SDianneB Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 For one, that adorable picture of the dog driving the car in all of Mary Ann's posts -- too cute!! Back when I had a CT/PET scan after 2 rounds of chemo, the results were remarkable, and such good news that I drove home and immediately went inside to call my mother. She's 91, in really good health, and had been so worried about me through this that I thought it was time she had some good news, so the first thing I did was call her. She was glad of it too, and so was I. This week, as in other weeks, several people here were having tests and waiting on results, and many of us, myself included, grew impatient waiting on them to get back from their appointments and tell us how things went. It occurred to me that no longer is it allowable to rush home and call your 91 year old mother first -- now, it's required to come here and post your test results first! You guys are great. Really. What a nice bunch of folks to have come across. Di Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patut Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I agree with what you have said Di. And this site has turned out to be not only informative, but almost like "Reality TV" in some cases. (if folks know what I mean). It's a mix of many personalities which makes it so interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaffie Posted October 18, 2004 Share Posted October 18, 2004 I don't know how I would have handled this lung cancer news if it hadn't been for this web site. I think friends and family are waiting for me to think or talk about something besides cancer. Well, it's still too new for me to be able to do that. I come to this web site a few times a day just to read and feel the support, the caring and the feeling of not being alone. I would be a complete mess if I couldn't log on here, or I'd have driven my poor mother crazy calling her 10 times a day Thank you all for being here!! kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
