    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.

    Ruth, hang in there and stay tenacious. I hope you bounce back quick after your coming treatments. Prayers and hugs.

    I have sympathetic nausea reading this!

    I have had chemo and it is hell. Especially as you get cumulatively weaker over the course of the treatment. Take care and keep yourself in good enough shape to continue to receive the treatments.

    Every living thing has one purpose - to keep living. Us too. We must just keep fighting to live. Whatever.

    All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

    My maternal grandmother was American, and called Ruth too! And she was a lot like you, I think, small and feisty, stubborn and very funny, behind her outwardly sweetandkind housewife persona.

    I'm cheering you on, and I'll bet "my" Ruth is too!

    Dont have any practical advice to add, but hang in there Ruth! And when you have the energy, read TE posts.... some are funny, some are sad, some are just fascinating... they are never dull and they might help take your mind of the nausea for 1/2 hour or so.

    sending you lots of good vibes, from me and the dog (who wishes she was there to make you feel better cos she just loves being around people )
