Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Thanks, Patty. I am so thrilled to be returning to work. I feel like I'm getting my life back, bit by bit. I will be a Project Manager for a financial corporation. My start date is March 27th. So far I've spoken with two of my professors at school, and they are willing to work with me so that I can finish up the current semester independently. It's a great offer, and I'm amazed that I'll start with alot of vacation time, too. It's so good to have something positive happen after a year of negatives, and I'm hoping this is just the beginning. Once I'm finished with school I'd like to start putting together everyone's stories (for a book which will probably be self-published), so that will probably be my summer project. > > > > Christene, > > > > This is great news - and I can understand your wanting to be > > cautiously optomistic, kind of like we always wait for the other > > shoe to drop before we're jumping for joy.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Rogene, If your immune system is in tip top shape and your acid-alkaline balance is where it needs to be, I wouldn't think that you need any follow up toxic treatment at all....Your body will successfully fight cancer on its own, especially if you keep at what you are doing. Didn't Suzanne Sommers treat her breast cancer naturally and avoid toxic treatments? I guess I need to read up on her progress. I hope you can forego any of these treatments that have an element of dangerous side effects! But I know how scary the thought is that cancer is lurking....I honestly can't say how I would feel in your situation or what I would do. I just know you are a strong woman and will get through this!

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Suzanne Sommers is doing great, and if you can avoid chemo and radiation, it is so much better for your system. I had chemo and it does have life-altering effects.

Guest guest Posted March 8, 2006 Report Share Posted March 8, 2006 Thanks Kathy . . . I just wish I knew what to do! I'm turning it over to God . . . Somehow, someway, I'll KNOW. Love, Rogene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
