Hiya Thad!

Hope today is a good day! I went out to the S&S Deli for breakfast with my sister and her beau. I ogled the rowing team from GW. Heh.

Ah… cancer. YUCK. A member of my family has it too right now. He did radiation last year and is on drugs that make him very tired also. I have brunch with them every week, listen and try to offer ideas. He gets migraines, night sweats and is often very cold, and they gave him more meds for all that.

I’m so glad you are feeling okay and still have your hair. I am not a vain person, but losing my long dark hair was one of the worst parts of chemo, meant everyone knew I was sick. Ick. Thank goodness I don’t have to offer you my wig. 😉

Do the doctors offer you hope or what? Are you fighting for your life or prepping for the afterlife? I want to know what you’re dealing with… see how I can help. You still deserve smiles from a nice lady!

So sorry to hear your libido is low… it was so wonderful. It is a physical or mental decline? I don’t want to pester you with sexy stuff if it doesn’t appeal. But if your mind would still enjoy stimulation, you know I am here for ya. I can send a breast… or would you rather see food porn? I’ve tried a bunch of new restaurants.

Here’s a fishy joke for you – what do you call a tiny tuna? Microfiche!

Mwah!

Hiya Brett,

Hope you had a good week. And took in any plants you didn’t want frozen! I finally caved in and turned the heat on last night. And put on my long sleeve pjs!

How bout them Red Sox?! World Series, here we go! Hope there’s some good baseball.

I’m thinking about last Friday and smiling. Good food, food fortunes, good times!

Mwah!

Hi Sassie

Some good days, some lousy ones

Here are answers to your questions:
I’ve got stage IV [redacted] cancer. I was diagnosed completely out of the blue. Life since then has been a fog of chaotic thoughts, feelings, emotions, etc. Anger, sorrow, tears, resignation, etc.

Stage IV means it had already spread before it was diagnosed, and so it is inoperable, they tell me. I’m taking hormone therapy, and feeling ok right now. Still have all my hair! Main side-effect is being tired all the time. And, oh, the treatment takes a toll on my libido. Total drag!

Glad to hear from you, if you still want to drop me a note.

Hugs
