OK...set me straight. When I read your post I sometimes see Kanga.. or Jen..or kangatoo.. or Ross n Jen? Is there two of you, and are you married? Is Ross another name for Kanga? LOL sorry, just what to know who to say thank-you too for your kindness. By the way.. My husband hinted for me to wear thong underwear. A floss??
I said I will if you will... that was the end of the conversation. Hugs ~ Wanda

    Ok Wanda--here's tha straight n narrow! lol! I was dx'd aug. 03, stage 2, surgery for resection descending colon/sigmoid, 6 months 5FU/Leucovorin.(you may want to read my personal page...just don't look at my pic!!lol!) I am Ross aka, kanga and Jen is my "angel", wife of 30 years. I am the one who replies 'cos Jen can never get me off tha keyboard. I have been coming here since my dx in 03 and so am still here-figure I need to repay a debt to all my/your family on here. I am currently just over 12 months NED(no evidence disease) , have 2 monthly bloods done and ultrasounds of abdomen, mainly liver, 3 monthly...and yes..it scares tha hell outa me too!!!
    I probably could be considered a bit of a court jester here....currently ranking 2nd to SpongeBob(Bob), who seems to be awol at the moment!
    (Bob--where art thou?....make sure yah bring a note)
    I digress-sorry.
    Although I suffer from "being scared too" Wanda I have trouble sleeping--hell--everyone here knows that!!lol!
    Nonetheless I try to get on with things, one of those being supporting others here as they supported me--NO END!!!!
    And occassionally I go out on a limb with a bit of humour--hopefully to brighten up some-ones day--well--I try too.
    I am also a giver of "rainbows" to the needy. Close your eyes Wanda and imagine "kanga's rainbow", all the colours and follow to the end. There you will find not a pot of gold----but all the love we have to give!
    errrrr--that's an intro to kanga(Ross) n Jen

    ---a thong in OZ is a g-string! Make sure you get a nice lace one to show hubby Wanda!!he!he!
    be well, b safe,
    luv n huggs, kanga n Jen

    btw.....sorry if yah can't understand me ozzie slang!
