Eck Posted October 14, 2008 #5 Posted October 14, 2008 Good to hear Don.. Wish you the best. Last week, the lady who I share my office with (and have worked with for years), told me she found out she has breast cancer... Yesterday (Monday) she went in for her operation to have the cancer removed. Her husband called me and said the operation went well and she is in recovery right now.. Then in two to three weeks she begins her chemo treatments.. She turned in a leave of absence last Thursday for 5 to 6 weeks.. Hope all goes well for you and for her...
Iowawegian Posted October 14, 2008 #6 Posted October 14, 2008 Terrific news!! You should treat your self big time! That's a major hurdle get over and you deserve it!!!

Bob Myers Posted October 14, 2008 #8 Posted October 14, 2008 I too fought that battle, in 1980. I was only 25 then so my rebound abilities were much better than they would be now. I did probably as you are doing, chemo and rad at the same time to expedite the treatments. I was off from July 14 until Monday after Thanksgiving with mine, seems like the rad times and chemo times are much shorter today. During this period of time I learned things about myself that I would have never known, like just how much pain and nausea a person can stand, and still stand. But, I know I'm preaching to the choir on that. Congrats, live well knowing that percentages are with you, and every day will be better than yesterday as far as regaining strength and endurance back.

Squidley Posted October 14, 2008 #17 Posted October 14, 2008 Very good news my Friend, looking forward to hearing good things about you
StarFan Posted October 14, 2008 #18 Posted October 14, 2008 Your out in the clear Don. All you have to do is to believe it and your safe. If a dark cloud should ever come over your mind then have the lyrics "Smile" by Charlie Chaplin handy. Has taken my spirits to unexpected heights when loosing faith and hope. A true gem that lyric to say the least. Smile tho' your heart is aching, Smile even tho' it's breaking, When there are clouds in the sky You'll get by, If you smile thro' your fear and sorrow, Smile and maybe tomorrow, You'll see the sun come shin-ing thro' for you Light up your face with gladness, Hide ev-'ry trace of sadness, Al -'tho a tear may be ever so near, That's the time, You must keep on trying, Smile, what's the use of crying, You'll find that life is still worth-while, If you just smile,
