,

You do sound better! We will all be thinking of you going back to work,

and hoping for the best. You have said how a lot of us feel sometimes,

and you have managed to fight all these problems and conquered some.

You go !!! (but, always remember to listen to your body, and when

it's telling you it needs a rest...take a rest.

Jen. oh Jen..I am so sorry that you haven't gotten pregnant yet. Years

ago, when I was in remission (for a few years..only didn't know it was

remission..just thought I was over " whatever it was, " ) my hubby and I applied

for adopting a child (we had a small son, and couldn't seem to have another

child ) Actually, we were approved to be foster parents, and then one day

out of the blue..the man handling the legal end of things called and asked

if we would be willing to adopt this little baby that was to be born in about

a month? Of course...we said yes! (the mom wanted it to go to someone

specific, and we filled her qualifications) Two weeks later I found out I was

pregnant myself! (surprise!) We talked with the adoption folks, and they said

" if we wanted the other baby too..it was okay with them. " Wow!! My heart

was bursting with happiness! Then two months into the pregnancy...the Stills

came back (didn't know it was Stills then) I lost my own baby, and had to cancel

adoption on the other one, (which was a little boy)...because of being so

deathly

ill. The disease never left again. Please notify your doctor and tell him/her

how you

are feeling. Hopefully, in a few months you will be able to share with us some

good

news!!

Sue #2,

Just want to tell you that I am very proud of you for taking even a " little "

time for yourself!

Now, please listen to Sue, and everyday..take even a few minutes of " Sue Time. "

Please?

Sue:

Yeaaaa!!! The shoulder surgery is over, you are home and getting better every

day! Are you

still in some pain?? Please keep us updated. So good to hear from you!

Now for all of you and everyone else, please take these words to heart.
