Thinking about you, sweetheart! Be strong.

thanks Darbi!!
when all my treatments & surgery are done, I'd love to try to meet (Get another get together going)

Hope things are going well, Emmy. Let me/us know if you have any updates -- or just want to talk.

Hey Em, just thinking of you and what you're going through. You're still in my prayers.

Don't know you that well but I love your posts and my heart goes out to you. <3 <3 <3

vroom, basslake & Justine
thanks,
update: MRI shows no further spread of the cancer, still on cancer meds( Could be why) for 3 months, which is a long time to have cancer in your body, then i do another DNC
in the meantime
i am doing the fretility thing, freezing an embryo, it's a whole other world very interesting( It's VERY VERY VERY expensive & prob will not work, but i have to try
started the shots today, i sware it's like being a nurse, I used to care for kids with diabetes but this is even more complicated!!!!
I will be very moody soon so watch out!
thanks guys, thanks for letting me talk & for the concern')

You have every right to be as moody as you want, Em. YOU GO GIRL! YOU FIGHT THIS THING! GET TOUGH! BE MOODY! VISUALIZE the cancer being EATEN AWAY!

Focus on a positive new beginning! YOU CAN DO IT!

Beat it. Don't let it beat you. It will be ok.

You can be as moody as you like.It's your right and perogative; you're the all and powerful Em. We're rooting for you.

Go em!

Well, actually i meant moody from the shotsi was told it's really bad, I got my 2nd shot today & i feel it, i feel nausous too, wow.
i can't wait till this is over

Remember that, Em. It WILL BE OVER! Each day and each treatment is another day closer to you feeling better. Unfortunately, things seem to get worse before they get better, but THEY DO GET BETTER!

Hugs,

Dear Em -

DebC here. I don't think you really know me, as I don't post often here -- lurk mostly -- post a lot on a couple of other boards. But I often read and enjoy your posts, and when I saw this latest one, I just had to respond.

I was so sorry to hear your news, but very moved by the support offered here and the strength and resolve you are showing.

At 40, you were approaching major decision-time anyway as far as having babies -- but to have that decision taken away from you is devastating. It happened to my sister. But interestingly not from uterine cancer, but instead from Breast cancer. Why? Because the chemotherapy puts the body into early menopause. So ANY type of cancer can take that choice away from you......I am so very, very sorry.

I was DELIGHTED however, to read that you have had the opportunity to freeze an embryo. That's WONDERFUL!! And also that your MRI was so good. Awesome news.

And right now.....rather than thinking about choices that were removed, you must put all your energy and positive thoughts into getting well. Because you WILL get well. My sister did. Others have. I KNOW you will!!

I also know how dreadful this whole thing is -- I was with my sister during one of her chemo treatments. And sure she became moody -- and had every right to in my opinion. I am sending you all kinds of prayers and good thoughts and positive energy. Pretend the whole gang from Backstage Boards is there giving you a hug -- a *virtual* hug, heh-heh.

And Em. I never had the choice. I always wanted a dozen kids, and am not able to have them. It crushed me, and although I have absolutely no regrets in life, that is the toughest knock for some of us to take.

But I am also here to tell you that even if your frozen embryo does not work out, there are worse things than not be able to have kids, no matter how wonderful having them would be.

So....if you ever need to talk, lemme know.

Sending light, love, and laughter,
DebC

Em, I held my breath reading your post about the MRI until I got to the part about it showing no spread. That is wonderful news. Focus on the good things, not the bad and count off the treatments one by one. The glass is half full if you think it is!

Showbiz & Deb,
thank you both!!!!!!!!!
Deb not only do i think i know you from other boards but i THINK ( I could be wrong) did we meet at an HHH event? are you in Calif??
I might be thinking of another Deb but anyway
wow, i'd love to talk more about your post, let me know if it's om to PM or email you
thanks
Em

Hi Em -

YEP !! I'm in California.....(displaced NY'er, heh-heh)

And yes....I was lucky enough to attend ONE HHH event....schedule was screwed up for others.

And Yes....I post QUITE often on SHOWFAX Discussion Board and HHH....so perhaps we DO "know" each other.

So....I'm not sure how to PM on Backstage. Go to either Showfax or HHH, and PM me, and then I'll give you my personal e-mail....'kay?

Hugs,
DebC
