Hi Guys! I really haven't posted very much since being a member, but have valued the insight and compassion of the members on the forum. I find myself ending 2017 being somewhat discouraged, but trying to regain my fighting spirit. As you can tell from my signature, I had my 12th round of Folfox on ...

Just wanted you to know we're thinking of you Beansmama and hope your recovery is continuing O.K..

I'm sorry you have to deal with all this. As mentioned earlier, I would check with the social worker at the treatment center (if they have one). You can also check with the hospitals Financial Department as most have financial assistance programs (at least in the U.S.). If you are U.S. based, a lot ...

Let the healing be quick and uneventful. Glad to hear you're doing well!

Congrats! I hope lots of us can say the same in a few years.

Keep getting better day by day! And I agree, our pets are a good lap warmer on chilly days.
Hope you have nothing but positive news Tuesday!

So glad to hear you're home. Stay on the mend!

I can't imagine the emotional pain your family has endured throughout the year. Positive thoughts for you and DH for good health going forward. Hopefully each passing day will brighten a little more as you remember the family fun times that have been shared.

FANTASTIC!!! I've been saying a prayer every night since surgery for you BM. I look forward to your post some day soon!

Sorry you have this added stress, but hang in there. I am 4 months out from my right hemicolectomy and at various times have also experienced dull and sharp pains on the right side. They would come and go and I never can connect to a specific cause (food, day in chemo cycle etc.) ONC and surgeon bot...

Positive thoughts for a quick recovery!

Fantastic! I'm still new to this long journey, but really love hearing such positive news.
Continued good health and go celebrate!!!

I had my port installed a day before my first Folfox treatment so I can't comment on not having it. I can say I'm very glad I have it. It is on my upper right chest and sticks out a little, but does not interfere with anything I try to do. I think it makes the days with the pump easier as my arm is ...

I have colon cancer and am on FOLFOX only (cycle 6 of 12 started today), but noticed a somewhat similar occurrence. I did call my ONC and as my next appt. with the PA ONC was a few days away, we spoke more about it then. She believes it's a fissure and will keep an eye on it. Mine first started afte...

It's time to kick Larry to the curb! Good luck and you'll be in my prayers.
