Wheetsin 714 Posted September 18, 2008 I've had a bit of an LBT sabbatical, but I want to know how you're doing. Figure you're most likely to check here, that I know of! How about the rest of the old RnR crew? Different flavor here now. Anyone still around? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

green 6 Posted September 21, 2008 Hi, Wheets. I haven't been posting much since I was diagnosed with cancer of the right larynx. The treatments have really been knocking me out. I am now, they believe, (there is one scan still pending) cancer free but the chemo and the radiation have left me exhausted and bald. I will say one thing, cancer is very slimming. I now weigh an anorexic 109.8 lbs and that is with a defilled band. I have enough spare skin that I could repave a whole family of burn victims. In fact, undressed I kinda look like a Sharpei. This is very weird for me. I have never ever been skinny! Of course, I have never been bald, either. BJean is still around but the rest of the old gang seem to have dropped off the site. I miss 'em. I have missed you. How is the pregnancy coming along? Feel free to give me a PM if you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Love:grouphug: Elena Actually I have just finished up with the chemo. It is likely that I am cancer free. Certainly my tumor is gone and it was a biggie. I will be getting a full body scan next month just to ensure that it hasn't spread anywhere else but this is unlikely since there was no sign of spreading when I first began my treatments. Now I just have to recover from the cancer cure - the radiation and the chemotherapy. Both types of treatment are extremely hard on the body as they are extremely toxic; of course they have to be in order to kill off the cancerous cells. I am gaining an appetite and weight, though. I never thought that that would be a good thing. LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
