Just wanted to say Thank You to Everyone

Hi, I Just wanted to say Thank You to Everyone!

Having Breast Cancer was a club that no one wants to joins, but here

we are. I'm not excluding other Cancers clubs when I say this.

I've probably learned more from the people on this site thant all

the nurses, and doctors I've been in contact with.

This is a amazing site. Everyone is so warm and caring and I just

wanted to say thank you to all of you.

I've gone throuh all my surgeries and will be starting my Chemo on

Tuesday, even though my breast wound is still quite open and quite

large (due to an infection back in September)

I'll be starting with

FEC 100 which is made up of

Florouracil

then Epriubicin

then Cyclophosphamide

Is FEC 100 as stated above a list of drugs used in the USA?

Then I believe Taxetere

Then Herceptin

And then Radiation

I'm not sure of length of time, I'm just taking it one day at a

time!!

Good luck to everyone. You are all in my prayers..

Louise

Thank you nne, I do feel I need all the prayers I get at this time.

I'm learning so many things that I never wanted to learn about Cancer and

treatments.

And I have to say that I'm learning more about the people around me and the

human race and love that we all share for people around us whom are in need of

support.

I find myself changing too, while I take this journey, I'm more thoughtful of

others around me. I'm more patient and value life a whole lot more.

Hugs to all, you are all Angles here on Earth!!!

Very well said Louise. It is a life changing event as far as I am concerned and

I have learned a lot about human nature also. I noticed, for instance that your

family as always is the best support you get and that there is a definite

silence around you from outsiders. Acquaintances I used to speak with

frequently, often do not even greet me. I've discovered that people do not know

what to say and to forgive them for that. I used to be one of those people, not

contacting persons in sad circumstances, but no more. I will not be a bother,

but I will always say something to them now.

hi all,

i have found that a friend whom i thought was a good friend can not cope with

the fact that have had bc problems, sadly this has put a gap between us, hmm not

sure how i can talk to her now, i decided during my treatment i needed a lot of

rest to have a break from my friend and her problems, and yes the expericnce has

been very life changing, sometimes it is a day at a time , and at the start i

can say sometimes a breath at a time., and a lot of meditation. tc sandy

I was working at the time when I found out I had cancer...I did take a week off

when I had my chemo treatments to rest and girls in the office did not

understand...I was told that I was taking off too much time and making some of

the girls in office work a little harder...Other people said to me glad it is

you and not me ...I could not deal with the cancer and then loosing your mom 4

months after my operation... I was living alone and really did not have that

much support...had someone to take me to the rest of my chemo treatments but

that was all...It is hard sometimes but it has been over 4 yrs now and I take

one day at a time...have a boyfriend but no really close friends...Have one

friend dont talk to her much... Most people say to you you are doing great .

retired and moved to another state in 2004.

Elle I know what you mean, people in my local corner market which would normally

chat with you for 15 minuted when you dropped in to do your shopping, now

actualy avoid me.

And I'm still the happy go lucky person, my personality hasn't changed however

theirs have. And like you say... I can't blame them, I'm sure they are just

afraid of what to say.

One of my girlfriends was the greatest.. She just came out and said... I have

NO IDEA what you are going through but I'm here for you.. if you need me to drop

off a Girly gift box, chocolates, girly movies, bubble bath....

I think I liked her response to my illness the best...

She certainly knew at first not to say.. I'm sorry you are not feeling well,

because I feel fine.

I might not say that next week when I start my Chemo.. but most of the people

around me have been great.

You ladies are the best... I'm truly bless to have found this site so early in

my treatments.

Bless you all, LK

A well know DR here in Canada wrote a book, Dr Marla Shapiro, she stated how

some of her girls friends had arguments with her, stating... how dare Marla not

respond to their emails or return their phone call and that She was rude.

Dr Shapiro says, you're friends will just have to understand that this time IS

ALL ABOUT YOU. You need to take the time to heal and you know when you are up

to visitors or talking on the phone or writing letters... If your girls friends

can't handle at this time, you may need to just say OH WELL and hope that you

can mend the gap between you once you are well again.

I guess some people just are totally freaked out about it. It may be that

they are just so frightened that they might lose us... or it might be hard for

them to see you so sick...

It's hard to tell.... as long as we don't take it personally...

I know when I was going through my divorce.. None of our friends would call

me anymore, I was no longer invited to gatherings.... neither was my EX .. but

it was really sad to lose some really close friends because they felt

uncomfortable about the current situtation..

It seems so juvenile..

Hopefully your friendship will ride out your journey and mend when you are

well again..
