That is intersting Joystik! |
|
|
Funny thing is my sensitive parts are on my left side, not my right! I had pre-decay evident before chemo along my gumlines, and was given fancy pastes to soak the teeth in (I have teeth moulds) and muth rinses etc etc and used them about a dozens times through the whole chemo period (supposed to be like every second day LOL). So its my own fault! I just felt so lousy I didn't feel at all like having that tooth paste swilling around in my mouth, was worried it would make me throw up! Will be paying the price on Tuesday! soniat-d (153 ) 1:53 pm, 3 Aug

What you up to Paula??? Bogged in to heaps |
|

of boring old school work with Josh I suppose....nah just joking. I know you are a busy wee thing over there on the farm. Any babies yet??

Oh to answer your hair loss question Joystik |
|
|
Lucky you! No I lost pretty much all of mine everywhere! Armpits still hair free (yay!) rest is back except maybe eyelashes, the new lashes (I lost them all) are still too short to do much with, so eyeliner is still my best friend ;o) Eyebrows coming back well. I was totally bald on head by third chemo I'm pretty sure. But then I did do that parcel tape thing LOL soniat-d (153 ) 1:57 pm, 3 Aug

And its so expensive. I had part of an amalgam |
|
|
filling fall out in my diner a couple of weeks ago so went in to have it fixed last week. He repaired it with white composite stuff, and it looks and feels great. I was in the chair a total of 10 minutes probably, and he didnt check anything else, and cost $140.00 Good hourly rate aye. You teeth look lovely in your pics. Mine are awful, quite close together so I have that decay round the edges, which has been filled and replaced many times. I will have to do something more permanent some time I guess....

1507. |

OK sorry everyone I've missed |
|

HAVE to go do stuff, gotta collect Lydia in 40 mins... bye for now :o) soniat-d (153 ) 1:58 pm, 3 Aug

I had to cut about 2 inches off my hair all over |
|
|
couple of days ago, and its still probably about 1 - 2 inches long, whats left of it. I probably have a 20% coverage, and its growing still, because I notices it was longer than the wig at the back, hence the hair cut! Underarms need wax or roundup! Legs need shaving but I have just kept waiting for it to go voluntarily! And No Brazilian for me ladies.....well not yet!! Right, I'm off for a bike ride.....see you again soon...
|
|
|
1509. |
|
Yeah I had Dentists dream teeth for years |
|
|
(they used to go WOW when I opened my mouth and asked what I did to keep them so good LOL) Then one day... think it was around the time I got pregnant actually, teeth started breaking down a bit, got a few fillings (the expensive white kind) and then just before chemo - yikes! Yep my teeth look pretty good, but a few off them are really rough and porous now down the sides, feel terrible... I'm doing the paste thing every day now, but think its too late! soniat-d (153 ) 2:01 pm, 3 Aug

How strong a dose of chemo are you having |
|
|
Joystik? Any possibility of increasing it, given you're tolerating it so well? Hey, everyone is so different, my hair fell out with the AC, grew back with the Taxotere.... I met women who had the exact opposite! So I wouldn't worry - just enjoy! (The head hair I mean LOL) I actually miss my brizilian, that was fun :o) soniat-d (153 ) 2:06 pm, 3 Aug

Hi everyone |
|
|
Joshi did some school work this morning but I didnt push it he looks terrible. I put a photo on his website, I think its tiredness a lot of it. Josh is having a bit of trouble withhis teeth - will have to get him seen to soon I think. Just bought the girls back to our farm now so its count down till the bubbas start coming. Then I will be awol from here. We keep crossing things off like thats the last time well be doing that. 10 months will fly. Actually going to look at a property in Wyndham tomorrow. Sonia you are good about getting your body sorted. Teeth, Back , Eyes - thats great. How many sleeps till you head away???

