    Oh, Bunnie, I am so sorry! I know it's hard to think you are done and then get the rug yanked out from under your feet. There is absolutely nothing about this disease that is fair! I wish I had something wise and wonderful to say, but all I can tell you is that you are not alone. You have my prayers that the chemo will do it's job this time and that it goes quickly for you. Sue

    You hang in there bunnie. Sounds like you are a strong person. So get done with your treatment and then move on to reconstruction. You can do it!!!!

    It is disappointing, but for now try to eat right, focus on getting well and know that this too shall pass. Just take it one day at a time. Be strong and of good courage...the Lord thy God is with thee wherever thou goest. Joshua 1:9

    Bunnie, you are in our thoughts and prayers. I wish so much we could reach out and hug you. I can remember finding a lump in by breast during chemo, and felt like sinking, you are not, KEEP fighting, keep fighting, we are here for you to vent, ramble, be silly or whatever you need. Julia

    Dear Bunnie,

    Oh my goodness,you have so much to be thankful for--I'm not saying your not it's just reconstruction can be done at any time,there are alot of products to use in the meantime.But you are right about getting your health in line FIRST.You are so fortunate and blessed that there is hope of another chance to rid yourself of this disease.Not all are as fortunate--re:I have a friend whose husband with lung cancer got pnemonia,was sent home from the hospital and she was told to call the family home,there's nothing else to be done he's only still alive via the oxygen machine they provided for him.I'm not trying to scare you,I just want you to know there is still something you can do, as unpleasant and yes sometimes painful as It can be-the end results are the reason we put ourselves through all of this so that maybe we will have the opportunity to enjoy all of the things that in the rush of our everyday lives ,somehow, we've forgotten whats really important and we still want the chance to LIVE!!!!

    You are in my thoughts and prayers.Be strong and remember that anything worth having is worth doing what it takes to get there.God Bless YOU!

    w/love
    Sue
