Christine,
Hi, and Welcome! I only found this site Saturday nite, the 19th. If only I had found it earlier. I had surgery last August, followed by 6wks radiation beginning Sept. 10 thru Oct. 19... so I'm only about 3 mos. post rad. I've just begun to take soups and things myself, but it has seemed like forever. If you're even half as excited as I was to find this site, I know where you are coming from. Lots of good info and excellent input here... lots of sincere, caring people... and I've only been on here for about two days. Frustration and impatience have been two of my most prevalent weaknesses as well. Impatience makes us want more, and that desire for more causes frustration and more frustration when things don't work the way we expected. Be patient, take it one hour at the time if necessary, but above all, remember there are people out there who know and understand what you are going through. You are not in this alone. Take care, Godspeed, and for heaven's sake... keep in touch!
John
