This is just great news. I think of you so much and
all you have been through as many have. I wish you
the best and send my healing thoughts your way for
complete shrinkage of those nodes.

Dear Sheila,
Yes! what a good news!
Keep it coming....

Hugs,

Go, Sheila. Congratulations. If only a side effect were "shrinkage" of the hips and thighs. Sigh.

Hi Sheila
I just can't tell you how happy I am to hear your news. It has really cheered me up before my taxotere tomorrow!
Love Ellie

Sheila -- I am so happy for your good scan news. Navelbine to the rescue....let it keep doing its great work for more and more shrinkage.

Shelia, That is wonderful news! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers that those stubborn neck nodes disappear too. I can remember all to well how excited I was when I saw hair on my head...I was doing the happy dance. I'll be looking forward to more good news from you.

(MJO...I laughed when I read your comment...that would be a NICE side affect...but no such luck.) lol

Sheila I always thought you were distinguished...or rather that you distinguished yourself...


I also am thrilled abour your shrinkage!

Even George Costanza would be happy about it.

Fantastico! Good work Sheila... I am sooooo happy!!

And hair is a wonderful thing, even if you have funny little radiation bald spots like me. Luckily there are only 2 and they are right under the occipital bone, and for the most part my hair covers them. I can't see them, so they don't really bother me, but I've taken to drawing eyeballs on them with a sharpie just to freak out people who might be behind in line at the store...

YEA SHEILA!!!!!

Pesky nodes in the neck,

Thanks to all for your wonderful thoughts and words of wisdom....all of you are probably the BEST medicine for me....you keep me on the positive track in this battle. I am guest speaker for survivors this Sunday to honor my friend Dede who lost her battle 1 year ago...she would have been 50....her wish was to find a cure, we are carrying her dream into battle for all!

Re: I Have Shrinkage!!!!
 

Sheila,

Wonderful news about the major shrinkage. Yes!! And being able to tolerate the Navelbine well is a real plus too.

Perhaps it takes longer for the neck nodes to react to the treatment, especially since it's working well on the chest nodes.

Hi Sheila,

That is such great news! I wanted to tell you that I LOVE your new picture. I would say that your hair looks very trendy to me. That is how I would describe it.

You are amazing.

Love, Hope, Peace,

Congratulations on the shrinkage---------and the hair.
Keep going !!!!! The Navelbine is pretty good stuff.
A little hair story. The senior medical assistant in my docs office was complaining about the color of her hair. I just looked at her and said, "Be thankful you have hair. Alot of people around here don't have any !!!!! " That stopped the complaints.

Re: I Have Shrinkage!!!!
 

Wonderful news Shelia. So, so happy for you!!

Re: I Have Shrinkage!!!!
 

AWESOME Sheila!!! May your news just keep getting better and better!
