powerful women
Just goes to show that for powerful women like Linda P, one thread ain't enough! As one of the oldies here, thought you'd want to know that Mom is still with us -- getting frail but what a fighter. With your wit and intelligence, I can only imagine what it's like to have a house full of offspring. Are they all like young versions of you? AAAWWEsome. Hoping for peaceful days ahead.0 -
Great idea Val
Before my diagnosis I was so bloated. It was not ascites but gas. I kept joking to my husband that I needed a button to push so I could just relieve the pain. Somedays I was besides myself. I did not have ascites, but that cancer related gas was so painful. I can only imagine your reflief at having your "relief button" put in.
I like that you set boundaries and rest. It is so hard to do. Everyone wants sometime with you. The resting gives you more time and more of you to share.
I can't offer much but my online support. I am here. Vent, type, if need be use your computer to scream and yell at the world. We are hear and we listen.0 -

Linda, you have been a blessing to me. I remember when my husband found this site and I connected with you and others here. You have provided us with so much valid information, coaching and encouraging us through the rough times, advocating for us, and showing how a full life is lived.
The words "thank you" don't seem adequate. I wish you love, joy, peace, contentment.
With prayers and admiration, Mary Ann0 -
Although I have not been on
Although I have not been on this board for long and have been away for awhile, I have always found Linda to be a source of strength for all of us. I am inspired by your fighting spirit and hope that you are getting some relief from your drain. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
