Re: prayers
Fri, May 16, 2008 - 11:39 PMWill meditate & send her the good vibes (metta) that comes from it to her.

Anyway, Take care. -

Re: prayers
Sat, May 17, 2008 - 9:48 AMI'm sorry gang but here I go - FUCK YOU RAJIV - and I ask that Shannon delete his and this message if Jane is on tribe and might see them. What fucking bullshit to tell someone starting chemo that getting rid of resentments cures cancer (and inferring that cancer is caused by keeping resentments). You are such an idiot Rajiv. As a side note, I love the way you always say everything is someone else's opinion. Take some fucking responsibility for your own opinions instead of trying to shift responsibility to someone who isn't in the room. Man up and stand up and accept the consequences of your comments.
Jane, don't listen to that crap. I'm recovering from cancer myself and one of the worst parts of the experience is dealing with people who are ignorant or naive but mean well and those who are judgemental, prejudicial and insensitive. I understood and accepted it from some close people but otherwise, go call your mother and tell her your opinions.

Re: prayers
Sat, May 17, 2008 - 11:20 AMDont worry Bev, Janie isnt on tribe. Rajiv's a self important cunt. There's a seat for him here too. He's a barometer for me regarding tolerance and my own better than thou-ness. -

Re: prayers
Sat, May 17, 2008 - 2:31 PMBev, I love your resentments...smooches!

Re: prayers
Sun, May 18, 2008 - 2:45 AMWow, then happy people should never get sick! Ever! And my mother in law, who literally lives on hate, resentment and fear, smokes like a chimney, eats like shit, and is still going strong at 86, must be some sort of peculiar freak of nature. (well, she is a freak, but that's besides the point)
hmmph....
Now there may be some truth in the idea that frustration, stress, and the like serve to weaken our immune system and many doctors incorporate stress reduction/meditation etc. into the whole treatment strategy, but that's a far cry from "no resentments=no cancer". -

Re: prayers
Sun, May 18, 2008 - 3:23 PMMarie,I second your opinion.Being told that "pain is just an attitude" by someone after a severe back injury did inspire my most altruistic act.I did keep my mouth shut,and I did not kill them,or even cripple them a little so that they could increase their understanding.I will say that having a positive attitude helps a lot in dealing with chronic pain and illness,they just keep grinding you down day after day and for someone like myself who is already prone to depression .I find gratitude lists and service to be the biggest help,along with the understanding of people who have been there.The outcome is unpredictable,and the process of chemo ain't no fun,but with a little help from our higher power and friends we can get through it with some dignity,and even an occasional laugh.

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 8:55 AMmarie, while i completely agree with you here and i second your resounding fuck you, he is entitled to his opinion as ignorant as it may be. happily janie would just laugh at his stupidity if she were to read his comments.
thanks to all for their prayers and love. janie has done well with her first round of chemo. please keep up the prayers and sending of good mojo, she has 4 months of this to go.

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 11:12 AMI am just checking in....and all I have to say is....this is why I love you people.
Hey, guess what...
went to the doctor. NO CANCER. HAH!
It turns out, however, that the constant pain I am in is not my fault and won't go away if I just exercise more but because of scar tissue so I'm having another snip snip. Who the fuck cares. I'll finally be able to put on a seat belt without wincing.
NO CANCER. HAH!
The real thing here is, a) I'm not going to die anytime soon and b) I really need to stop blaming myself for -

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 11:26 AMoh gosh, didnt you know that if you use foot powder scar tissue will go away.
Marylou Eberhard wrote about this in the book of cures.
but it needs to be coupled with dreams about driving a car that has an over-sized steering wheel.

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 12:13 PMSolid proof that one can beat cancer and still remain pissed! Congrats Bev! Now do the fucking rest of the work they gave you and keep getting better!

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 12:40 PMI think that is wonderful Bev-Marie! I'm so happy for you XO

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 2:46 PMWell that's not really surprising actually. If I were cancer, I'd have found me a more hospitable host a long time ago....it was just a matter of time before you flat scared it away. 8^D
Marie, that just kicks great big fuckin' ass. I'm totally stoked for you. -

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 6:10 PMYou are so important to me Marie. I love you and can't begin to tell you how thrilled I am. Shall we shoe shop to celebrate?

Re: prayers
Tue, May 20, 2008 - 7:30 PMPerhaps Rajiv's been hittin' too hard on the "God Stimulator" and was
"zapped into a loonie", as he feared he would be. -

Re: prayers
Fri, May 23, 2008 - 4:29 PMBev,

Re: prayers
Fri, May 23, 2008 - 7:53 PMAw shucks, you guys are too much. I adore each and every one of you, especially each and every one of you. Couldn't have survived the last three years w/o you folks. Oh yeah, and I adore each and every one of you! -

Re: prayers
Mon, May 26, 2008 - 6:36 PMCould your adoration include splitting a brownie hot fudge sundae? -

This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: prayers
Mon, June 2, 2008 - 11:46 AMi find it interesting that those who have the most "opinions" about certain topics are those that have the least amount of experience with it. If Louise Hay thinks she cured herself, well isn't that just special? Most likely she has no idea what cured her and i'll bet she didn't shy away from chemo either!
It's like people that tell you how to raise your kids when they don't have any of their own. Or people that tell you how to run your recovery when where they are at is the LAST place you'd want to be. There is no shortage of "know it alls" in and out of the rooms. i'm just grateful that i've gotten smart enough to know that i don't know shit! That way i don't have to order anyone else's life and work on ordering my own and trusting my HP.
