What can I say. Wish me luck.
What can I say. Just havent been here for while been having some health issuse that keep getting worse. what started out as a runny nose went to Melanoma Cancer in my sinsus. I'm one in million to get this in the sinsus.
Well the next two months are going to be......yipes. I start the big time shot for melanoma on Wensday. On monday )today) I have to see the oral denist to have some bad teeth removed before I go under the Radiation Lazor Cybor Knife from Outspace which will be 5 straight days of radiation. Before that
I'll be fitted for a mask so they hit the right place. If they miss ....well lets say it won't be pretty.
Somewhere in the middle of this I"ll be doing MRI's and CT scans to keep track of the melanoma.
I stay on the experimental shots for 6 months every three weeks, so no Q-Ville either. Hopefully if everything works I'll be able to smell rose's again in about 1 year. Just stayig home for the rest of the summer
The only thing thats scary is I'll be the first person to do both, the knife and this shot, at the same time. Think of me as Turtle The Lab Rat.

WOW! One in a million, and the first to get the knife & shot simultaneously?
That's nothing to blow your nose at....
(Sorry, I couldn't resist! But they say, humor IS the best medicine - though from what you say, it sounds like you're already taking it all as well as anyone possibly could -)
Good luck, Turtle!

the funny thing is...i'm not scared. the only time it rock me is when Dr. Weingarden said the melanoma wasn't bi-nine (sp). Since then its been what will b will b. but now yesterday pissed me off. they pulled all my teeth. then said they can't be replace until everything is over with.....hello!! I will not go around with out teeth, sorry. I'm looking a e-bay for a set.....lolololol
Six months from now according to Dr. Meoz. Thats how long I have to take the meds. Radiation will be only five days straight.
see you must look at the positive side
1. I get all new teeth. they were all bad anyways. and it was going to cost $1000.00 to get them pull from the Dentist, this way it was FREE.
2. All new hair. well....i do love scarfs and hats. remember Turtles don't have hair anyways.
3. and best of all I lose 50/60 pounds. like thats a bad thing. I weigh 200......i would love to loose 60 pounds.
I b looking good at 140, hell ya!
thanks for all the well wishes. You make me laugh Riddick/Dale.

Turtle,
I have had long hair for years and years off and on during my lifetime.
About 10 years ago I just got tired of it and called the hairdresser and said do you have time to shave my head and she thought I was kidding. I wasn't and she had time - I had admired Demi Moore's haircut or lack of hair in GI Jane. I had it cut that short and I loved it. It was so liberating.
Since that time I've had it short short and grown it out depending upon my mood.
I bet you have a beautifully shaped head and you will wear it well until it grows out and who knows you may like it really short and just keep it that way.
