J.C. Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Monday and a new week, Grateful that I'll get two crotisone injections this week, so will be able to write and use my hands. Grateful that I'm bilingual and able to read all the news about new treatments for lc on this forum and still see the small print on the regulations for drugs in this country. Quebec is the only French province and always behind in cancer treatment. Avastin will be available to some patients when their annual income is below $75,000. not what we wanted but it is a start. But (another one) the law forgot to write ''family income'' so the news to night will cover this oversight and may make the drug available to more patients.

lilyjohn Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 I'm grateful that once in a while I can find the right words to help someone who I love through a rough time. That seems to ease my own pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welthy Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Great news Ann! I'm grateful for the phone call yesterday from Tony's 80-something, very frail Uncle. What a sweetheart to call and express his concern for Tony. (Too bad not all of his sibs are this considerate.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teriw Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I'm grateful for my wonderful neighbors and friends, Megan and Mike, who shared some wine and conversation with me earlier. They saw us through the entire ordeal, and I'm so grateful for them today. I'm also grateful for my "puppy," Mrs. Dickens, who is like living with a very animated human, and keeps the house "alive."

raneyf Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I am grateful that I started chemo today and I think it's working. Is it possible I feel better already? I think I do and I'm going with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadstimeon Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I'm grateful that I'm still here to be grateful for so many things-- that through it all life still goes on. I still enjoy being with my wife, daughter doing things and I do not let my cancer (nor would I ever) get in the way or loss sight that I'm still a husband, father first and foremost. The HELL with cancer there is life to live! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
