Dearest Janice,

You are NOT alone, not only is the Father with you, but so are all of us with you in our prayers. I hope you can close your eyes and feel our presence in your heart. :)

I'll be busy killing asking God to GET those bad cells so the treatments be like cancer killing terrorists! You just lay there and allow the battle to rage in your defense!!! :D
All my love,
Anna Marta

Good luck, you're in my prayers, ((((((((Janice)))))))). My mother-in-law made a joke during her light chemo, saying that she had planned to lose weight, but not in exactly that way. At least you can enjoy a new figure afterwards. :( :o :p :D

I hate to tell you this but you dont neccessarily loose weight from chemo. Im not hassling you but I thought maybe you guys should know the truth about it. Chemo is steroids and some people actually blow up like a blow fish. I only lost maybe ten pounds for over six months and thats including a staff infection of mighty proportions. I never ate anything except during the last few times I did enjoy my sisters chicken salad she brought to us. I literally could not eat anything for days and days.
Of course that was me everyone reacts differently. I thought I would be glad because I would loose weight at least but no such luck.
My cousin, a male, gained a lot of weight.
Every chemo is different. There are different treatments for different types of cancer so I dont really know anything about Tim's treatment or Janice's. Most people get sleepy I didnt I reacted exactly the opposite and couldnt sleep for two days solid then be exhausted and slept most of the rest of the week.

Extremely weak except for the times my treatment would be adminstered. I didnt loose much hair but most people loose all of their hair everywhere, eyebrows and all. My chemo was not supposed to make me sick so they said but I got very sick instead of the hair going.

The most amazing thing about cancer that I learned was there are many many people that live with it a long long long time. They are some of the most heroic people I have ever known in my life. So huge to me that I was speachless that God could make these people into the giants that they were.

Cancer changed my life so much for the better I cant tell you how absolutely changed on the inside i was. I wish I could be that way again. I literally didnt care what anyone thought about anything. I enjoyed my life like I used to do when I was a little girl. I got back into nature and soaked up living as much as I could. The sky looked different the grass was greener everything in my life was better not on the outside of it but on the inside of me.

I for sure never want to go back through it not one bit but God showed me that He loves this place this earth and I should love it too.
Then came that dumb SA...........what was I doing?????????????????? Why did I let it become that huge to me? Truth is Id be back in church right now if it werent for my husband. Theres no way I can get involved right now.

Im so sorry I am taking up time here and Janice needs us all. I love you Janice and I know this is not going to be a picnic but we are all here pulling for you every step of the way, all of the way through, remember we are here, praying, hoping, never letting go.

Best advice i have is to go to a support group. They are absolutely wonderful, for information especially, which you will always need. Are you in one Janice? Maybe even if there isnt one maybe at least online.....theres got to be help there. I found out so much about my particular type of chemo everything the best advice ever. I didnt want to stay in one because it felt like cancer forever you know? But now I miss it.
