Thank you! :-)

Glam, I have you in my nightly prayer. I pray for a miracle healing for both of us. I hope you are feeling well. I started radiation today along with another round of chemo. I am going to try to work during this treatment time. I coud not handle staying home 24/7 during last chemo treatment, I am too used to working. I hope you had a wonderful vacation. Take care~Lisa

Glam, I too am stage IV ; it is anal cancer that has spread to regional and distant lymph nodes. I have had chemo and now wait to hear from docs if radiation fr six weeks is next. How do you deal with being a stage IV? I am having a very difficult time be "positive" as people tell me I should be. My scans have come back good according to docs, but I still have a hard time jumping for joy over it. I have two children I do not want to leave any time soon. I wait to hear from you. Lisa

Glam, how are you doing? I am facing radiation treatments in the next few weeks once rad/oncologist gets the plan ready. I am very worried over all the possible side effects. The area receiving radiation will be large. (anal area, pelvis and abdomen. Six weeks of treatment. Did you have radiation?

God bless you Glam, I pray all tests come back negative and you enjoy your month off:) Xoxo healing hugs to you!
