sliding into 3rd...base...

and Clay , what's the latest Bro?

Anyway, the Oncologist has extended my every 3 month recurrence check up ( you know the kind) to every 6 months for a year,. So, that is good news.

then after that it goes back to Stirrups once a year.

I have been sick as a pup for weeks. IN BED--* ALONE****with some kind of nasty germ that took me down,.Upper respiratory infection that was so bad I went to the doctor about it. Couldn't breathe , swallow, ribs felt like they were broken, coughed till , well, it was nasty.

Doc said, you probably caught some kind of virus while traveling ( flights to Montreal, Toronto, all over USA .MY BRAIN...screamed EBOLA...nope, just bronchial pneumonia kind of thing. and guess my immune system isn't what it used to be.

Hummingbirds chirping about their feeder, colorful landscape, , looking out the front window at my beautiful spring garden in bloom.

Wish you all well.

Hey,guys.

Looks like I never updated you. In Jan 2015, I got my colonoscopy (I suppose it had been a year out since the last one), and I had a pretty big polyp. It was benign, but he was concerned how big it had gotten so fast. He said I needed to get another in six months. Sooo, guess what time it is? Yep, 6 months later. Fun. I am playing phone tag right now with scheduling

It is also time for my CAT scan so that is scheduled for the end of July.

I will keep you all updated.

I hope that everyone is healthy.

Hello to all,

I am thankful for being directed to this thread.

I have spent some time reading back learning of other peoples journeys and the support you offer each other.

I was very very happy to hear so many of you coming out the other side and living full, happy and healthy lives.

I will share a little of my own story later.

Wishing you all gentle days.

Daisy

Hello all, I wish each and everyone of you a healthy happy journey.

Tommi · 07-13-2015, 01:45 PM

Wheeeee

Life goes on.

We got married May 2, 2015. . No time for cancer. Time for each other, time to travel, time for her folks who are in the sunset of their lives. Time to blend 2 pet families, and households of furniture. What a wonderful woman, what an amazing two years since we met.

No time for thinking about that recurrence the month we met. Enjoying the sexiest apron clad cook that feeds me healthy stuff, and waits on me hand and foot, without even realizing how wonderful she is. I want for nothing but time, lots more time.

girlin2une · 07-13-2015, 07:37 PM

So, I got up the nerve to post in here mainly due to Dapper Butch's post in the Zombie thread, encouraging others to post... my story is relatively new.
End of February/beginning of March is when I had radiation...I won't go too far into detail as I have been so very private about everything so far and just need an outlet I think...*I digress...* I have been dealing with cervical issues since my daughter (now 6) was 2...
I'm very reluctant to go into great detail... (can you tell?) and this year has been a year of big things for me... mostly hard...but... I will say this... my last biopsy since radiation is negative... that's a good thing...

now to stay in the clear for 5 years... then I will be considered cancer free...!!
