How do you make a cat be a dog?
Pour gasoline on it and light it with a match. It will go 'WOOF.'

A man went to the mall to buy Valentine's Day cards for his son and mother.
The 50 feet of displays for hundreds of cards astounded him
He muttered out loud, "I wonder if they have anything for ex-wives."
The clerk behind the counter said, "Oh, yes sir they do, but they're in Sporting Goods."
"Really?" exclaimed the man.
"Yes sir. They're called darts."
A few minor adjustments to get points for the men.

Ralph and Elaine were both patients in a mental hospital.
One day while they were walking past the hospital swimming pool, Ralph suddenly jumped into the deep end. He sank to the bottom of the pool and stayed there. Elaine promptly jumped in to save him. She swam to the bottom and pulled Ralph out.
When the Head Nurse became aware of Elaine's heroic act she immediately ordered her to be discharged from the hospital, as she now considered her to be mentally stable.
When she went to tell Elaine the news she said, "Elaine, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you're being discharged; since you were able to rationally respond to a crisis by jumping in and saving the life of another patient, I have concluded that your act displays sound mindedness. The bad news is, Ralph, the patient you saved, hung himself right after you saved him with his bathrobe belt in the bathroom. I am so sorry, but he's dead."
Elaine replied "He didn't hang himself. I put him there to dry. How soon can I go home?"

A 90-year-old man said to his doctor, "I've never felt better. I have an 18-year old bride who is pregnant with my child. What do you think about that?"
The doctor considered his question for a minute and then said, "I have an elderly friend who is a hunter and never misses a season. One day when he was going out in a bit of a hurry, he accidentally picked up his umbrella instead of his gun. When he got to the Creek, he saw a rabbit sitting beside the stream. He raised his umbrella and went, 'bang, bang' and the rabbit fell dead. What do you think of that?"
The 90-year-old said, "I'd say somebody else killed that rabbit."
The doctor replied, "My point exactly."

Diane,
What wonderful memories you have of your Dad. He will be surly missed by you and your family. People like that leave you with such great memories, going on is so much easier. Think the good thought through this tough time.

Good for some points, always when poking fun at G.W. Bush.

Fay,
Best of everything to get in the GVAX trial. You have got the whole chest full of hope.
Like you say."All body parts are crossed."
I am going to have to stock up on chicken jokes, while you gone.
Have a safe trip.

Ann,
I had and still have some problems with frozen shoulder. I went to a PT for two months. He said it only heals with time. It takes a year to 18 months. I could not raise my arm very high or reach behind me very well. Like to tuck my shirt in my pants.
He said some people still believe in having the procedure you spoke of. He feeling on that is it causes scaring and creates a situation for further problems.
He massaged and worked my shoulder to the point of near pain. It helped some, but it always went back to where it was again. He said not to push it to where it hurt.
It has gotten better. I also got it in my other shoulder, but not as bad. That one I did not push it until it hurt like I had done with the first one. Before the PT I would push against my elbow to push my sholder where it did want to go. The old no pain no gain. PT said this is one time not to think that way.
I had thought it might be my cancer. My first onc said that I would eventualy have shoulder problems with the tumor growing.
Good luck
John

Now you can say, "Been there, done that, and bought the tee shirt."

POOF
in JUST FOR FUN
An old lady sits on her front porch, rocking away the last days of her long life, when all of a sudden, a fairy godmother appears and informs her that she will be granted three wishes.
''Well, now,'' says the old lady, ''I guess I would like to be really rich.''
*** POOF *** Her rocking chair turns to solid gold.
''And, gee, I guess I wouldn't mind being a young, beautiful princess.''
*** POOF *** She turns into a beautiful young woman.
''Your third wish?'' asks the fairy godmother. Just then the old woman's cat wanders across the porch in front of them. ''Ooh - can you change him into a handsome prince?'' she asks.
*** POOF ***
There before her stands a young man more handsome than anyone could possibly imagine. She stares at him, smitten. With a smile that makes her knees weak, he saunters across the porch and whispers in her ear, ''Bet you're sorry you had me neutered.''

Kam,
Welcome aboard. I can say this about chemo and radiation. Everyone reacts differently. I started with radiation every working day and low dose chemo once a week. The radiation made my throat sore, but manageable. I had slight nausea, but never vomited. They always gave me an IV of something to prevent the nausea. My worst days were the second and third days after chemo. I always recovered by the fourth day. Although never back to the point I was before dx. This went on from June through September. October through until March I had various chemos. I always recovered from each treatment but never back completely. It eventually wears you down. Down begins to look like up.
Watch out for fevers and keep an eye on blood counts. When I first started full dose chemo my blood counts got really low. I ended up in the hospital for 5 days getting ride of an infection and upping my blood counts.
Drink lots of water before and after both radiation and chemo.
I have been on Iressa since March of 2002. I still get fatigued in the middle of the day. I used to nap everyday for an hour. I do not sleep any more in the middle of day, but have to lay down for a while.
I hope I have given you something to take to your Dad. My best to you and your family battling this beast. John

Oh, I am doing a clinical trial without even knowing it.
Gee I'll have to come up with a few others.
Hummmm I thought it was the Iressa that was working for John. Maybe it's the red wine! -
Glad to see you are posting again. We need all the votes we can get. I know what Kerry feels like. It would be nice if G.W. Bush spent the same money on lung cancer as he did on terrorism.

Transport to/ from Treatments
in NSCLC GROUP

I am not sure but I think the American Cancer Society will provide this service. Check with the people who will perform the treatment they may know of a service. I know there are people transported to the center I go to all the time.
Good luck John
