Tongue cancer - mine

Post Reply New Topic

Hoping you get the results you want from the PET scan.

Quick healing vibes your way....

You are in thoughts. May all go well.

A man I know survived tongue cancer. His eating and speech have improved alot over time.

This sounds really nasty. Best wishes.

You have a good and fertile mind.

I hope you are able to get continuous Internet access.

I liked the sentiments in this blessing.

Hang in there. This s**t sucks, but people are pulling for you.

Even WP's resident b***h admires the grace and fortitude with which you are handling this, and that's the highest praise.

Good News. The PET/CT scans showed no further cancer.

The treatments are scheduled to start Wendsday. Radiation 5 days a week, Chemo once a week for 6-7 weeks. A leave of abscence of some sort from WP will begin then.

Sounds like excellent news to me!

Always keep a positive attitude.

I am of the strong belief that a positive attitude promotes healing.

Great news that your scans are clear.

Our thoughts will be with you while you take a break for your treatment.

WOOT! WOOT! WOOT!

*happy dancing*

So glad you got good news on the scans.

Fingers crossed that the next part of the treatment will give you the results you want.

Glad to hear your scans were clear and I wish you good luck with the chemo!

The Treatments are underway as well as a leave of abscence of some sort from WP. I say some sort because I do not know how I will react as time goes on. I have 4-5 therapies and treatments per day now. No side effects as expected. The side effects are supposed to start in 2 weeks and grow worse until the end of treatments. The worst is likely to last 3 months after the end of therapies. The chemo was 2 1/2 hours of anti nausea drugs then 1/2 hour of the actual chemo drugs.

The decision to take a leave if absecence was informed by the Spoon Theory
It says that those ill or disabled have less natural energy and will burn out or use thier spoons quicker. I need to not spend my spoons on every special interest. The special interest that takes up most of my time is WP. The numorous software bugs here take up a lot of spoons. As a topic so close to me there are a lot of emotional spoons used.

I will answer personal messages and post health updates here. I might react to threads I recently posted in the next few days. I am thinking of posting Autism news stories of the week during the werkend when I am less busy.

Thanks again for your support.

I will be thinking of you, whether you are active or on hiatus. Best of luck, my friend.

Yep...we'll be thinking of you, regardless of whether you post.

I can understand how it would be difficult to post under your treatments.

We know that you have WP on your mind, and care about WP, as we care about you.

So glad the treatments are helping! It's going to be lonely around here without much of your input, but we all want you to conserve your energy.

The time will pass quickly!
