    I never got sick

    the entire time I had active cancer and was in tx.  That's weird. I wonder if that is common and if so, what it means?

    I think it means that there

    I think it means that there isn't a lot of truth behind the theory that people with cancer have compromised immune systems. It is really beoming evident with all of the immunotherapies they are working on. It seems that the cancer cells send out seval signals through protiens that fool the immune system into not attacking the cancer cells. So to me it seems like more often than not it's not about compromised immune systems but more about the cancer cells outsmarting the immune system. That is why so many of the new therapies they are working on has more to do with blocking the false protien signals and retraining the immune cells.

    I feel really good today and

    I feel really good today and back to work. I lost some weight from being sick and having to fast for each of the 2 proceedures. I am eatin a hight protien diet for now. I usually eat only a vegetable based diet with some protien but I feel it is very important to maintain a healthy weight. So I got to do what I got to do LOL. I am hoping to ease back into my outdoor activities this week but am going to listen to my body.

    Helen are you the lady on the left or right?  I like to get a mental picture when I can, especially when thinking about you. If you want to say, I know this is the internet and privacy matters.
