Update & gripe about forum!

I had to rest my pass word again.  It is really frustrating.  I don't know who or why they changed things.  wish we could just go back to what used to be.

I was so sad about Helen.  She is now at peace.

I am still having a bad time.   Nausua and vomiting every day.  I have been off chemo for 3 1/2 months.  So guess this is the beast.  I have lumps all over the abdomen.  They jump from to the other hurting.  They have upped my pain med to Oxicondin 40 Mg and given me some kind of morphine supplement.  Took me off loritab because of possible liver damage.

I am still just staying in the bed most of the time.  Just tired and have no energy.  Had fluid removed a week ago.  Now they tell me it is starting to form little "sacks" and one incision will not get it.  Hate that, but this ascites has just got to come off.  Hope I can go 3 or 4 weeks this time.

God less all of you.   Yvonne

Dear Yvonne, You are in my thoughts and prayers. Although I joined the forum in Dec., I just recently started going on. I hope that today is a better day for you. All the positive energy and prayers from the group are so helpful. I have 2 guided meditation tapes that I listen to frequently and help me alot. One is by Belaruth Naporstack . I listen to the one called A meditation to help you with chemotherapy . It helps lift me up and gives me energy. The  other is by John Griswald. If you are interested, I could send them to you- although I'm not sure how or I could give you the info where you could get them.
Love, Sherry

Yvonne - I often think about you, and when I do I pray you are feeling well and still fighting as hard as you do. I hate to hear you are still in so much discomfort, I'm going to pray harder. Please keep us updated. With love, Deandra

I'm so sorry that you are feeling so bad, the nausea must be really turning you off food as well as having weight loss. My mother suffered from the nausea a couple of days after each chemo so she had 2 sessions of japanese acupuncture and it really helped, he worked on her digestive system.
The difference between chinese and japanese acupuncture is japanese use much finer needles and stimulate more superficially and gently whereas the chinese use bigger needles and deeper stimulation.
Discuss it with your doctor first though, but it really was the only thing that worked long term for mum, she is stage 4, second occurrence.
You are in my thoughts,
Carolyn

Thanks for posting.....there have been a few of us wondering about you.  The news about Helen was very sad, she will be missed...but it is nice to know that she is smiling down on all of us and giving us strength.

Keep up the fight.

Sending lots of postive thoughts,
Pam

It sounds like you're having a very rough time of it.  Is there anything specifically you'd like me to pray about?  I find I'm able to focus better on what people need when I have something conrete to talk to God about.  I could go with "please heal Yvonne" but I feel it's more personal when I tell God specifics.

If you'd like, send me a note with your prayer requests.

I hope you feel better and see some sunshine through the window.

Hugs,
Morrowville
