Hey Jim,
Something to read when you get up!
I have Plastic Surgeon appointment on Monday and wondering if this is for 'Makeover'--hmmm, praps not, then Zometa treatment Wednesday, then back to Oncologist on 9th.
Aint life fun? Never a dull moment!!!!
Brenda
LOL Brenda. you are a busy lady it seems . why when I wake up? It's only 9PM here and this guy doesn't need much sleep. Might go to bed at 2 or so or I'll start showiong my age. Thanks for making me smile .
I used to chalk my typing errors up to trying to type to fast !! LOL....Now it is because I GOT MY NAILS DONE !!!!! 1st time in a year !!! My dad gave me a gift cert for xmas...and being I had no SURGERYS on the books ( LOL) I could get them done !!! heheehe , so probably a combination of the two!!!
Shar, how are you going to wash dishes or scrub floors without ruining those pretty nails? LOL
I find that there are just too many keys on this thing to type very well. LOL Gotta blame my typos on something and this is the best excuse I can come up with.
ahh I can still wash dishes, scrub floors, button tiny buttons on the kids clothes..I am used to them
!! Except typing , they are long and hit other keys !!
Shar
psst, Shar, even if you can still do those things with your nails done up, don't announce that too loudly! The nails might come in as a good excuse to get someone else to do the dishes for a few days anyway.........
Does Nelie's message sound like adice? LOL
Dr Ozer office just called. It was a Dr that is going to assist him tomorrow morning. I asked her just waht is it that you are going to do. She said the cancer is back on the left side of my tongue and they will be taking more biopsies and whatever else is needed and make sure that is the only location affected. SURPRISE SURPRISE LOL they were supposed to call me and let me know over the phone. GRRRR no call. My daughter Lori is taking a day off from the Hos[ital she works at and going with me. I asked about going home right after and was told it depends on what happens and how I feel. I just bet you I say I feel great LOL Lori can't take 2 days off and I want her to get home to her kids and job. Barb said she will meet my son halfway if I have to stay so maybe. Have a great day all my friends and hopefully I can be on here tomorrow.
The very best of luck and strength tomorrow Jim--I'll be thinking of you--at least you don't have too much time to get worked-up about it--like that's some consolation????
Take care of yourself Jim, let anyone who is willing to take care of you do so and make sure you come out with plenty of pain meds!
Brenda
Jim,
And, even more good luck. Hope all goes well!
I have enough pain meds in this house to make us all happy and carefree LOL .. too bad I don't take it often enough and sit here and suffer. Hope to post tomorrow nite if they let me out of there.
Jim: We'll be praying for you all day....Please ask someone to post and let us know how you're doing if you don't feel well enough to post yourself...
Lois & Buzz
Jim

Not how any of us wanna start the new year...But get it over with and enjoy the rest of the year !! My heart and thoughts are with you ((((((((((HUGS))))))))

Shar
Jim -- Hang in there buddy. I'll be thinking of you, as will Anne. You are in great hands, and you will definitely KO this thing this time.
we'll be thinking of you Jim. I'm glad you'll have your duaghter with you.
Nelie
Thinking of you Jim and hoping to see you well soon.
Minnie
It's about 5:20 AM and as soon as my daughter arrives here, we will be on our way to Columbus. I just looked st the tep and it's cold 13 is just a little colder than I like by about 60 degrees :LOL Have a good day all and if I'm able I will post an update and if not Barb will post for me.
Will be thinking of you and yours today
Maggie
This is what happened today.. I was taken to the OR and they did biopsies. The wedge type this time. I woke up and was talking to the people in there. I felt great LOL but as they told me then, wait a few minutes and see. Good old pain big time. Dr Ozer wants me to have rad & chemo combined. I think I should have listened to the Radiologist in Wheeling when he said I needed it or it will return. That is the Dr that I am getting lined up to go to. I see him Monday the 7th and see Dr Ozer Jan 28th. I guess sometime the best can be wrong too. I'm too tired right now to keep typing so will see ya all later.
Jim
Glad to see that everything went OK today and sorry to hear that you have to begin treatment, however it is the only way to beat it !! Just know I stand by you all the way ... Oh and it is like -5 here,much colder then I like it !!
Shar
Jim: You CAN do this! You're a tough old bird just like Buzz! God 'don't make 'em like y'all anymore!'...Stay in touch...get some rest, then start your research. We're ALL here for you, buddy!
Lois & Buzz
Lois, I guess us older dogs have to teach the young ones the correct way to chew a bone. Slow and easy. LOL
Glad you were up to typing Jim--certainly plenty of life in the old dog yet!
And plenty on here who will 'walk you' through your treatment.
Still thinking of you,
Brenda
Jim,
I'm so happy to hear your doing well. Treatment will be tough but you'll do fine..........as Lois said, "they don't make them like you anymore" so show the younger crowd how to do it. I am always making that comment about my husband who works harder than any man I know........they just don't make them like him anymore which is why he has such trouble finding good employees, he expects to much.
We'll all be right here with you while you're in treatment Jim, sit back and let us support you.
Love,
Minnie
LOL I wish someone else would have changed my profile,, my daughter called and we were talking while I was updating it..
Great JIm, but just add the year behind the date cause 5 years from now when you're still posting newbies won't think you're a newbie.
Done deal david and thanks for letting me know about the date,, have a great day.
