Nancy, I got some mucinexDM and am taking 2 before bed. It has helped but I still have some problems with it. Thanks for recomending it though. God Bless, Jane

Leslie, Great to hear you have embraced this treatment and all is going well. You sound a whole lot different than thay woman that was so scared ( and right so) that posted when you first got word of what you had and what needed to be done. Your a very strong vibrant woman Leslie and I am so glad you are doing so well. God Bless you, Jane

Dear Beth, We most assuradly understand you're being away and trying to make some sense of you're recent loss. Time heals and you need that time. I was happy to see you post and look forward to you being back with us when you are able. Please take that time and take care of yourself and your boys. We arent going anywhere and will be here when you need us. God Bless you and yours, Jane

Melinda, I do hope my post did not offend you. I was just speaking from my heart and said how I felt. I did think it was written by someone else and not you and that you had shared it. Thank you for that and for giving us all something to think about. We love you here Melinda and I am praying that you continue to stay and to share what ever touches you're heart. God Bless you Sweetie, Jane

Dear Brian, I cant believe I am just seeing this post! I think the world of Joanie and she is in my prayers. Maybe it was a good thing I saw this now as things have improved so much. Please give her a kiss for me and remember God will take good care of her. My prayers for you also and my thanks for being such a great husband in keeping us all so informed. God bless you both, Jane

I am not sure I would say cancer is a gift. I would however say the lessons learned, the appreciation for the clarity it provokes are gifts. So much of what you have said is beautiful and I wish that all cancer patients were able to see or feel the way you have written it but sadly they are not. A depression can set in that doesnt allow any of those things you speak about to transpire. I dont have cancer that I am aware of but my Brother and Sister did and I know I never considered that a gift to me or the rest of the people that knew and loved them. It was prayers said day and night hopeful that cancer could be erased and health could return. Please dont get me wrong, I see what you are saying and see the gifts that can be derived from the dx of cancer but cancer in itself is not a gift in my opinion. God Bless you, Jane

Dear Cheryl, I am sure hospice will be able to help you emotionaly get through this and physically and mentally help you're dear Husband. They are wonderful people and dont be afraid to call them when ever you feel the need. They will be there for both of you. I am also praying that this will help to channel you're husbands anger and help to make the time he has left happy memories for the both of you seasoned with a whole lotta love! God Bless you both, Jane

Jen, What a wonderful post and tribute to you're adorable Mom! Thank you so much for sharing her with us, I only wish I had known her in person! God Bless you all, Jane

Dear Nina, I am so happy for you. There will be many many more wonderful milestones along the way!! God Bless you, Jane

Dear Cindi, Thank you for sharing all of that. I know it must have been very hard to just type it with the feelings you are having. Your darn right you have a good attitude and your darn right you are alive and able to love , smile, laugh and cry amoung so many other things! We all love you here and will always be here for you. You dont always have to be the one that cheers up everyone else. You are allowed to feel and say how you are hurting and grab some support from us! I am so sorry things are as difficult as they are for you. You are a wonderful person and you are in my prayers Sweetie! God Bless you always, Jane

Dear Lori, I am so sad for you both! What a burden to bear. God has a plan. I am praying for you both. Please keep coming back and letting us help you in any way we can. God Bless, Jane

No question... The Gathering God Bless, Jane

I called and talked to a very long lost and very loved girlfriend that was my best friend almost all my years until I married and moved away. She had just recently lost her brother to Cancer and her dad to a heart attack within the past 2 months. Although our talk of that was sad, we could have talked forever. It was wonderful just to hear her voice again! God Bless you all, Jane

Lynda, How right you are! I would run into a burning house to save my pictures as they are my past and they are of the people I love most dearly. If I could only have one thing in my house, it would definantly be my pictures!!! I love you're what cancer can not take. God Bless you, Jane

My being a heavy smoker though puts me in a different light when it comes to this. I seem to have a lot of post nasal drip but it is definantly worse at night. I used to take Nightime when it bothered and I couldnt sleep because of it but lately when I take it, it doesnt help like it used to. It helps some but I still have it. Having no insurance I have not had it checked out and I wonder how they would check it out anyway. I cant say I am not concerned but I am living with it. God Bless, Jane

JC, My husband and I are doing the same thing as you and Mike. I wouldnt want it any other way! God Bless you, Jane

My very small urn that has Alan's ashes in it. I also have the full size urn here that will be buried when the ground is opened when my Mother passes away as he will be buried with my parents. God Bless, Jane

I am having this problem quite badly but thought it was post nasal drip or an allegy I never knew I had. Is this a sign that something is wrong?? God Bless, Jane

Larry!! We are looking for you. Praying all is well with you and you're wonderful wife. Please, please check in. God Bless you both, Jane

Thank you Jen for sharing you're Mom with us. She sounds like she was an awesome Lady!! I pray for strength and God's Comfort for you and your family. God Bless you all, Jane

Awesome pictures Frank, they dipic you well Connie is beautiful and you both look happy. How can you not be with all you're favorite things within hands reach??? LOL God Bless you, Jane

Dear Leslie, You sound GREAT!! What a wonderful fighting attitude you have. Thats the way to beat it girl!! My Sister had breast cancer and lost all her hair and wore wigs. Before losing it she got herself a really nice one and also bought herself a short sporty sexy one for at home. At bedtime she wore a cap. She did say the wigs made her head hot. Her own hair has grown back in and looks wonderful. She likes it far better than she did her original hair!! Keep up that wonderful attitude and you will be just fine!! God Bless You, Jane

Dear Gail, How wonderful!! May you continue to see him make you even prouder!! God bless you, Jane

Dear Cheryl, How very sad. The social workers didnt help so you need to persue other types of help. Watching your loved one suffer through cancer is punishment enough! You seem to be an easy target for him as he knows how much you love him and takes his anger out on you, probably not knowing what to do with it or how to channel it. What ever the case may be, get the help you need. If you try in one place and it doesnt work, dont stop until you get the help you need and hopfully he gets the help he needs to deal with this and understand that it is not just "all about him" you are suffering too. I pray for you both! God bless you both, Jane

Dear Beth, May God comfort you. Thank you for sharing Bill's obit. He will be greatly missed. God Bless you and yours, Jane
