How's your fatigue Lisha?

Thanks for asking
Hi Sue,
Thanks for asking. I seem to be mostly back to my normal clock. The fatigue is another story. I still am very tired and have very little energy. But I can keep my eyes open during the day. Just got home from grocery shopping. My hubby always goes with me these days. Now I am ready to just put my feet up and watch the GIANTS play ball.... Woohooo !!
It sounds like your getting somewhat used to the Devil P. I am glad that today is the last for the next few weeks.
This really has been a very difficult time for me on so many levels. I am trying to find the small joys in each day. The great news about Vinny and John is so uplifting. My mom in law is not doing well at all. We think her time is very short. Oh so sad. As for me, thinking about all the up coming medical stuff, well it just sucks..
I have done the rads before and this time they are upping the total dose. Lame is all I can say to that! When that is done I most likely will go on to the next phase of tx. Did I mention I Hate Cancer..
Peaceful healing always
Lisha

I "truely" understand!
Hi Lisha,
Cancer not only sucks, it's a "**** on wheels"!!! I have barely begun this battle and there are days when I just sit down and cry like a baby. Not just for myself, but for every soul out there dealing with it. When I start thinking about the long haul of what might be ahead, or the "what if's" I get profoundly scared, and sad. Most of the time I am able to put myself in check through my faith and with all of the loving support from my family and friends, but sometimes....well....nothing works. I think about everyone in this group, each day of the week, and I truely think I'd be a terrible mess if I hadn't connected to this site. I think of you also every day and it makes me sad you have so much on your plate. I will continue to keep good positive thoughts and pray that along the way you will get stronger and your burdens lighter. This damn cancer makes you feel so helpless to make things better for those we care about that are hurting. Thats the part that really really "sucks" for me. Libra's are fixers and this is something we just can't fix for anyone...even ourselves. I'm here for you...anytime Lisha. Love, Sue

Scared Sheetless
Sue,
I still remember the 1st time you posted on this site. I could tell you did not know what to do or where to begin. I read your post and realized I was in the same position just a few weeks earlier. We are not only scared, but confused as hell to boot. Nobody other than you and I and all the others here really understand that.I had not even had my first treatment yet, but my short watch and wait was over and I was being scheduled for my 1st chemo.It made me feel good to be able to help even if just a little bit at the time. I was headed into the unknown just like everyone else before me. I had a lot more time to think things out and it became a little easier. When I saw your post It bought back a lot of memories from a few weeks before. It takes a while at first but we do start to settle in after a while. Just like you I have those days of what ifs. They get fewer and further apart after a while, but they are still there. John

You were the first...
You were the first to respond back in July. I was diagnosed mid June and until I found this site I was a total complete mess! You helped more than you will ever know John. Your right...it "has" gotten wayyy better. This group is just the "best"!!!...Sue (FNHL-2-3A-6/10)
