Welcome

Hi Karen. I guess there is no 'going back to normal' after something like this. That would be too easy!! I don't know if I'll feel lonely when I finish, but I have enjoyed the support of the others in our group. I think like some of you commented at our last meeting at the Breast Centre, I wasn't really into 'group things' like this, but I was surprised at how I looked forward to the meetings, and was dissapointed when I wasn't well enough to come.

Maybe when one of us feels like it, we can suggest something to do together, like a walk around the top of the lake, or along the beaches... So if you're feeling lonely you could suggest something like that or  having a coffee somewhere.

Hopefully this blog will be good from that point of view too. I like the way I get an e-mail when someone posts a comment. I thought I'd have to check the website all the time.

I think it will take time and patience to move through the next period, and find a new place in the scheme of things. Its not easy thats for sure.

I'm getting Herceptin as well - wondered who else was...Anyone else continuing on with Herceptin?

I had my last chemo on tuesday but am continuing with herceptin. I loved the week my chemo day changed and I visited on the thursday it was like catching up with friends. Still working on the photo, that is finding one I like, not my strong point.

Hi Helen, great you found us at last!! The photo shouldn't be too hard. Go to your Profile, then 'edit profile'. Click where it says to add a photo. Now I can't remember their exact wording, but there should be something to click on that says "browse". Click on that and  from there you can see the folders on your computer. Go to where you save your photos, find one of yourself. Click on it and then click on 'open' or 'add' and it should upload your photo to your profile. Hope I've remembered it okay.

Hi Karen, Finding my way to a web site has been the chellenge for this month, a photo could take a liitle longer.

Is there something I have to click to show up as part of the group?

Hey there Helen, welcome aboard.   We have to get photos of ourselves put on this thing so Louise doesn't feel like she is alone : ) 

I'll send another e-mail inviting others to register again - I've been having a few email glitches lately, so not sure if everyone got the original one. Don't want to nag though.

How about some photos you two? I know you like to look like twins, but its lonely looking different!

No worries, don't blame you for going to bed early in this weather. Gail was trying to get on today too, so we should see her name pop up soon.

not to sure about that !!  I dont thing I will be getting a hair do like that when I get mine back

Your probably right, and that hairdo is much better than my current one
