I have cancer....the road to recovery

[gini]

With all of this talk about "hospital hunks" maybe Slick needs a lace gown - in say "pink" with a feather boa around the neck...something she could twirl at the really cute ones.

(I would leave the nose and glasses along with the cat tail - at home)

And something tells me that she can't possibly handle them all - maybe I should go up there and help her!

xxoo to you sweet friend.

Stay strong Slick- you'll get through this! I'll be keeping you in my thoughts (((((HUGS)))))

Slick, do you need an extra "hand" with those men? Cause, ya know, I hear Gini has one in her freezer ....

Thinking of ya!

Hey Gini, I wouldn't want you to get lonely on the trip there so I'll make the sacrifice and go with you to "help".....

Those moist wipes are great. I keep some in my car and have used them more than once. They do a really good job when a shower isn't handy, to at least freshen up.

Slick,

I am so sorry that I am just now replying to this thread. I have read through everyone's posts (that took some time!) and I know that with all the prayers and good wishes you will come through this. Please know that there are many prayers and well wishes coming your way from Indiana!

My Mother is a colon cancer survivor! She was diagnosed in 1991, and after a sir jury ( she has a colostomy which she calls "junior") and radiation, she is cancer free! My Dad is battling prostrate cancer now, but his prognosis is very good! It is just amazing to me how far and advanced medical technology has come!

You have a great atitude, and that is one of the keys to your recovery! I will keep you in my prayers!

you are my hero!

RobiLee, I'm no hero. I'm just trying to deal with this the best I can....just like you did.

You are my idol!!!!!

Logan, that's very nice of you to say, but really Simon would kick me off the stage.....

I'm nobody special. I'm just like all of you trying to make my way in world and hoping to make a difference along the way.

Kelly, thanks for your list.
Stace, thanks for the links. Only trouble is I have to go downtown to get those items so I'll have to psych myself up to do that. I only go down there when and if necessary.

Zipster, thanks for the belly laugh.

I sent out a global email today to all 150 of my coworkers.....90+ in my building and the rest spread throughout BC and Yukon. It's funny that the people I deal with very infrequently were the ones who showed up on my doorstep and offered support. Never got any reaction from 3 people in my own department....not that it really matters. I just wanted it out in the open. I will now become part of the CCS's Cancer Connection program and will be matched with a volunteer who had the same type of tumour and the same type of surgery and I'm really looking forward to that.

I admit that at this moment I'm getting a little impatient. I just want this done and overwith so I can plan my next trip to a PT meeting.

{{{hugs}}} to you all.
xoxoxo

Slick i have to disagree with you on your comment "I'm nobody special" oh yes you are to everyone here on PT and many other people that I am sure of, I also admire your spunk,and dutch courage, I only wish I had even half of it, you will beat this girl , you really will, thinking of you and hoping for a very positive outcome, remember we are all here for you anytime, you need a pick me up, a friendly chat, or a hug.

[dukedogsmom]

Slick, that's great news about the volunteer. That will be a big help, I'm sure. Just checking in here to see how you're doing. I know you want it over with and we do, too. I hope it's a success and that you'll feel even better than before.
