Cheryl Ferguson Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 Way to go Frank...Having the tumors shrink is great news. I still have 4 tumors in my brain but they have remained unchanged since WBR. I have learned that the size of the tumors doesn't matter to me as long as they are not active. Keep up the continued progress. Cheryl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stand4hope Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 My dear Frank, HANG the typos! We will read and understand your messages no matter what they look like. I rememember well when I first joined this site, you were struggling with typing one key at a time, and Ry and Debi were constantly razzing you. That was fun then and it will still be fun now. So, go ahead and goof up and mess up - we'll get the message. I love you, Frank. You remind me of the Energizer Bunny. You just keep going and going and going and going. May it forever be that way! Love, Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nushka Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 Frank, I am glad you let us know what is going on with you. I love your jokes but when we care about people it is sure nice to know how they really are. Your attitude is wonderful. Praying for a good plan on the chest tumor and that you are more comfortable soon. I am a nightowl too. Let me know if you want to talk and I'll call you on my cell. After all at midnight its free and we will both be up. Thinking of you daily. Nina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasey Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 If any of you guys saw my typos BEFORE I proofread and hit Submit, well.......let's just say it is much worse than being on steroids!!!!! Your disappointment is understood about the shrinkage, but sounds as if you are headed in the right direction and that is what's important. Sorry about the steroids again......I'll look for you when I am up with the hot flashes and insomnia. Boy, wouldn't that make for a great conversation!

joanie55 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Hi Frank, Sending my prayers and wishes for spectacular results. I'm also on the steroid game plan. Wow, food never tasted so good. I'm just afraid I'm going to outgrow all of my clothes. Keep up the great work and I'll try to follow u. Joan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debi Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Frank, I actually think that the drugs improve your typing skills to be perfectly honest... Anyway, although I don't get to post much, you know that I think about you every day. And by the way, I'm thinking I may be close enough to you to hand deliver the chickens. Of course I would know for sure if I could ever pass that geography game in the Just for Fun forum. Until then you're pretty safe. Feel better Frank...

ursol Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Frank, you have such an awesome attitude. My oncologist called me tonight on his way home from work to talk about my next round of chemo and he asked if the neurosurgeon decreased my steroids. I told him the Neurosurgeon told me that you (the onc) would do that. So officially tonight I get my steroids decreased. Had been taking them to decrease swelling around a brain lesion. Gammaknife was done last week. Start chemo next week. P.S. My goal is to live to 100 too just like you. Keep the great attitude because you inspire me. And good luck with your next step, enjoy the holidays! Lilly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
