How is Starbug?

[hdrygas]

I was wondering how Starbug was doing? My sister just had surgery for a rare tumor and I was thing of her Starbug and well some others. How is her Dad.

Yes, How's she doing? And why was the thread removed?

Dave are you there is there something we need to know. Time to chip in? If you say that we need to go away that is it! No questions asked! But she was a bright spot when she was around and though I do not "know" or even know her I have some respect for her and I would like her to know that. We all go through tough times a and having someone say I really do care, is nice. It has helped me in the past. A kind word or a good thought is never lost on anyone.

Hi guys! Sorry I haven't posted in a long time. Work keeps me very busy. The hobby shop is closing down for good, so we've been busy trying to get rid of stuff.


My dad is doing ok. The chemo makes him sick (he's got pills for that), and he's loosing his hair now. My grandfather is thinks it's great (and funny) because now he has more hair than my dad! HAHAHA. Lately we've been having to take my dad in to have an injection of some sort (name escapes me right now) that causes his bone marrow to go into overdrive and produce more (white?) cells. Gotta do this a day or so before each chemo trip because his (white?) cell count is going way down. This injection makes every bone in his body ache really badly. He'll be going in for another CT scan (and I think bloodwork) to see if any of the tumors are shrinking, and by how much. Over all, I think my dad feels pretty good. Certainly a lot better than before the surgery!

hey Angela, its been a while, whats going on with you??

got email from Angela...latest update on her dad

Update:
Dad needs to get a "G Shot" every day for a whole week now prior to each chemo session, due to extremely low white cell count. His stomach is getting sensitive to certain foods, so we're cutting back on those. The chemo makes his throat feel raw and his hands sensitive to temperatures. His memory is getting pretty sporadic now too.....I think he needs more RAM to combat the "chemo-brain". LOL. He's also nearly bald, so has now started wearing the typically-seen cancer-patient head bandanna. He claims to feel pretty good, though he does tend to tire easily nonetheless.

Thanks for the info Angela hang in. This is not a fun time but hope is infectious and helps. Attitude is everything, well not "everything" but a lot.