Hi Joystik |
|

Bit of a gloomy day - enjoy your bike ride. HUh you could of ridden faster if you'd had a brazilian... ;o)
|

BBBBBOOOOOGGGGGEEEEEYYYYi |

i am here, we are good ryans good hes telling me he wants a trumpet ice cream so looks like i will be going for a walk.
|
|
|
1516. |
|
Hey Bogeyi |
|
|
That's great that he feels like icecream :o) soniat-d (153 ) 3:48 pm, 3 Aug

1517. |
|
Hi bogeyi |
|
|
Yummm - thats good news, hope your legs arent too achey tonight. Give Ryan our love, Josh has been asking me about him all day. Love to you all
|
|
|
1518. |
|
Sonia, I am having the maximum dose of FEC |
|
|
that I can have for my weight and height. I'm sure its the supplements that have knocked the side effects back so hard.
|
|
|
1519. |
|
Glad the lump is small today. Do you think you |
|
|
are feeling it in different positions, therefore making it feel bigger sometimes and smaller other times?? I only hope one day you go to feel it and it has gone completely. I cant feel anything at all along my scar lines. The cancer side is much more raised than the other side, but I wonder if thats to do with the Lymph nodes being removed?
|
|
|
1520. |
|
Bogeyi, Ryan mist be feeling ok then to be asking |
|
|
for Ice cream. I got so sick of ice cream in the hospital. Dont think I'm really an ice cream sort of a gal! But, just love their jelly. When I was on free fluids, I got 3 different colours of jelly for one meal....almost like christmas. Their jelly has such a lovely strong flavour. I'm so pleased for you that things are going ok. Been thinking of you lots Bogeyi.....
|
|
|
1521. |
|
Sonia |
|
|
I am glad the lumps are smaller again today too. I just have to share this with you - Josh and I were just checking out his website and I showed him that 891 visitors had been to it an I said oooohhhh look nearly 900 hun, he said OOOHHHH ANOTHER HUNDY!!! I just thought it was so cute. Made me think of you. xoxoxoxo
|
|
|
1522. |
|
Gee Paula, 10 months is no time is it? Hope |
|
|
you enjoy looking at your farm in Wyndham tomorrow, and hopefully it will be a nice sunny day too. How big is it?? Got a nice Home on it too?? Will be looking forward to hearing all about it after you have been. I have been keeping my ear to the ground out here for you too but nothing really concrete at the moment. Dont make that poor boy do too much homework will you. Tell you what, send it to me and I will do it and send it back to the school. ha ha ha.....
|
|
|
1523. |
|
Joystik |
|
|
No I dont push him. I only get him to do a bit when he is feeling up to it. Today he wanted to do a wee bit but tomorrow he wont do any. School have only sent home some cool sheets they are working on to make Josh feel included which is wonderful. We do it together anyway. So not a strain on him. Looking forward to seeing the farm tomorrow, 100 acres I think??? Tell u more when I can xo

|
|
|
1530. |
|
Golly! Its quiet tonight! |
|
|
Just got back from Lydia's parent-teacher interview. She's doing very well, ahead of her age skill-wise, well behaved, super polite etc. She is over-sensitive and unsure friends-wise, lacks confidence. All things we knew... she's just sensitive to whats going on with me and its affecting her. Will work on inviting her friends around to play again, see if that helps. Should do ;o) OK gotta go put her to bed, have a good evening all :o) soniat-d (153 ) 8:19 pm, 3 Aug

1531. |
|
I had a lovely afternoon |
|
|
thanks. It's strange, we have all only known each other for a few months yet it feels like a lifetime. It's great. Bit like on here really. Hehe no call from work today thank goodness. Back there at 7am tomorrow!
|
|
|
1532. |
|
Sonia, I knew she woud be really good.......... |
|
|
but you can tell by things you say about her that she has a sensitive nature. She's beautiful Sonia and so is Emily......You must be very proud.
|
|
|
1533. |
|
Sonia you will be so proud |
|
|
of Lydia. She sounds a beautiful little girl. She will have all sorts of things going through her little head. And you are a wonderful Mum. (((HUGS)))
|
|
|
1534. |
|
I sure am Joystik :o) |
|
|
Considering all they have witnessed me go through, and the things other adults say in front of them (like "OH no you have cancer, my .... died of that" (?!?!) I think they're doing admirably for such wee souls :o) soniat-d (153 ) 8:27 pm, 3 Aug
|
|
|
1535. |
|
Maewest, is that a 12 hour shift?? They are quite |
|
|
long days aren't they. Your friends sound like all you guys that I have met on here and talk to everyday. I feel like I have known you all for ever....it's great
|
|
|
1536. |
|
And Sonia, they hear more and take on much more |
|
|
than you ever realise too. And then it comes out in really odd ways sometimes, like they wil do something really strange that they wouldn't normally do, and react like a stessed out little person....They will have seen you go through so much in a year or more and will hear things and be being dropped off with other people while you attend appointments etc. It effects the whole family in quite a big way doesn't it....
|
|
|
1537. |
|
Sonia people can be so |
|
|
insensitive. Have you really had people say that in front on the girls? That's terrible. The poor wee souls. It has been hard enough for my grown up boys. I can't imagine how it must be for your little ones. You will be a new person ater all your 'bits' have been fixed up...it's almost like a makeover!
|
|
|
1538. |
|
Sonia |
|
|
I know its been said before but you must be very proud. Dear little poppit. Give her and Emily a cuddle from us here. Hugs to you (((((HUGS)))))
|
|
|
1539. |
|
Joystik, just |
|
|
7 hours the next 2 mornings, then 12 hours on Sunday and 8 on Monday night....that's enough!!!! Yes these 2 girls (ladies!) are really neat and so much fun. We chat about anything and everything! Wouldn't it be great if we could all have a get together somewhere?? Who knows!

