Anybody going through chemo?
Anybody on here going through chemotherapy? I was diagnosed with colon cancer in April and just finished my 7th of 12 treatments. Beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel, but it's still up & down.

Man. If you toughed out CF to a bilateral lung transplant, and then through seven rounds of chemo, you are one tough hombre.
I salute you, sir. That is a long and grueling road. How far out from transplant?

My wife went through chemo 6 months ago. You can expect the effects to be cumulative if you react like she did. It will be over and she gradually began to feel better little by little each week. She's in a two day golf tournament this weekend ;-) Best to you in your recovery--you are a survivor!

j,
You're life as a tenacious survivor, one who won't submit, is truly inspirational; a co-worker combats a reoccurring type of cancer about every 5 years, I don't know how you guys do it. A salute is due indeed.

thanks, everyone. Personally, I think BMW should've deeeeeply discounted my 1er due to my situation, but alas, that didn't happen
I thinking I'm gonna try to save up and reward myself after chemo with a 2-day car control course in Spartanburg. What do y'all think? Monetary donations will not be refused! LOL just kidding. 5 more treatments to go!
