Cancer Survivors

Let me add my best wishes to those of the other posters here.Get well soon!

Thanks Perdition, we'll keep telling those cells that resistance is futile ... resistance is futile ...

RAZD,My thoughts are with you my friend!

Praying for you RAZD.

Keep your eye on the prize (the one good eye).You're a great inspiration to me.Edited by CosmicChimp, : No reason given.

Good luck, dude. Your positive attitude is inspiring. I don't know that I could do the same under those conditions. You're a better man than most, or at least me. But you knew that. - Oni

Hi Razd,I've grown accustomed to your scientifically detailed and entertaining posts. Here's wishing you stay healthy to post another 13265 (and more). d

Hi RAZD,
Very sorry to hear the news. You seem to be in the fighting mood and that's good.I know the feeling, diagnosed in 1979, back in 81, 82 and 83 and free since.I am praying for you.Shadow 71

Hi Razd.I hope this new drug combo works wonders on you.

Hi ramoss,Thanks, I'll print your avatar and hang it up in the infusion room to encourage the troops.Enjoy.

Hi, RAZD.You've already heard from so many people here, I don't know what I can add. But, good luck to you!Edited by Blue Jay, : No reason given.

Hi RAZD,I'm late to the party, catching up on my reading I guess. Anyway, all the best of luck and good fortune to you!--Percy

Good luck with the treatment; my earnest hope is that it works for you.I think this is from the author's personal experience.

Attitude is huge! Nutrition is also big, as you well know. It seems odd, yet it seems as if you the patient are encouraging all of us even more than we are encouraging you. I am honored to have an online friend such as you to talk with. (though we dont talk all that much! )There are so many unfinished arguments in life and so many people whom we are blessed to meet that we have not yet met.Heaven Can Wait.

Hi Crashfrog, thanks (and thanks to everyone else too) Yes, he's had several very direct cartoons on cancer that imply this.As far as this goes, I've had my port put in, a small subcutanous device that makes hooking up the IV much simpler and less invasive, plus safer (considering that many of these drugs can be toxic to skin).I had my first round last Tuesday. Wednesday was sort of okay, although I was tired. TFS and today I have been plagued with semi-nausea and some aches in the area of my kidneys (they could be under strain if a lot of cells are dying, so it's a mixed message).The next treatment is next Tuesday, and I will take the opportunity to see about pain medication and anti-nausea pills.All this and income tax Enjoy.