Hi Paula |
|
|
Hope all is well in your world. How is Josh tonight? Has the chemo and steroids affected him yet? And how are YOU?
|
|
|
1541. |
|
Hi Maewest |
|
|
I am feeling sooooo much better thank you! Josh looked so awful today, pale and so heavy under his eyes I hate seeing him like that. He is feeling the effects already of all of it. I had to get him to eat up so I could give him his chemo two hours after dinner, then for once he just went out like a light. Sound asleep. They both are tonight. Dear little things. I am so blessed. His x-box is playing up now. Of course to him thats a huge thing. Its his world. Hope I can get someone local to look at it???
|
|
|
1542. |
|
The hours you work |
|
|
Maewest - I am so glad the people are fun to work with. Yeah a get together - Maui's nice lol
|
|
|
1543. |
|
Sounds good to me |
|
|
Paula. I saw Josh's pic on his website. He does look miserable. It must be so hard for you. You are doing such a wonderful job. I'm so pleased you are feeling better. Boy it has taken a while. Onward and upward ((((HUGS))))

Is Joshs' xbox still under warranty? we had a problem with ours and they just replaced it as they told us they just replace them.
|
|
|
1545. |
|
I saw it too Paula and he did look kinda sad to me |
|
|
I told him in his guestbook that it was on account of the school work.....Poor kid has a bit to go through doesnt he. Give him a hug....but dont wake him up will you
|
|
|
1546. |
|
Actually Lauren got a new one soon after we got it |
|

|
1547. |
|
hi sonia, haven't read much lately |

1553. |
|
Hi Joystik :) |
|
|
Still plodding along here Danny went to his dr on Tuesday and his meds have been increased. According to the doctor he has plateaued. I guess it just takes a lot of time and patience. Jordan is due to have another bout of vertigo soon so its going to be a long month. But while I have the chance I am going shopping tomorrow and the hairdressers etc so I can have a bit of "ME" time :)) I hope you hear about your job soon, must feel like its taking forever to you? It sure feels like a long time to me, every day I come on to see if you have heard :)

It was cool wasnt it, the email that is... Josh was really not taht sad today - he was pulling such crazy faces when I took that photo it was inbetween some hilarity and well you know what we are like. Sorry if it made people sad. I just took it cos too me its another marker - the da after, the start of it all again. But one day closer to it all being successful. xoxo
|
|
|
1557. |
|
Yes Paula, I know you guys as funny,happy people |
|
|
but I suppose he just gets sick of himself some days and wishes he was someone else just for w while so he didnt have to put up with all this STUFF!!
|
|
|
1558. |
|
Hi Janet, I think it will be after the weekend now |
|
|
so check again then. I had to r-do part of the profile so they could do a proper analysis of my character and suitability for the position. How you dont have too uch to put up with, but I guess you know whats in store and now you are getting prepared for wen it sets in. Take care and treat your self tomorrow....(((HUGS)))
|
|
|
1559. |
|
Joystik |
|
|
Yea I bet he does too, just probably doesnt tell me about it, cos he wouldnt want to upset me...
|
|
|
1560. |
|
Glad Bogey Ryan was asking for ice cream |
|
|
and Paula you are feeling better. Hope these people don't keep you dangling too long Joystik waiting to hear about that job. Wet here today so did another movie. Tiredness has set in a bit in last couple of days and I have had aching joints & muscles quite bad again. Grr just getting impatient! Away for a port flush tomorrow. I have damaged 2 molars during chemo and was staying across the road from Dental School in Dunedin. One of the other people had been going over to the school for treatment while doing radiation so I went and enquired about it too. What a laugh. Got told depending on what year student could be 3-18 month wait! I actually had an appointment at dentist day I started radiation and had to cancel it but have another next week. landylass (48 ) 10:02 pm, 3 Aug

