    • High Five

      From JackieG054 November 12

      Sounds like things are going well for you!! I'm glad you are going back to work that was a mistake I made...I should have gone back. I didn't and I found that too much time on my hands gave me too much time to think and I started feeling anxious. It's behind me now and I am feeling good. Actually have lost 10lbs by walking on the treadmill and cutting down on portion sizes.
      Happy Thanksgiving!!

      Jane! I'm glad you're doing well! If I were you I would stay at work for awhile anyway....I found that after my treatments ended I had my son's wedding to plan which kept me busy. But then I had a really "down" time after that was all over. Kind of like a post-traumatic stress situation! I think being back at work would have helped me but I didn't feel up to it physically yet. Working makes you feel more normal again and being with people helps. Like you said you can only clean and cook so long without feeling the need to be back in the workplace! Hope you continue to do well!
      My family and I are all doing well thanks! We just celebrated Thanksgiving...ours is over a month earlier than yours!
      Keep in touch!

    • Miss You

      From JackieG054 October 16

      Hi Jane!
      I check in here occasionally but haven't seen you on for awhile! How are you? Are you keeping busy? Just wanted to let you know that I'm thinking about you!

    • Chocolate

      From DodiAllen September 23

      Hi Jane
      I am sending you a virtual chocolate... no calories. :-)
      Just wanted to keep in touch... haven't heard from you in a bit. You are probably gallivanting, enjoying your freedom from treatments....... take care
      Think of you often
