Ry Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Gee Ray, Deja Vu. My husband said the exact same thing many many times. It improved for him and for you, this too shall pass. You got to rest up for the big New Jersey get together. I'm jealous! Hang in there Ray. Quote
cathy Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 I'm sorry Ray. I dont blame you for being sick and tired. Sure wish I could help. I'M jealous too wish I could be at the get together. Quote
Don Wood Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Funny thing, Ray -- that is exactly what Lucie says from time to time. I think it is the cancer survivor's motto during treatments. Best to you. Don Quote
kimblanchard Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 My God, you must have heard me. My husband & I were just coming back from the Onc's office where I had to go to get blood work and on the way home I was saying the exact same thing except more. I am having a pity party day, was saying "it's not fair" "why did I have to get this disease", etc, etc. "I am sick of it, blah, blah." I think we earned the right to have days like this Bess B Quote
Remembering Dave Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 I think Dave is also sick and tired of being sick and tired! Hang in there, Ray, hang in there!! Take care, Karen C. Quote
rinksgal Posted October 2, 2003 Posted October 2, 2003 Darrell just told his oncologist the exact same thing today!!! He's sick of being sick and tired all the time!! But he also in his next breath told the oncologist to hit him with everything they have and then some!! And that he wants to beat this! He said, "Whatever it Takes, I'm willing!" Just keep hanging in there Ray!! I know this is soo very hard for all of you! I feel for each and every one of you having to go through so much!! Good Luck! Christy Quote
Remembering Dave Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Hey Ray!!! I know exactly how you feel, as do many of us here. Hang in there buddy you can do it. Keep your mind busy and your body as active as possible. Push yourself. Fight, fight, fight!!!!!!!! David C Quote
Sam'swifeShirley Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Hey Ray, Been there, done that, got a T-shirt. It's one of those "cancer sucks" things. It will pass after treatment. Hang tight bro and know we're all here to listen when you need it. Sam Quote
dadstimeon Posted October 3, 2003 Posted October 3, 2003 Hi Ray, Stay positive and focus on what you can and need to do. Do not dwell on the negative. It’s wasted energy. It will bring us down my friend. Take one day at a time, take one step at a time. Take care and God Bless. Rich PS: Laughter is the best medicine Quote
RAY A Posted October 3, 2003 Author Posted October 3, 2003 Thanks my brothers and sisters for the uplifting support. I go today to start another round of chemo. I will be going for chemo all the way to christmas. after this round I will be geting ct scan and MRI to see if the RAD. worked for the head and the chemo is working for the adrenal glands. Quote

HUMMMMM!!!! THEN................... I MIGHT HAVE to go back in AGAIN in 3 or 4 months to have my right lung resected, if that nodule is cancer on my upper lung!!!! ISH!!!! BOY this is a tough one my friend!! BUT, I know how your feeling and damn it, it sucks. BUT when it's over and your cancer is DEAD AND GONE, you'll look back and say, WOW, where has the time GONE?????? That's what I am counting on anyway, for the BOTH OF US along with EVERYONE ON THIS BOARD LIVING IN THIS NIGHTMARE!! Sending you HUGE HUGS Little BRO!!!! ((((((((((RAY)))))))))))) Quote
kimblanchard Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 It must have something to do with the month of October. Ever since September turned to October, I have been the all time BRAT of the year. I fired my husband at least twice. From what you ask? Everything. I think he was pretty grateful last time though. Everything he was doing was wrong. I couldn't do the things he was doing; however, he was still doing them wrong. I've had the hardest time breathing, the pain in my hip and leg has intensified, and my blood counts were down again this week keeping me from getting chemo. I've complained to anyone who will listen. Just a whiner I tell you. I'll hand tough with you if you'll listen to my complaints. Sue M[/u][/i][/b] Quote
Tiny Posted October 7, 2003 Posted October 7, 2003 Ray, The honesty is refreshing, and I hope it helps you to be able to open up to us. You've got my prayers coming your way EVERY day. Love and hugs. Quote