Hi Landylass |

Sorry you are feeling so tired. What a crock with your molars and how ironic youhad to put off that appointment. Hope the aches and pains ease off for you xo

Joystick I had |
|
|
3 cycles of FEC and my hair started to go about 10 days after 2nd one. My hubby was getting mad with me as it never all stopped growing and I used to run his shaver over the top every morning otherwise it annoyed me on the pillow at night. First place I lost it was under arms. Went all over except for the legs which only partially went and thats where I was hoping it would all go! As soon as they took me off FEC it all started to grow back. Sadly its coming in quite grey and straight but hey its better in this weather to at least have some cover now! landylass (48 ) 10:06 pm, 3 Aug

Hi Paula |
|

I'm with you on keeping Joshi away from school and the bugs. Especially if chicken pox is around. Can't be too careful. Hope you get that XBox going soon... he will have withdrawal symptoms. Will post a photo of Mr14 once he got the wireless controllers. Instead of sprawling on the floor he found a new perch on his sisters music stool and could sit like this for hours! landylass (48 ) 10:09 pm, 3 Aug

Hi farmerlloyd |
|
|
How's it going are you worn out chasing those sheep? I did think about you when going through Culverden and seeing all the little lambs playing there were heaps and guess what at Reefton on the way home outside a shop was a box of SWEDES for 60cents each. I pounced on them. The paddocks in Reefton are so green I don't think you would see them as green anywhere else, mostly dairy farms there I think. Take care farmer lloyd.

thankyou for missing me.Glad too hear you are doing so well. I went to CHCH on the spur of the moment I was brousing through trademe and saw all these pavers for sale( over 600) I said too Malc I have to get them cause I have such plans for the back garden well anyway I bid on them and won the auction. They had to be uplifted by Friday so we hopped in the ute and over we went.Well what an experience after we finished loading them we were driving down the motorway and him next to me said the trailer looks at an odd angle so we pulled up and

I went too help and they told me to bugga off. They were fabulous I can't speak highly enough of them.

Hi again joystick |
|

I will never be too busy to come on here, like you everyone seems like old friends and I have to find out how they are doing.Our season doesn't start till 1st Sept and finishes on 14th NOv. it is one month shorter over here because they felt it was getting fished out. I am so pleased Sheri is coming I have to answer her mail yet. I read where sheep pellets are the best thing out for roses. Do you think farmerlloyd might bundle me up some? well off to bed will catch you tomorrow.

We are in for a lovely sunny day today eh? Just perfect for wandering around the farmland around Wyndham! I hope you are kicking those bugs and that Josh has a better day today.

I have been busy this morning doing stuff. Such a beautiful day here in sunny Southland, that I will be outside most of today and not on here. Going for a ride out country later on to, and having coffee with another friend shortly. Ohhhh what a busy life....Hi Paula and Josh, hope you love the farm you are going to look at. It will look great on such a nice day. Frmerlloyd, there wont be much sign of you here either on a day like this. Nice to see you Bogeyi, and I hope that Ryan doesn't have to suffer to much nasty stuff with this transplant. Thinking about you all lots....((((HUGS)))) joystik (285 ) 10:24 am, 4 Aug

