Thank you for keeping us in the loop. She must feel better is she's getting upset about not starting chemo which I do not blame her one bit.

Titan got mad at me the other day because I forgot to tell you that Titan sends her a HUGE slobbery kiss. The dog is a real pain in the ass sometimes. Please tell Tammy what Titan said or he will continue to harass me. :)

Here is my Tammy update for the day.....

She had her first round of Chemo today, which went pretty well. BUT now they are keeping her another night for observation because of her infection and because a very harsh Chemo treatment. So needless to say she is very unimpressed with them keeping her another night. :(

She is feeling good today. :)

Hugs Tammy!! :)

Is it true that she will feel better at first but the effects of chemo could make her feel pretty crappy later on?

Yes, this is how it went with my two good friends with cancer -- particularly with one who was given the most aggressive chemo cocktail available straight away. However, even that friend didn't feel crappy all of the time. She would generally feel really poorly for 2 or 3 days after an IV treatment, but then would improve, and be out and about until the next treatment. Also, a many side effects can be managed now days.

Fingers crossed they let her go tomorrow! I've been doing my meditative visualisation for her each morning.....

That's what we all noticed with my aunt when she was diagnosed & going through chemo. Wasn't sure if it was normal to experience that when going through chemo.

Just because I'm away for a little while doesn't mean you resort to this to get my attention, Tammy! Now kick that crap outta you and come back to us here :) I ain't letting go, sweetheart, and I can be a stubborn b***h from hell. I'm doing the visualization for you, you just keep up your hardheadedness, and those no good real estate space consuming balls will run scared in no time.

Much love, babe! Boone sends loads of love and drool!

Okay I have a small update,

This morning when I talked w Tammy she was not feeling well from her Chemo treatment from yesterday. :( She said she was very sick this morning and feeling very tired and achy today. She was waiting on the Dr for her "marching" orders. lol

I have not heard back from her so I do not know if she is out yet or not, but I promise as soon as I know you will all know as well.

She is still not feeling well, she went home and took a nice long nap. She asked me to apologize to everyone but she is too tired and weak to get on the forum today. She will try to get on here tomorrow and fill everyone in on anything I might of missed.

Home with loving arms and paws around her. Healthiest place in the world right now. I bet the dogs gave her a thunderous welcome.

Sitting thru the message at church this weekend I thought about Tammy, we all have bad days.. her's definatley outweigh mine as it relates to what she's facing.

None the less thought I'd share, it's titled "Joy No Matter What" : Joy No Matter What | Media | Church of the Highlands if Tammy has any free time and cares to watch show it to her.

The world is crazy and so are we, I repect anyones choice of religion.. gotta say when life gets crazy my faith is the first place I "need" to turn. Often time my mind says other wise..

Echoing the thoughts and prayers from everyone on here. And visualizing the cancer going, going...GONE.

Also, if you are up to it, Tammy--- I would love to see a pic of your pink hair! :)

Update

As you all know Tammy is home now. :) Getting lots of love and snuggles from her pups.

I thought I would update you all Tammy is not feeling well at all. She is extremely sick to her stomach from the chemo and very tired. She is getting rest but her body must be very worn out. :(

So that is why she has not been on here yet.

Also no pink hair yet. I am assuming she will get it done once she is feeling a little better. :)

If I find out anything new I will be sure to update this again.

Although the upset stomachs and lethargy are expected, it is concerning to hear that it has set in already.

I'm going to start visualizing a rock steady stomach and a clear head and energy.

We all understand. If we seem eager it is just that we want to assure her that several countries full of friends are willing her well and whole and we will not let a day go by without wishing, praying and visualizing her back to health.

Hugs to Mooshi, Bear and her dear husband. All our pups send drool and wiggles.
