Thank you nancyjac your explanation helps, I hope I can remember this lol ! I really appreciate your response.kimg09 I hope you get my reply to you.

Chemo brain is not so bad. You'll learn to compensate. It did cost me my job, but was cancer free for 10 years.

thank you I now will try to do that.

Nancy Thanks for writing about the ommaya. Did you use one for your chemo? What was the surgery like? Did you have more or fewer effects after chemo? Would appreciate your insights into this device.

Just wanted to tell you that you are an inspiration! I enjoy reading your posts and I wish you only the best of health. I found WhatNext after I had finished my journey. Honestly, I wasn't looking while I was going through treatment. I didn't want to hear about other people's "problems." I only wanted to surround myself with optimistic people. It was only after I was done and declared cancer-free that I wanted to reach out and help others. You have an amazing blend of both a strong person facing adversity head-on and someone who can help others at the same time. Kudos to you!

Maintain your optimism and keep your focus. May you be blessed with good health.

Hi nancy jam,
I've just started on my journey - with non small cell squamous carcinoma in my lung. I will start treatment next week so I'm very unsure of the future!! I'm so glad I found this site, being able to read about other situations.

Thankyou nancyjac! I have been struggling to send you an answer. Thankyou for your reply. I guess our cancer experience is kind of similar ---the only difference between yours and mine is that mine was not "inflammatory". Be strong and hope that you would come out winning soon.

Regards, Liebemutter

It was inspirational to read your story! As we all know on this website, life can be hard at times, but hope is eternal and it sounds like you have it. I thank you for the advice you have given me and look forward to hearing from you on other issues as well. Your opinions are highly valued and appreciated.

Happy Thanksgiving and to many more!

Nancy, you are our Wednesday's WhatNexter of the Week. Please let me know when you see my post about you show on your Homepage. I'm still having a little trouble getting my Media Posts to show on everyone's page. It's taking a few hours for them to show up.

Thanks for all you do for everyone here, and if I don't talk to you anymore before tomorrow, have a great Thanksgiving.

Hello Nancyjac, I just read your "Whatnexter" Post. I want to thank you for sharing.
I have just started mine (Journey) but feel as you do ,I have a wonderful team.
I am thankful to have been able to have a lumpectomy, from which I am recovering very well. I have not felt so bad, just tire easily. I have not met with my onocologist yet but hope to next week. My surgeon,said I would have three choices of treatment and I and the oncologist would be deciding.
Thanks again for your story and I hope the very best for you that the Lord will grant you good health and days from hereon. Scouser.

Thanks for your Medicaire answer Nancy.

Thanks for your response!

Nancy: "staying" or being "active" is nearly an impossibility for me these days. Between constant severe pain, being attached to an electric wheelchair, not even being able to walk from one end of my 60 ft mobile home to the kitchen ( in the middle) without praying to God to "take me now," and now the additional symptoms of this cancer, and the treatments for it, active to me has become keeping my mind occupied enough to not go insane. If I haven't already. Life was all but totally unbearable before cancer, now, I'm just not sure of anything. I "thought" I had it all together before the extra problems (symptoms) of cancer came along. I used to be capable of dealing with most anything before, any more, I just don't know. However I'd like to thank you for the information, I'll try to some how use it.