Hi Boop, so pleased to see you are back. I |
|
|
was beginning to think maybe you had gone to see the Grandkids or something. The trailer thing was a bit of a hassle, but isn't it just grand to know that there are still nice blokey blokes out there that would take over and do it all for you like that. It restores ones faith in humans. You are into roses now aren't you?? Once you start buying them you can always find a place for just 1 more. My success rate with Warehouse roses was, sad to say, very poor. Probably less that half actually grew at all and the others were very slow. Of course they are a real bargain if they do though. Good luck with them. Yes, that pelletised sheep manure at the warehouse is very good if you cant get the real stuff. Easier to handle too. I am going to feed mine more organically this year and leave the phosphates in the shop!! I have always been big on spreading Nitrophoska everywhere, including the lawn so as to have the greenest lawn in town!! joystik (285 ) 10:29 am, 4 Aug

Hi Landylass, thanks for all your info on the hair |

thing. Yes it seems that everyone reacts slightly differently to these drugs. It would seem that I am quite tolerent to them especially given the size of the doseage, and the fact that the side effects are very minimal. I guess in that light, I will have to shave the legs and armpits after all, and just imagine what a Braviallian would have been like!! Although I guess with 3 treatments still to go, there is time for changes still. Hope you have got a beautiful day like we have here today....it truely is stunning!! joystik (285 ) 10:32 am, 4 Aug

Hi and welcome to lostcorz and fancylegz....... |
|

thanks to you both for posting and telling you story. I'm very sorry for you loss. Unfortunately that seems to be wht happens for some people. My Mum also had breast cancer twice, first at 29 and then again at 39and then died at 48. I still miss her today and think about how things would have been for her now had she survived all that. Its 22 years since she died now, and of course medical treatments have improved a lot in that time also. But still some will survive this terrible disease and some wont. I am on the WILL list, with all the other poeple on this thread. We all have our swords held high and Fight, Fight, Fight!! Take care both of you....(((HUGS)))) joystik (285 ) 10:39 am, 4 Aug

I would like to be able to tell you that Hamilton is bathed in sunshine, but I would be lying. We had a heavy fog earlier, then it lifted, but seems to be coming down again. On the news it said that Auckland, Hamilton and Chch airports were closed with fog. 5 jumbo jets had to be re-routed from landing in Auckland, 3 went to Wgtn and 2 to Fiji. That would be a bummer to fly all the way from England or America and find yourself in Fiji, and you might get as far as the arrivals lounge, or you might sit on the plane for hours. They don't like all the paperwork if you land for a short time. Very disrupting. A little glimmer of sunshine is appearing, so that will cheer our two spoilt cats (Fred and Monty). Have a good day all of you.

Hi mimi1 |
|
|
Thanks for asking, no I definately still have about 12 lumps in there, the docs are hoping they've died and gone necrotic, so are happy as long as they don't start growing again. My radiologist said the effects of radiation would continue for months, and that the lumps swell and shrink through that process, so I have to assume thats what is happening, for now. Last night I freaked a bit, they all seemed big whole area was lumpy, felt awful, so I was crying etc. Then this morning, sweet as. Its freaky alright, hate it :o/!!! soniat-d (153 ) 12:58 pm, 4 Aug

The sun is shining here in sunny Hawke's Bay, and we have been playing outside all morning. I love the sunny weather!!!! I am great, and hoping to go away (only to palmy) next weekend without the kids. It'll seem so strange with no kids at all. I have 6 here when my 2 finish their school day - 7mnth old, 20month old, 2year old, nearly 4year old and mine are nearly 6 and nearly 10. Man I love kids! meridian1 (300 ) 1:07 pm, 4 Aug

over up there this morning and the flights were being diverted all over the place. I see that happened last week or sometime and he planes landed at Whenuapai and the people wewre left sitting on the planes fo 10 hours!! That wouldn't impress you much would it! I see you are having a busy day again Sonia. Sorry you were distressed last night. We have times like that dont we. I woke up a bit like that this morning but think I was on the tail end of a dream, and couldn't even remember what it was about after a few minute, so came right quickly. But initially I did feel just horrid! I think about you, what you have gone through, and what you still have to go through, lots of times every day. Good thing you are such a positive lady and a delight to be around......((((HUGS))))and to you too Dize....

Hey bettyboop |

How's the coast today? I have New Dawn...it's lovely. Also have Maryrose..it has a lovely perfume. I'm sure with some tender care those Red Shed roses will thrive. Yip the old sheep pellets are great. Must admit though I tend to use nitrophoska. It's great stuff. Still haven't finished pruning. It will happen sometime. I have a friend with an award winning garden and all she does is use the hedge clippers on her roses!

