when you rip your clothes off like Hulk Hogan and start bopping and struttin' around sorta like a cross between Mick Jagger and Michael Jackson (or was that James Brown and Joe Cocker)but you know what..........

my damn ostomy bag kept getting in the way.......As a matter of fact, if that rubbery clip at the end were made of steel...........................

I'd be a woman right now!!!!!!!!




Need to wait for surgeon to figure out fluid seen in pelvic area where operated on and micro stuff on lung but reminded radiologist I have lots of scar tissue on lungs, plus a growth on right one, she might want to call my lung doctor ( I probably will too tho I just saw him start of month).....I'd a been yelling from my rooftop but the above kinda brought me down a bit tho radiologist and surgeon seemed pleased and onc said they'd just do next CT earlier than anticipated but that I should "get out of the house and do things."

This was my first post-everything scan so I suppose it could've been worse. I can't really jump around cos I don't want to jostle my insides and I'm too uncoordinated to actually attempt any dancing so I just took a deep breath and smiled to myself and then told girlfriend
Now I;ll take me a walk and pick up something to eat...Wishing wellness for all.....steve

    Good news is always a plus in my book. They always have a hard time interpreting my scans because of all the scar tissue inside of me. Don't worry about it, go have some good days.

    Your good news has made me a very happy today and if I am happy I can just imagine your feelings! I must admit reading about your efforts at doing the "Happy Dance" made me grin...and that was very painful considering I just got back from 2 1/2 hours in the dental chair...and we've only just begun.

    Best wishes.

    Actually, it was a major accomplishment to be able to look
    at my new self naked after colostomy but of course, I'm accustomed to that now...I guess all colostamates go thru that at first......

    A while ago someone had a post about knowing when you're a cancer survivor.......Well, you know you're a COLOSTAMATE when each month a day or so is spent being home for when UPS comes with your monthly ostomy supplies......Have fun....steve

    Well, Steve! I'm so happy for you, but be careful how you do the dance now. We don't want any injuries!
