  1. In a Chicago hospital, a gentleman had made

    several attempts to get into the men's

    restroom, but it had always been occupied.

    A nurse noticed his predicament.

    Sir, she said," You may use the ladies room if

    you promise not to touch any of the buttons on

    the wall."

    He did what he needed to, and as he sat there

    he noticed the buttons he had promised not to

    touch. Each button was identified by letters:

    WW, WA, PP, and a red one labeled ATR. Who would

    know if he touched them?

    He couldn't resist.. He pushed WW. Warm water

    was sprayed gently upon his bottom. What a nice

    feeling, he thought. Men's restrooms don't have

    nice things like this.

    Anticipating greater pleasure, he pushed the

    WA button. Warm air replaced the warm water,

    gently drying his underside.

    When this stopped, he pushed the PP button. A

    large powder puff caressed his bottom adding a

    fragile scent of spring flowers to this

    unbelievable pleasure.. The ladies restroom was

    more than a restroom, it is tender loving

    pleasure.

    When the powder puff completed its pleasure,

    he couldn't wait to push the ATR button which he

    knew would be supreme ecstasy.

    Next thing he knew he opened his eyes, he

    was in a hospital bed, and a nurse was staring

    down at him.

    "What happened?" he exclaimed. The last thing I

    remember was pushing the ATR button.

    "The button marked ATR is an Automatic

    Tampon Remover. Your penis is under your pillow."

    Men Never Listen.

  2. I DID have an allergic reaction to carboplatin on my 6th and final dose but no one forwarned that it might happen. All of a sudden I felt very "wierd" and my face turned bright red. Let me tell you - chemo nurses get VERY excited when this happens. They stopped the infusion (it was mostly in anyway), gave me some medications and the symptoms went away.

  3. I always got benadryl and steroids before receiving taxol and carboplatin. They are given so you tolerate the chemo better and decrease the risk of side effects while they are being administered. If they are making you sick, you might ask the doctors/nurses if there is an alternative they could give you.

  4. One day, a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river, and her thimble fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord appeared and asked,"Why are you crying?"

    The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water, and she needed the thimble to make her living. The Lord went down into the water and reappeared with a golden thimble. "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked.

    The

    seamstress replied,"No."

    The Lord again went down and came up with a silver thimble "Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. Again, the seamstress replied,"No."

    The Lord went down again and came up with a wooden thimble."Is this your thimble?" the Lord asked. The seamstress replied,"Yes."

    The Lord was pleased with the woman's honesty and gave her all three thimbles to keep, and the seamstress went home happy.

    Some time later, the seamstress was walking with her husband along the riverbank, and her husband fell into the river.! When she cried out, The Lord again appeared and asked her,"Why are you crying?" "Oh Lord, my husband has fallen into the water!"

    The Lord went down into the water and came up with Mel Gibson."Is this your husband?" the Lord asked. "Yes," cried the seamstress. The Lord was furious.

    "You Lied! That is an untruth!"

    The seamstress replied, "Oh, forgive me, my Lord. It is a misunderstanding.

    You

    see, if I had said 'no' to Mel Gibson, you would have come up with Tom Cruise.

    Then if I said 'no' to him, you would have come up with my husband.

    Had I then said 'yes' you would have given me all three. Lord, I am a poor woman and am not able to take care of three husbands, so THAT'S why I said yes to Mel Gibson."

    The moral of this story is: Whenever a woman lies, it is for a good and honourable reason, and it's for the benefit of others.

    That's our story, and we're sticking to it!

  5. I had a follow-up CT this morning and the unofficial report is that everything is stable with possibly a small decrease in the pleural effusions. Good news! (although I'd love to hear NED) I'll keep taking the Avastin - so far so good. We're celebrating tonight! :D

  6. Bo,

    I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "a group that's active in their own recovery". Could you explain further what you mean?

    I know that since I was diagnosed I have been reading everything I can get my hands on to learn about improving my health and recovering from this (as have most, if not all, of the people at this site).

  7. Whoops! Thanks Connie for clueing me in on the correct name.

    I gotta tell you, when I sent the email to Oprah, I was in such a tizz (sp?) it's a wonder I remembered my own name. I was (am) so upset by David A's death, I just felt like I HAD to do SOMETHING.

    I know it's a long shot that she'll pick up the idea but agree we have to keep trying because someday someone may pick up the story.

    My gut feeling (and I really don't have much to base this on) is that the media may be more likely to listen to an idea from individuals than from an organization. Also, many womens magazines often have articles written by freelance authors. Has anyone here ever done anything like that before?

    I'd really like us to make a difference to honor all of the people we have lost to this crappy disease in the past few months.

    Jane
