Remembering Greg
Okay, maybe all of the former members have gone away but I am hoping that maybe THIS thread will get some people talking. Everyone that was here in the previous "life" of this site knew Greg, and I would say that everyone loved him so very much and respected his opinions and posts. They followed his journey. One thing I…

Guilty Pleasure Binge watching
I must be one of the few people who didn't get on the Grey's Anatomy bandwagon when the show first started. About 2 months ago I started seeing a lot of "shorts" and "reels" on social media and I decided I needed context for some of them. SO, I started watching and I am now on Season 12. Twelve seasons in two months! I am…

The Wrong One
I am in a season of life right now where I have many friends going through really hard times. I always seem to say the wrong thing. There are always well meaning people who want to try to cheer you up or keep you positive when you first get that cancer diagnosis, or when you are getting to a point where they think you are…

Whatnext sure has changed!
I am so grateful to say I am still in remission as of December 2023. That marked 5 years since my last chemo in 2018. I know so many teal sisters are still fighting constant battles and my heart is with you all. My original diagnosis of 3c was in 2014, so if my remission continues, it will be 10 years from diagnosis this…

Recurrence of Synovial Sarcomas
I lost my lower left leg and foot to synovial sarcoma then had four more recurrences in the first of seven years. It's been 13 years, six since I went through treatment for the fifth time. I was told it is when not if it will return and I'm being watched to make sure my lungs are clear and my liver is clear. My rad doc…

Guiding Lights/Shining Stars
I posted recently to ask people to come back and share a memory of Greg- our former fearless and powerful leader. Greg was certainly not the only person I admired on this site. Though we can certainly keep his memory alive and remember the great influence he had, I am hoping that we establish a rebirth of this site with…

Changes
What have you learned about yourself since your cancer diagnosis? Are you more resilient? More positive? More apprehensive? Do you find yourself wanting to research everything? Do you trust what your doctors say and go with the flow or do you want to find alternative treatments? Or research studies? Do you have adequate…

A Look Back
In a short few weeks, it will be the 4th anniversary of the ONLY time I have been called back to have follow-up imaging done after a mammogram. It will be the 4 year anniversary of the day the word "cancer" became a part of my life and my body. I don't know a woman alive who has been called back for imaging, or asked to…
