Thanks dears. Well they said my neck swelled up because I got an allergy to the liquid supplement of all things. Now they want me to eat something called "calories" which is fat in a jar with no taste. I can stir it in milk she said. No thank you! That is the grossest thing I can't even think about it. I will just blend anything and everything into liquid and drink it before I go that route.

Dani I believe so many suffer much more than I do. Mine was caught early and though I am having some pain I know it is not as intense as some I have read about in here. Bless all your brave and courageous hearts. My machine, TG has never broken down. I am in and out in 5 minutes unless I have to see the doc, the nurse or the dietician. Praise the Lord your mother is still here and enjoying life. She is a brave soul.

Gary I totally forgot about asking about the rad doses. I talk so much and carry on we all get to laughing and somebody starts looking for the dict tape to tape me shut. LOL

How true about the terrorists. "Get on that chemo machine you dirty killing dog you and here is a shot of 4000 rads of radiation to your face you snake! That felt good Gary. Maybe I should do that more often. LOL
I try and find something to laugh about everyday no matter what. I watched my late husband draw up into a shell and what it did to me and the kids was a sad tragedy. We went into the pit right along with him and I viwed if I ever got it I would never put my kids throught that again and as yet I have been true to my promise.

Man I talk to much. LOL Bless you and be good to one another,
