A GREAT BIG HUG AND HELLO TO ALL OLD TIMERS AND NEWBIES !!!!!!!!!

It has been way too long since I have posted; but I do check-in periodically. I started a new job with Whole Foods Market in May 2012; working 65 hrs a week as well as taking care of all other Mother and Wife chores; whew................... time is flying by....

On another note, my husband and I celebrated our 30th Wedding Anniversary in Sept of this year and went to the Bahamas and stayed at the Sandals Resort; WONDERFUL PLACE AND GREAT TIME; You could always tell when the bar opened :) drinks were in hand or hands LOL

It has been 6 years for me, but the thoughts never go away, panic over every ouch, pain, etc., never goes away; aniexty over scans and bloodwork will never stop, but I can say, it is not on my mind 24/7 like in the beginning.

I am wishing my family here a VERY WONDERFUL Thanksgivings Holiday. Gobble, gobble up as much as you can :)

    So good to here you are doing so well. I just had my 10th treatment of Folfox Monday. Pretty rough stuff. But only 2 more to go, havent reduced any dose or missed any treatment for anything. Hoping to be finished Dec 17th. I hope everyone has a nice thanksgiving.
