    Welcome back! Glad to hear you had a good time and got to get away from it all! YES you CAN do this! I am actually looking forward to Chemo, strange as it sounds, because I know that will be when I am finally doing something to beat this! I'm tired of all the tests, waiting & wondering, etc...time to move forward. Just think positive thoughts and know that after each treatment you are one step closer to recovery! Hope all goes well Tuesday. Keep in touch and let us know how it goes!
    Prayers & Hugz,
    Cathy

    That was just too short a
    That was just too short a trip. Don't you just want to stay longer sometimes? Although it's nice to get home too. When you start feeling bad during treatment or tired just get your pictures out and look at them and relive the cruise. May you have very few side effects.

    Welcome Back, Pat
    Pat, I have thought of you often, floating out there in the beautiful ocean! Wishing I could be there too. I am so glad you had this opportunity before beginning the chemo. Now you have a "happy place" to go to when the going get rough. Beautiful memories with your family around you. What could be better.
    Chemo begins tomorrow. I believe you are about to discover that you are a lot stronger than you think you are. Remember that we are all here to encourage one another, to build on each others' strengths. Here is a place where your pain is understood.
    I'm praying for you, that it goes well. Write again when you can. Gracie.
