Saturday, 28 June 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
Sometimes when you meet someone you instantly click. Maybe you can’t put your finger on why you like them but just know that a spark is there. Other times, you meet someone who seems to rub you wrong and you may not even know why, you just don&

the down side

Tuesday, 10 June 2008 12:06 P GMT-06
The down side, there’s always a down side isn’t there? How would you label me? Upbeat? Full of life? Crazy at times? Would you believe depressed sometimes? I spent a day writing the history of my depression to eventually share but still h

Every Sunday I anxiously read PostSecret.  They update the blog on Sundays and the post is only there for a week and then it's changed.  SO I really should have told you about this sooner but it has weighed on my mind all week and

Cancer Care Rant

Tuesday, 11 March 2008 2:14 A GMT-06
I’m not sure if the reason I am sitting here at 3 am unable to sleep is because of the time change or because this crap is piled up in my mind but, I’m going to take a chance that it’s crap and spill my guts. (Was that a long enough

home from the oncologist's

Tuesday, 15 January 2008 7:10 P GMT-06
Dr Onc said he did not feel any masses or lumps and he couldn’t explain the swelling. He left it up to me if I want to wait and watch until March, when I go for my next scheduled check-up, or if I want to have a Chest CT scan now. Since that no

Slapped by reality

I know I talk about “the cancer” quite a bit here but I’m allowed, no? It’s not something that comes up a lot out IRL (thanx Willowtree for the explanation (in real life), see how quick I am to learn). All of our friends know

I didn't mean to leave anyone hanging.  I called the oncologist on Friday and he was out until Tuesday.  the nurse, of course, could not tell me anything and she said he won't either on the phone.  She says I will have to wait

Needle biopsy done - check

Wednesday, 1 August 2007 3:14 P GMT-06
I had to be at the hospital by 7:30 this morning and since it's a 45 minute drive that meant getting up really early.  When they called to set up the biopsy yesterday was the first time I heard the area called a lymph node.  We were und

Label me irked!  I received the following comments to my Oncologist Appointment entry and they have me in a very negative mood.  I figure everyone is entitled to their own opinion and I'm a lover not a fighter so I generally ignore any

The Power of Positive Thinking

Wednesday, 29 March 2006 10:35 P GMT-06
While I was in one of my lowest moments and riding in the car with Dennis I jotted some thoughts on a napkin. I’m more up now so I don’t know if I can truly get across the deep feelings I felt when I scribbled on the napkin but I want to
