takin a break
Hi boys and girls,
Just wanted to let you know I will be taking a little break from the board - I'm way too addicted!
I'm fine, but this new treatment really has me spinning with some of the side effects and I just need to focus on getting back in balance and imagining that Herceptin-dm1 chewing up nasty ca cells.
I figure if I trade my Her2support time for meditation and visualization, I can make yogi in about 2 weeks, melt all the cancer away, and maybe even cure this thing for us all. Flori of course is my inspiration for that...
For the record, nobody offended me, I'm not mad at anyone - I love you all and will continue to think of and pray for you daily. I might lurk a bit - somebody's got to keep an eye on Wild Bill and the Pink one - but will "try" to do it quietly!
Just wanted to let you know so nobody worries. If you need to (cause I just KNOW you can't live without me! LOL) you can email me.
Love to all
C-YA later
Chris
