Bless all of you dear souls dealing with this intrusion we know as cancer. I have learned so much from all of you who have posted, it has brought so much to me, sometimes things I don't want to hear but need to know.

Tomorrow is another CT Scan for old BossaN and I have been a wreck for the last 2 weeks. I have no symptoms, no meds and have been that way for 6-7 months, all my CT scans have shown radical improvement, everyone says I'm doing great, looking great, doing all my usual stuff (still chasing the wife around the dining room table) and all is well, but I worry.

My kids came over for dinner with the girlfriends tonight, it made me feel wonderful, watching them laugh and carry on, helped me make it through the evening.

I'm on an indefinite chemo schedule, folfox5fu until it stops working or until my body can't take it anymore. If the scan looks good I still dread going on with chemo, even though I'm not having severe side effects.

Need to rant, I'll be dancing or crying by mid week...cancer sucks!

Bossan,

We will be thinking of you and wish you the very best of news Good Luck!!!! :wave:

Bossan, my best wishes are with you. That waiting is just awful. A few weeks ago, we went to a dinner that my onc's office sponsors to raise money for their foundation. I met a guy in his 40's who has stage 4 colon cancer and is on a similar chemo schedule as yours. He looked absolutely great-I thought I looked good during chemo, this guy could be a model. It's easy to say, but try to keep a positive attitude.
