Linda,

I add my thoughts and prayers to those expressed by everyone. I think the world of you and admire your spirit so much. One of the most insidious things about this disease is that it can be marching through your body even as you look so fabulous on the outside. At lunch last week you looked wonderful; I couldn't imagine that the biopsy would be positive.

Please let me know if there is something I can do to help.

Thank you Deborah, you
Thank you Deborah, you looked wonderful too! That phone number I promised is 928-9999, 2121 natomas crossing #100, Harris is the last name.

I hope they can help you. And thank you for the thoughts and prayers.

Hugs,

You are all so special to
You are all so special to me. It truly is because of you that I am able to face this, so many of you have shown me how to face and fight this monster.

After talking with my husband, I chose to tell my kids only that I'm taking a break for now. And that I'll have a CT scan which will determine when I start chemo again. My daughter asked about the dosage, so I told her it would be a different medication.

I found out the Navelbine would be 2 weeks on, one week off and that it doesn't need all those other meds (decadron, zofran, benedryl, etc). That makes it more palatable to me.

I'm also looking at clinical trials and considering a trip to an IBC expert just to get their opinion.

Thank you all for the thoughts, prayers, support, hugs, and offers to help. You are such amazing people and incredibly dear to me.

Hugs,

Linda

Linda,

I'm so sorry you are having to go through this again. You have had a rough road to travel down. It doesn't seem fair that such good people get this beast of a disease. I'll be saying prayers. Glad you are on SSDI now though, it will make going to treatments easier. No worries about work. Just concentrate on yourself and soldier on. Positivity.

CRAP
that's what my bs said to me when she learned that I have lung nodules. I didn't have definitive information at the time (and still don't) but she made it known she was not happy to hear this news.

So. CRAP! I am not happy to hear this news. If I could be there with you, I would hold your hand with each appointment. Wait ... I'd be the Iron Man of cancer and beat the crap out of this beast! Make me a cape and I will soar across every continent letting the beast know it can't win!

OK ... back to reality. I hope you laughed or at least smiled. I try to fill my life with humor and tend to be a bit dorky and crack myself up with these thoughts. HAHA ... I can't know what you are feeling. But I do know that you are so eloquently strong and a fighter.

Please know I am right there with the others praying for you. You are special, Linda.
Take a breath and smell the roses... Literally... While you are taking a break from chemo, get some rest.

Keep us posted, please. Sending gentle hugs and waiting for my cape.
