Thinking of you Frenchie!! I sure hope that you and your brother are off on a tour somewhere together now that the nicer weather has arrived.

Ugh!!!!! Not really thrilled about how this ended. I won't say, just in case you PVRd it. Not so sure about the judges line up for next year either. They are bringing Miley back and Jennifer Hudson. Apparently the ratings were not there this season so they are changing it up!

I am so very, very sorry to read of this tragic news. My daughter attempted suicide 3 years ago and still deals with the anxiety and depression that took her to that dark place. I cannot begin to imagine what you are going through, but thank you so much for sharing with all of us while you are hurti...

We finally have some beautiful weather here for you to enjoy!! It's been a crappy spring so far, but hopefully winter is officially gone now, NO MORE SNOW!!!! Think of you often my Albertan friend!!

We had my dad drinking one or two boosts or ensures a day to keep up with his calories. I am not sure what you call it in the USA. When my daughter some dental surgery, she was supposed to drink them as well, but she hated the taste, so we mixed it with ice cream for a shake. Maybe something like th...

I agree, Brennley was my fav!! She is so sweet and innocent, I think that adds to that powerful voice!

My dads only symptom of cancer was diarrhea. He did not have any other pain or weakness when this all started. Its hard to tell if his treatments helped the diarrhea, because the chemo he was on caused more. He actually did extremely well with his chemo. It was just since this past July that he star...

So sorry you have had to find your way to this board, but that being said, you have come to the right place! There is a wealth of information and support to be found here. I hope your moms visit with the oncologist went ok on Thursday. From my experience with my dad, we felt like we were in a whirl ...

So sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences to you and your family. So glad to hear that your dad was able to live his life to the fullest up to the end.

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my father in January. He was bit younger than your mother. He had cancer in his liver, lungs and colon. He was on chemo for almost 2.5 years. He developed a bladder infection in November and never really recovered from it. His issues were NOT directly cancer relat...

So sorry you had to come here, but as mentioned, you are in the right place for information! My father was 79 when he was diagnosed with stage iv colon cancer. He had liver and lung involvement. As I have mentioned here before, the oncologist before meeting him had a plan to go mild with the chemo, ...

I am sure finding that my grief is nothing like I expected it would be. My mom has really struggled since dad passed away. One of us slept with her every night for the first two weeks then she said the nightmares stopped so she could manage, but she has not been alone yet. Her sisters came to stay t...

I am so sorry that things have gotten to this point for your mom and yourself. CRGuy has given you very good words! Nothing can prepare you for what is coming next. I honestly thought that I was prepared. I can tell you that you will find the strength that you need to be there and do your best for y...

I just wanted to thank everyone for their condolences and kind words. It is nice to have this family to turn to in our time of need, even though our common bond sucks!!!!

My deepest condolences to you and your family.
