I am going to bed now but want everyone who read my post and especially those of who commented, how moved I am by your kindness and concern and good wishes. In looking at the posts I realized that about half of you I know and the other half, I know of you, from this board. I thank Steve for giving me this forum on which to post and on which you reply with kindness and I daresay love. If you see me on the street and I tell you that I love you, don't be shocked. You really come to value people you may have taken for granted when you have something like this drop in your lap. Thankfully I have certainty in my heart and my head that I am now free of this stuff, although more treatment may be necessary, I will joyously look forward to it as it is just a step on my journey to full and complete recovery. Love to all, T.J.
I've sent you my private thoughts in a PM. Publicly, Vero and I wish you all the best for a speedy and complete recovery. We're thinking positive thoughts for you. You do the same for yourself.
Glad to hear you are doing better... My Mom was told she has Ovarian Cancer at the End of May, and it was already staged to the highest level at 4. As of now, no cure for Ovarian Cancer, but my Mom is doing wonderful. She's had 1 series of 6 chemo treatments, and Has recently started a second series of chemo, but has went through only 1 of those so far. This kind is a little different than the last one... They told my Mom in May, that she wasn't even a patient that radiation would do any good, and that her chances were pretty much slim. She'll have to have Chemo OFF & ON for the rest of her life, but SO FAR/SO GOOD. She's the only person I know who doesn't get sick with her treatments. I guess with all the prayers, and God on her side, good things can happen.. She's a very strong person with a lot of will, and I think you are just as strong. Stay strong, keep that great mind set, and you'll feel even better. We'll keep you in our thoughts & prayers, and wishing you a speedy recovery...
T.J.: I do not know you and have never met you, but of course I wish you all the best! Keep your head up
TJ Good luck to you TJ. I just finished radiation myself...Stage 1 Breast Cancer..... It´s great to be back home and I am sure you will do fine...what´s in your head is more important that anything they find anything anywhere else. Keep a positive outlook and know that you have people pulling for you! Positive is the only way to look at the outcome. That´s how I got through cancer 40 years ago and that´s how I´m gonna do it this time. Hang in there and the best wishes to a fellow survivor!
TJ....I passed Happy Cake yesterday, and picked something up in your honor. Oh it was sooooo delicious.
Best wishes T.J. on your recovery. Attitude is everything and you have the right attitude to get over and beat the big C! God Speed.
