Update
Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't been on, but the radiation I went through really weakened me more than I thought it would. I finished my radiation treatments last Tues. This coming Tues. I am having a port implanted, then on Fri. I start my chemo - or whatever they decide my treatment will be. It could be immunology, or just chemo, or a combo of the 2. I do appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers and I will keep you updated. Janet

When I went through my chemo and radiation it wasn't bad. They gave me a pill to take before chemo so I wouldn't get sick. Ask about that. I had 4 weeks of 2 kinds and then another 4 weeks of 2 different kinds of chemo. The last 4 I was given Benadryl to help with any allergies I might have. No sickness there but it sure made me sleepy. My hubby would bring me home and I would lay down on the couch and sleep. He would wake me for lunch then back to the couch and sleep more. Then dinner time same thing, bedtime comes along and I would sleep. I also slept in the oncologists office. When I started puttering around the kitchen he would take a seat and I would start cooking again. My treatments were every 2 weeks. That was about 12 years ago. Good luck with yours.

Continuing to pray for you, Janet. Take it easy. At least the radiation is out of the way.

Janet, You have been in my thoughts and prayers. Glad you are through with radiation. Try to keep good thoughts and think of a good place where you would live to visit - like the beach-when you are having treatments. Wishing you the best....

Janet, don't worry about us hearing from you. You are in our thoughts and prayers and we know you are going through such a hard time that you don't feel like posting. Every day prayers are said for you specifically. I honestly wish I were there and could help you in any way I could. Just lean on others and focus on YOU. We care. God be with you and bless you. Pam

Glad to hear from you but focus on YOU and your treatments, we’re here for you and if you are too busy and/or tired to get on the chat, like Pam said, we know you need the rest and it’s important you get your rest....

I’ll still throw you a teddy bear picture once in a while but you don’t need to respond, just enjoy the Teddy and rest😊
