    Sorry
    I'm not doing chemo, but I'll be praying for you and thinking about you tomorrow.

    Good Luck!
    I wish you the best on #5, please don't be depressed, just think of it as something that is trying to heal you, and make you better, even though it doesn't feel the greatest, think of the positive sides of it, and watch some comedies and read some fun books, take your mind off it, and just let the healing go, we're all with you! I restart my chemo next week, and actually this sounds weird, but I'm looking forward to it, because it's been over a month since I've had it, and want it to keep killing the cancer cells!

    Hugsss and good luck JBG!

    #6 for me
    I started #6 today. I usually start my depression on Friday or Sat. I am feeling good, and can drink cold stuff, and I start thinking about Monday and how I'm gonna want a really cold drink and not be able to have it for 5 or 6 days.I think you really do want what you can't have. But then I start thinking I am a lot closer to the end than i was, and soon enough this too shall pass. We just have to be strong (and hold onto that rope) I wish Buzzard would come back too, but I guess he has his reasons and I will try to respect that. I worry that something could have hqappened to him. But he left us the rope and we won't let it go. Let me tell you also that treatment #5 was my easiest one so far. I wasn't that tired and had very few side effects. Here's praying that you have a good #5 also.
    God Bless You, carletta
