This DE-Motivational poster describes me today.
Well, its Thursday...I was hoping that Romers office would have called me by now about the PET scan results so of course Im freaking out...its amazing how many awful scenarios the mind can come up with if given the right situation and a little time to think about it. I wasnt able to sleep last night. I just wish they'd call! If its bad then will he take me off the Xeloda? I just had the Rx overnighted to my work! AARRGGHH!!! Ugh.

The article was published yesterday and can also be read on line if you arent in town...I was shocked at all the responses to the online version.

I dont consider myself a shy person but this was personal disclosure to the extreme so of course I was feeling that "buyers remorse" last night, like, "Oh my God what have I done"....I thought about doing it and I had written and submitted it before I had a chance to think about it. I dont regret it but I cant describe the feeling. Its a little out of my comfort zone to read about how this is affecting people. I have learned one important thing
...My brother can type? He's capable of thinking of clever backhanded complements? (Nobodys Perfect..JUST ASK MELISSA??) Geez. That boy shocks me everyday.

Anyhoo...its 1:25 and they still havent called. Ill check back around 3p. We're having the internet put in at the house tomorrow afternoon after chemo (IF I EVEN GET IT!!!!) so Ill hop on and post all those pics of our yard being dug up. I know you've all been so excited to see it. I want to warn you, I expected the end of snake to look like something MUCH more dramatic than it was. I was expecting a tumbleweed size root bundle wrapped around the end and it looked more like a fist-sized wad of dirt. Talk about a let down! You'll all be subjected to it sooner or later. Just be thankful that computers arent capable of emitting smells to go along with pictures. My readership would PLUMMET!!! HA!!

Melissa, I am sorry about your bad experience in the church. There are many of us that would be glad to help you, if we could. I pass the following info along to any cancer patient who might be willing to listen. My friend was cured of recurrent cervical cancer with the help of a (somewhat pricy) supplement called ImmunoPower. Traditional medicine seems to ignore the immune system in cancer treatment, go figure. Anyway, the website is www.immunopower.com, if you would like to check it out. And bully for your mom for taking you to a healer! We need to use all the resources we have. God bless. Love, Linda Brown McBrownL@fuse.net
