    Ruth,

    I work at a Breast Care Center, but the ovarian cancer patients get their treatment in our infusion area......hang tough, Ruth. I have met a lot of women, who I suspect are getting treatment similar to yours......make sure you let your doctor and nurses know all about ANY side effects you are experiencing. There are lots of medicines to help with those nasty side effects. I know plenty of women with ovarian cancer (with mets) who have been fighting the good fight for many years....don't give up!!!!

    I am sending good, positive healing thoughts your way!!!!

    Toni

    Ruth, you sound like one fiesty and tough cookie! Keep up the good fight- it's one that only you can fight, but one that we are all here cheering you on for. We're behind you all the way! When you're getting treatments, and you're feeling badly, we're the silhouettes and shadows in the corner whispering shouts of cheer, encouragement and love. We love ya!
    Go, girl, go!!!!
    Cancer is a terrible, disgusting, evil, and microscopic bottom feeder that has no place in such a strong, tough, wonderful, sweet woman such as you! Kick it to the curb!



    By the way, my mom, who is battling breast cancer, sends her love. She says she knows of the pain you are feeling (of sorts). She sends her well wishes and healing vibes. Stay strong, and stay positive! You're a fighter!

    Sending best wishes to Ruth. Same name as my grandmother, by the way, who in spite of a bout with skin cancer lived to be either 3 months short of 100 or 9 months over, depending on which birthdate one believed.

    Now if the well wishes of bike-riding lady strangers isn't enough to get your spirits up, we also have a humor forum. Long as you're on line, why not go there and browse for laughs? http://forums.teamestrogen.com/forumdisplay.php?f=44
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Hang on, Ruth! You're going to beat this thing hands down! I'm sending lots of good positive vibes your way and surrounding you in butterflies. Let their wings beat all the negative energy away from you, and strengthen your positivity tenfold!

    Hugs and butterflies,
    ~T~
    The butterflies are within you.
