Hi, I don't even remember the last time I commented. It's been a rough last 6mths. My friend Pat, of whom I've written, passed away in November after a year long battle with pancreatic cancer. Losing her is tough enough but then my dad got sick at the beginning of December and spent the month in hospiatl and passed away on…

It's been awhile since I've written anything. Things are not good for my friend, Pat. She had a really, really bad week last week, after chemo. She had a CT scan on Monday and it showed that her liver is much worse and the cancer has spread to her lungs. The chemo isn't working so she won't be getting it anymore. She's…

Glad that you were able to get out for a run. I'm so sorry that the kids are upset and your mom is still so sick. I think it's a good idea to get some help in - it will give you a break and maybe give you some more time with the kids. I hope that things settle down a bit and wish you all the best. Take care of yourself.

She hardly ate or drank anything for 3 days and when she went to the doctor on Friday, they had to hydrate her and send in a nurse on Sat and Sun to hydrate her. I was unable to take her to her appointment but had another good friend go with her. When they got home, my…

Good for you! Walking inside or outside is very beneficial. My friend with cancer has had quite a few good days now and she's eating again. This is a very good thing, as she had a few weeks where she was barely eating anything, because she didn't feel well. We took the dogs out tonight - the weather has been great for…

I'm glad to be able to get to know all of you as well. My husband also suffers from chronic back pain as well as other ailments and also spends a lot of time sleeping. He is, however, still able to help out with the gardens when he has good days. It can be frustrating when there is so much work to do around the house and…

Hi, My name is Terry Anne and I am a caregiver to my friend who is suffering from pacreatic cancer, with mets to her liver. I take her to all her Dr. and chemo appts, often re-arranging my work schedule to fit them in. The people I work with have been amazing, trading shifts, covering for me and all around support. I woke…

I'm 52 and joined a week ago. Count me in! I've only lost 3lbs since joining, but I also go to weight watchers and have lost a total of 19.8 lbs. There are a few of us from work who are using the site and supporting each other. You're not alone and YOU CAN DO IT!
