Pablo

Wow, just starting my journey with Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Anal Cancer, State II. I'm a little scared but am encouraged by your story. Glad you are OK now.

How are you doing Pablo?

Pablo, was chemo part of your treatment? If so, did you have a port and if you do- was it a problem with TSA on your flight to Japn?

Gm pablo, I can relate to your comment about feeling good. I had discomfort through the treatment but I did really well considering the type of treatment. I feel good and I feel kinda guilty for it. Its as if I didn't have cancer and I took a leave of my life for a few. I don't know why. Through all this I would wake up forgetting I had cancer and what would remind me was I had to take my chemo pills. I too feel real good and that is ok. Good luck to you and keep on feeling good.

Gm and ty. I know crying isnt bad. I actually have done really well thru all the treatment so far. It comes and goes and I try to concentrate on other things if I'm able. My husband and daughter get mad if they see or hear me cry. So I call myself a closet and shower cryer. If my family and friends know I'm crying they don't call for days its like I'm contagious or something. Its funny with everyone who loves you and wants to help you in anyway its those times when your crying and you reach out to them that your the most "ALONE".Thats when I get angry. I rrealize I have a lot to be angry about but its hard to get angry with so much of this journey that is tough. Getting angry for me doesn't fit in my life. I just want to know how in the hell did I get this. Thsts where my anger will be directed toward. Hell right not for me the cancer is the easy part. How is the tough part. Now isn't that a new spin on everything. Its the how. Thats it for me..I have done the chemo/radiation treatments and finished that now I wait to see if its gone. Crying cleanses the soul and with that I guess I cry alone. Ty for your message. I wish you well

Thanks for responding to my chemo brain question. I am thankful that you have not had this problem to the same extent. You give my hope that this will eventually improve.

Pablo, thank you for your informative and encouraging words. I am only at week number two of six but I know I'll get through this. I am so happy to see that you made it through and are doing well. Praying for your continued good health. Thanks so much again.
