Profile Information

About Me:
Im a twenty- two year old that lives in Maine. Oddly enough, just as the movie starts- happy Valentines day- you have cancer strikes all too true with me- dually- it also happens to be my birthday. I had a sarcoma in my head that was removed- and later on this summer I get to go to Boston for a new type of radiation. Trying to stay positive, but its hard in light of reccent events. Additionally- the girl I have been dating through college decided that "whoops" my having cancer was too much stress for her to handle and she split. Guess in the long run its definately better to find that out now- but as you can tell- still manages to screw with my head pretty well from time to time. Anywho- just picked up a new tattoo- my first (after checking to make sure it would be safe to get with MRI's and all) several reasons for it- but no time like the present eh?
Where do you live? (city, state, country)
Maine

I know what you mean about dealing with things. I tend to ignore all that is going on around me. Last week I watched as my phone rang and didn't answer a single call. I am just so tired of explaining to everyone about me...what's going on, how do you feel, what do the dr's say.
I think they got the hint...cause my house is silent this week.
What are you going to school for?
I like that your a night owl! I so am too! I really think I am a vampire.

oh your quote...there is one just like it that I love. I have to remember the right wording. I will get back to you on that!

Hi Dan..sorry I didn't get back you sooner, I've been hiding under my bed. I had 4 "precautionary" biopsies done today where my surgery was in May because the doc said a post surgical polyp showed on my MRI. The radiologist said to just repeat the scan in 3 months but my doc felt better taking a look around. I'll have results next week...so I'm under the bed until then (or hiding in the closet if the dust bunnies become too annoying under my bed). I want to just be done with this friggin shit. I can't take the anxiety. I hear what you are saying about talking about this and I understand where you are coming from. Michelle (from this site) is the first person I have really talked to about canser and it's been hard for me. If you don't mind me asking...what was your surgery like? If you don't respond that's cool too :-) Peace-Gail

Dan...I hear what you are saying..for over 9 years I never even thought about joining a group or being part of a community, or even really saying that I was a canser survivor. I still don't feel like I am, I never had chemo or radiation so all I had was major surgery and then a sort of major surgery, but I know that just having had the shit in my body makes me a survivor. The recurrence this spring of a tiny spot was friggin awful, even though the surgery wasn't as bad, it was mentally overwhelimg (and still is at times). I'm trying to take the attitude that you mentioned..about just going forward and knowing I need monitoring. I pick and choose who I post with and what I read on the forum, but I have to say that I met Michelle who also posted to you..and I'm sooo glad that I did. I bonded to her like glue, and felt like we were old friends. So I guess something really great did come out of me scooping out this group / forum. Maybe you'll have the same thing happen at some point :-) I think you should go ahead and not look back. The follow ups get easier after time. Best of luck to you and no need to post back... Peace Gail

Hi Dan...I saw your comments to my girl Michelle (she's awsome!!) and wanted to give you a shout out. I had a sarcoma in im right sinus too. First one was over 9 yrs ago and I had a crappy, major skull base surgery. No chemo or rads. Then this spring they found a tiny spot by accident (fate..) and removed it with clear margins so again ni chemo or rads. We thought I was having proton at MGH this time so I met with the team and was prepared, but since they got clear margins and this seems to be a very slow growing beast, the team decided not to do the proton. I always felt so "alone" with my dx, but now I have 2 sinus canser fellow warriors!! Peace...Gail

I think it was Gantry 1...I have to look at my certificate! Damm radiation melted my brain a little bit!

Hi Dan..nice tat!
I did proton at MGH in April! They had a great staff and Dr's there. I really liked them. I just hated leaving home for 2 months. I was in Gantry 1 with Jim and the gang. How about you?
