  Hi Lindamae, I hope your mouth sores are not keeping you from eating. I've bought the MET Rx from General Nutrition Centers (GNC) that Susan Wales's doctor recommended for her mother. I use a smoothie blender and mix them. They work as replacement meals. This way you can get nutrition without too much effort. I can't manage any more than half the package but at least they seem healthy. I've also used Boost quite a bit. How's the house coming? I look forward to hearing the news! Much love, Janet

  Good morning Lindamae. I am sorry I missed your chat. I was warm on the couch and didn't hear the chat pop ups. We are in Northport that is right close to Port Charlotte. It is really hard to tell where on starts and the other ends. I am so happy for you both and excited to see you. I have been to Punta Gorda and it is so beautiful there. It only takes 15 minutes to get there from where we are at. We are going down on the 24th for 8 days with Craig's youngest son and his wife. Big big hugs! Beth

  Dear Lindamae
  Thanks for your thoughts regarding my situation with my mother, anything is helpful...I`m sending you some chicken soup because you need to get well so you can enjoy your new home in Florida. I think it`s wonderful that you`ve lost the weight that you wanted to, however you can`t compromise your immune system while doing so. Possibly you should begin drinking something multi-calorie so you can get back your strength and fight off all germs and infections.I hope Mac returns home soon so he can help take care of you. Lots of love,
  xxLinda

  Dear Lindamae
  I hope your visit with your Mother goes better than my past few visits with mine have... At 93 my mother continues to find fault with me and bring me to tears each visit. My husband thinks I should stay away because he believes the visits hinder my health. However, she`s my mother so I guess I have to grin and bear it :( Happy weekend!

  Dear Lindamae
  I`m sending lots of good luck your way for you to relay to Mac in his quest for a condo... However, I think that finding a condo should be much easier than the "short sales" he was dealing with. Recently,many of my friends have purchased condos on the East Coast of Florida for very reasonable amounts. One purchase on the Indian River was $65,000 for a 2 bedroom, a purchase in Ft. Lauderdale was $135,000 for a one bedroom. So I guess there are some bargains out there! I had chemo this week, feel fine and have even begun to enjoy my trips to NYC, in all types of weather. They give me a sense of independence. Unfortunately my CA125 increased from 18 to 20. I know this is an insignificant amount, especially since I began at 7500, but I worry that I`m going to become resistant to my 3rd drug :( Have you ever thought about asking if you can change back to Gemzar? I truly have no side effects other than mild nausea, for 24hrs, because I won`t take the anti-nausea drugs. Your grandchildren sound like they`re quite precious, speaking of which...my daughter is due in the beginning of May. I know it`s a bit soon to get overly excited, but it will be my first grandchild, a milestone that I never expected to be around for. I hope Mac finds a condo quickly and hurries home to you. Lots of love,
  xxLinda

  Dear Lindamae
  I`m sending some more sunshine your way to warm things up there...Do you have a date when you`ll be moving, yet? Yesterday I had my Avastin/Gemzar, which remains to be an every other week schedule and currently I`m awaiting my CA 125 test results. I refer to my chemo days as miserable Mondays and terrible Tuesdays because I`m sleep deprived and slightly nauseous. The only thing that makes me feel better is to eat, go figure. That`s why I`m the only DS sister who has gained weight while everyone else is losing it :( How is you big toe and inside of your chewed up cheek? I, too, hope we get to meet someday. Will you be on the East or West Coast of Florida? Lots of love,
  xxLinda

  SO happy to hear the good news about Bess' CT. Good thing she has a baseline now. Now looking forward to good results for the other tests - genetic? Can't remember what you said about that but then it's time for me to go EAT some dinner! Take care, and wishing you many rainbows ahead, Molly B.

  Dear Lindamae
  I`m sending you some chicken soup because I just read your journal and it made me feel like eating some comfort food. This week I don`t have chemo so I feel great. I`ll continue with the every other week schedule until I`ve be told otherwise.At least I have my weekend sailing races that keep me going! Are you still on the Doxil? If so, have all your problems, from it, gone away? Happy condo hunting and enjoy this gorgeous fall weather. Lots of love,

  Hi Lindamae, Well, I'm coming back to life. Last week was pretty rough all the way through Friday. Extreme fatigue and leg pain were my biggest complaints. I'm still tired but, at least feel human again. I've been eating anything with iron in it since my RBCs are below normal. I think it's helping. The next round is October 2 and every three weeks through December 4 if all goes as planned. I'm sending you a virtual chocolate and am hoping that your swallowing issues improve. It is amazing the litany of strange complaints that come with chemo. My husband was kind of surprised when I started telling him how uncomfortable my legs were making me. I hope you housing situation moves along quickly. Much love, Janet
