Acupuncture is working!!!!!!
Anyway ladies i have another dilema that i'm hoping someone can help me with. Does anyone know where i can get life insurance that will take me with my health condition???????? I tried globe life and was turned down and i made a few other calls and asked questions over the phone only to find out that i would probably be turned down other places to because of it. Can anyone shed any light on this because i wanna get a policy going to cover my family in any event. Please help!!!!!!
Oh yeah, i'm still doing chemo every monday...3 mondays on and one off. It's working well. Tumor marker numbers have gone from 865 to 561. I was happy as all hell to hear that monday before my treatment. I feel great, look good and am looking forward to my cruise and saturday's acupuncture appt that i go to every week.
Love you guys and i hope everyone is feeling good.

Hi Babe
That's great news!! So glad you found relief from your pain. You must be counting down the days until your vacation! What a wonderful way to celebrate. That's also excellent news about the marker level! I can feel your high-spirited energy through your words! You sound like you are progressing very well. Keep the faith.
As for life insurance, I wasn't having much luck in that department either, then yesterday I received an offer for a policy from $3,000-$10,000 from Mutual of Omaha. No exam, no medical ?'s. It clearly says: "You can't be turned down if you're 45-85 regardless of any health problems you've had or have right now." However, there is a clause that benefits are "reduced" the first 2 years. The beneficiary will receive the full premium paid + 10% w/in that time. I'm still checking into it because it does mention natural causes a little too much so I'm wondering about sickness or disease. Anyhow, if you want to check it out you can go to: www.mutualdirect.com/sal or 1-800-801-5207. Hope it helps. I know someone else was asking about this too, so if anyone has found a reputable company, please let us know!

Let me just say...I Love
Let me just say...I Love you! First, seeing your name on the boards made me happy, but knowing that accupuncture is working, OMG~ what a gift! You deserve every good thing coming your way, and that you and your hubby are going to celebrate and vacation is beyond words wonderful!
I don't know about the healthcare/insursance question. If the damned congress and senate would just give US the health coverage that THEY and their families have...well don't get me started! LOL
Stay Strong~ you are such a Warrior-Survivor! You definately put the GRRRR in Girl-Power!

You have made my day! Seriously, you have Babe! I couldn't be happier for you! For you to finally get relief from your pain is just the best!
I am wishing that you and your husband have the best cruise ever! You go girl!
I wish I could help you out for health insurance, but, I know it isn't easy. Luckily, I had health and life insurance before my first bout with bc. And, after I was clean for 10 years, I upped my life insurance. Keep trying Babe. I am sure someone can help you out.
Once again, thanks for telling us about your good news! You are always in my prayers!
Love, Jeanne ♥</♥</font>0 -
GREAT to "see" you here, Babe!
And even better - your post is full of really good news! Sooo glad you're getting relief from the acupuncture - and, of course, I sincerely hope the relief continues to increase with future treatments. Great news on the markers, too.
Way to go, girl! Congratulations on booking the cruise - sending early (very!) Happy Birthday/Happy Cruise wishes to both you and your husband.
Kind regards, Susan0 -