Thank for the emails. I will have to dig out some to send back to you. You busy girl. Hope you have had a lovely day. Janet, Hope your boys are okay today. That depression is tough. One step forward, two steps back a lot of the time. You just have to make the most of the good days.Landylass that photo of your son is a crackup! How can he sit like that for hours? It looks so uncomfortable! Hope your aches and pains are feeling better today. Farmerlloyd, hope you have had a lovely day chasing your sheep! You won't need bike rides etc like the rest of us! Lots of lambs around now. I love it.We have a paddock over our fence with polo horses. One of the locals breeds them and has a polo field over our back fence...Mark Harris...you may have heard of him. His brother does the racehorse thing.

that's my motto now Sonia. Actually I have not long got the taste for alcohol back. Even now, red wine is about the only thing that appeals. In says you can have red wine in my chemo book, so it can't be all bad...I hope!

Hi everyone |
|
|
Had a good day, seems everyone has been very busy on here. Read a wee bit but Cass is waiting for a story so I have to be brief. Farm - not really our cuppa, just didnt feel right, I havent bought much real estate in the past but I think we'd know????? Josh got his xbox 360 - but guess what. After making two phone calls to check this we find that none NO none of his games work on it!!! Poor thing. Chris is going to try and contact Microsoft to ask if we can get anything to adapt to it. The guys at two shops said it should be able to play some of the games. They are not making the old xbox's anymore. :( Poor Josh. He got one game with the console - thank goodness. Oh well, glad you liked the bubba, she is one of the only Jerseys we have left in the herd. Mostly black and whites or crosses. FYI lol

You will need to get an emulator for your xbox 360 and even then only some of the games will play. If you check this site you can see the list of games... http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/backwardcompatibilitygameslist.htm

maewest (i think it was you asking) |
|
|
tyler is fine he went back to school today, his body will reproduce the marrow over a few months all he has is 5mls of iron a day. Ryan is strictly on no visitors, not even his brother or sister now (our choice) he is most at risk now for any infection even from his own body. I had dinner with the kids tonight so that was nice took them to the local RSA.

Bogey good to hear from |
|
|
you. Oh poor Ryan. I wish we could all give him a big group hug. Do they really have to put that tube down again? I think you said it was for feeding him. So hard on you too bogey. It's great that Tyler is back at school. It will be so hard on the rest of your family too...so little they can do while Ryan is in isolation. Stay strong bogey...we are all here praying for you. Huge ((((HUGS)))) XXXXXXX

yes he needs it not just for the feeds |
|
|
but if the mucusitis gets really bad and he cant swollow they need the NG to get meds down.

Hi Sonia |

Most of the time if you can't open a zip file it will be because theres an error in it. I would download it again and try again. If you still have no luck I am happy to have a go :)

I didnt know they used them for meds. Not able to do some through the hickman huh? Josh has asked Chris if he will make a video of him and Cass for Ryan to see. Hope to do that tomorrow. Should be interesting - knowing my kids????

Oh Bogey I wish there was something |
|
|
we could do to help. Poor Ryan with his tubes. I had a terrible night last night and woke up this morning grumpy and full of aches & pains and sat crying in my breakfast then thought of Ryan and told myself to pull myself together.... I'm going thru nothing like he is and now reading about his latest escapade with the dreaded tube, feel really stupid! So I've had my bad day too Sonia. Just getting frustrated that the soreness is getting worse not better. See what next week brings. landylass (48 ) 9:50 pm, 4 Aug

Paula I was going to ask |
|
|
about games on the 360 Mr14 wanted to buy one but was told none of the old games would work on the old original one so he opted for a Play Station portable instead. Got to say its brillient. Kids watch movies on it while travelling sharing an earplug each! Oooh thats a lovely new calf... but I don't envy you the next few weeks work! landylass (48 ) 9:53 pm, 4 Aug

Kiwikaz sorry to hear |
|

B has had another seizure. Hope it wasn't bad. Does it lay him low for a couple of days afterwards? You need to get rid of the bugs before lambing. Hope they mother up well and you don't end up feeding them all! Have a good weekend. landylass (48 ) 9:56 pm, 4 Aug
