Joachima

Thinking of you so I stopped by. Hope you’re well :-)

How are you doing now?

Hi, Joachima. It was so nice to see a post from you. I hope you are doing well. : )

How you doing? Just happen to see your face on an old answer. Appreciated your belief all would be ok for me back in the days of my tx. Only 5 weeks out of it but funny seems like a life time ago in another sense. You were a shiny bright light to me prior to brachy and thank you for it. I'm try ok to do the same for others at the starting gates. Have a blessed day!

Thank you again for your response to pelvic radiation. I'm stopping after 5 due to the extreme burning already. Can't imagine what would be by day 25 as well as hip pain that already began after one week. I'm going to try the brachy like you. And return for 3 more rounds chemo. Any advice for the brachy? Thanks again.

Did you recently update your icon picture? You look terrific! : )

Hello and thank you.

Hello Joachima;
Do you have any infomation regarding chemo and an increase in high blood pressure. I thought I read something in one of your previous posts. Do you know if the blood pressure is too high does the chemo change? or what is done for this situation? Thank you so much for everything you do for us.

J, I would like to know how you found a doc who was familiar with this cancer. It's pretty rare and I can't find anyone in my area who has seen it. They are relying on med. pubs.

Hey Joachima.......Wonderful to hear about your songwriting. I can be found here...

Is there any place I can hear you. I've written a few songs about my Journey and thoughts also.

Good Luck and keep in touch.
Barry

Just wanted to say hello and hope you are doing ok. Found out Friday my lung cancer has gone to my brain. Hopefully having cyber knife radiation by end of week. Say a little prayer for me please. God bless you!

Happy Thanksgiving. How are you and your husband?

Hello! Thank you for posting on my wall. How are you progressing? Congratulations on your survival!

How are you and your husband doing?

thanks for offering support sure could use it...the anxiety level is high sometimes I had surgery and went through chemo just finished recently and will be finding out whats next(ha ha)

How do you and your husband feel tonight?

Thank you very much. They took three new x-rays tonight. I was tattooed for radiation. I have the name of a surgeon.

Good morning Joachima: I noticed a post speaking of music ministry. I've been in music ministry for the past 15 yrs.... Being music director at several churches in several denominations. Since April of this year, I've just been doing fill-in/ substitute musician work. Thank goodness for those calls... Otherwise, I feel a bit like a fish out of water. Music ministry has become so much a part of my identity! Basically, my weekly schedule evolved around the church, service planning, rehearsals, and etc... I do have a lot less stress to not be 'in charge'... Did you have a time when you were not leading worship? How did it feel?... May God Bless your ministering!

How are you and your husband doing?

Surgery Tuesday. Just wanted to know how you are doing.

I am overjoyed to hear you're back in your music ministry!

How's your weekend?

i wasn't covered at all except in between images, xrays, measurements etc-I can't imagine how they can do it with a cover-would be nice though

Joachima, Hru 2day? Just started Megestrol. Any plans for July 4?

Hi Joachima!! Nice to meet you!!

I love your inspiration today for me... I took over the counter unisom and slept like a baby. It fell to much better today because of it. Thanks God for all he has done for me today. I will center myself in service to the Lord as soon as i recover from my surgery this week. I play piano and worship every morning. Perhaps there is something I can do in the area for my church as well. Bless you...

Hi Joachima. How is today going?

Thank you for welcoming me. I appreciate there are people here on similar journeys.
I am a little overwhelmed right now (i get my treatment plan on Friday).

Hi Joachima, thank you for your offer of support and to answer my questions. That is very kind and I appreciate it. It is always comforting to know there is somebody else on your team. It means a lot. I think I am still trying to absorb this latest news. But what are you going to do except go on. Take care and if there is anything I can do to help you, please don't hesitate to let me know.

hi, I read your feedback about radiation if you're shy - I should be starting vaginal radiation in about three weeks so i was very interested in your response. anything else you could share about that experience with me would be appreciated. I'm trying to prepare emotionally, was going to ask for a sedative or something, maybe I'm just too anxious about this without knowing the facts.
