything that makes the pain better, except "I understand".

  5. Hi Tami,

    Glad you found us. I know what a relief it was for me to find this site. I had sugery ULL (upper left lobectomy) followed by chemo. You have a great attitude and you will be able to exercise soon. Be gentle with yourself and welcome aboard!
