Donna G Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 Welcome Jen. Glad you found us. Do you live near your Mother in law? Chemo makes you tired for sure, it is so helpful to have someone willing to chip in on the everyday tasks. Does she have a good support team? Hope we can help you.

Maryanne Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Jen, So sorry about the distressing news about your MIL. I know how scarey that is to hear that news. We have all been through what you are going through. You are not alone. Please know that it will get better. LC is not a death sentence as so many here have beaten the odds. Just keep a positive attitude and know that once she starts treatiment she will start to feel much better. We are always here for you to support and send prayers .

legslong Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 See I did follow your suggestion and signed up with the group. You can keep an eye on my progress if I did the profile correctly. I have a Bone Scan Scheduled for Feb 21, 2006 will let you know when I get results. Blood test are still good, in the norms and better yesterday than Feb 1, 2006. Must be the talking I have been doing to my unused part of the brain telling it to build those WBC, HMGB, Platelets and kill the cancer cells. HA! HA! It really does help to read other peoples story's. Talk to you later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
