Re: Cancer 'n Me
Flori,
I am sorry I did not respond last night, but I just had to digest it a bit. Well, it really is a shit-storm isn't it? Still, the brain "flair" feels "wrong" for some reason. Thinking it is probably BS. The other weird manifestations can be cancer-related or cancer-jangling-the-hell-out-of-my-last-nerve-thank-you-very-freakin'-much!!!! I fall in the latter camp and would be equally freaked out and utterly exhausted from the battle to get another chance to fight another round with SOMETHING! Don't these docs know you have "just begun to fight!?????"
I cannot fully comprehend.
Flori, I love your honesty, valor, wry wit and steadfast love of life. I will pray you get your treatment plan and your man (that you can STAND). You deserve another whack at that sneaky foe. Please, please keep us posted.
