"Crazy" is the last thing I would call you, Craig!

Brave, smart, and and able to endure, yes...but not crazy.  Despite everything you've gone through, you're about as well put together as anyone I know.  I'm sorry those biopsies were so painful (really-that sounds horrible), but I guess they had to be done to get the information you need.  Now to move onward to the next step, and hopefully the development of a decent plan to deal with this sh**.  

Sending lots o' love your way~AA

When I was a kid, my older sister used to inflict 52 Card Pick-up on me.  I was such a dumb kid, if she just waited a few months in between each episode, I would forget the "rules" of the game.  She got me every time, for a long time, until finally I wised up, remembered how it went down the last time, and refused to play.  I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that this will be your last game too, and you'll walk away from it leaving cancer standing there with a disappointed look on its face (kind of how my sis looked that last time).

Once again!  I'm sorry you had so much trouble with the biopsies, but hopefully that will be the worst of it.  I admire your vigilence and attitude.  Thank you for continuing to share your experiences with us.  While difficult sometimes to read (and I know it's 100x worse for you going through it) it's knowledge that gives us all power.  I feel my husband and I are still in the "honeymoon" phase of cancer - 1st CT scan since chemo ended scheduled for 8/19 and followup appt. is 8/22.  I think we're both a little numb right now, not sure to be exicted or scared, probably both right now.

I hope your appt. tomorrow gets things started to kick cancer's butt again.  I know you can do it Craig!!

Sending a hug

Sending you a huge (but gentle) hug my friend.  I wish this wasn't happening.  Know that so many of us hold you dear.

 

Aloha,

Kathleen

Angry, speechless and kicking things. WHY is high on my list. You went through so much already, you are an Icon here, you take the advice and do Rad. And then ....... If I was not the lady my mother brought me up to be I would type a few explicit s .

Of course life is never fare, for none if us. As my daughter tried to tell me at the time, this is another speed bump, or high hurdle.

just when you think things are going ok s&%#t happens. Craig, like the gentle roaring Lion you are.......You can do this.

No ifs and/or buts. You will beat the damn thing back and show it who is boss. There is an army of board members here standing on the barricade with you.

Big Hugs, Marjan
