I haven't seen Kathy all week. It doesn't have anything to do with how she's feeling. Just that our schedules never meshed. So, can't give you an update. But I do have more funnies for your weekend. Click here to see Dan Reynold's Healthcare Cartoons. These cartoons cover all aspects of healthcare. Even pet healthcare.
Laugh More, Live Better!

...I'm sure Kathy and her family could use some humor!
Here's a tip for when you are cranky, feeling like crap, bored of feeling like crap, tired, grouchy from being tired, nauseated, f-ing tired of being nauseated etc. Google! It is amazing what you can find when you put "!@#$%& cancer" into Google images! (P.S. This is for old people only. Kids should not do this. Teenagers should not do this, but probably have done it already without me telling them!)
This poster, entitled "Love Boobs, Hate Cancer," was done as a fundraiser at another blog. What do you say blog readers? Should we make one of these???? They raised over $4000. Ha ha ha!!
I am borrowing it here since their fundraiser is over. In the spirit of the poster, though...
Do you love boobs and HATE cancer? Then make a donation to the American Cancer Society or start saving for our Relay for Life fundraisers. Got pennies????

Is it the Kemo...

...or is it Us?
I got an update from Kathy just before the weekend and I thought I would share some of what was in the email.
The doctor told me yesterday that she could hardly feel the tumor, to which I replied, "So, we're done here?" To which she replied, "Uh, no!"
Thursday was my last "poison" treatment," and I'm not looking forward to the next couple of weeks of being sick, but I am encouraged by the reports of how much easier the next drug regimen is. And, I'm half-way done with my kemo!
It still seems as if I have such a long way to go, and I tried to give myself the same advice I give to students when they talk about how long it'll take to get a certificate or degree: "It's OK, you'll get there--break it into chunks (baby steps)--you'll be surprised at how quickly the time goes."
What a load of crap! Well, not really, but it's hard to take your own advice!
So is it the Kemo, or is it Us? I vote that we call it the combination of the treatment, Kathy's personal and family strength, and the energy we are all creating! Whatever it is, let's keep it working!!!!! When the strength of one of those things starts to flag, the others are there to take over the heavy lifting. Keep the comments coming, too. Kathy and her family really appreciate hearing from all of you out there. (255 visits to the blog as of this morning!)

Anyway, thanks to everyone for helping me shrink those little !@#$%&ers with your positive thoughts and actions.
