HI I'm Nancy /shortshot.... I have mesothelioma in my left lung, small cell cancer in my right lung. In the past 12 days I have to go to the hospital every day fro seven days for a antibiotic in my port. I have a urinary infection that is "drug resistant" so the hospital visits. I live 25 miles from the hospital so back and forth for seven days is really not fun.
Plus.. I had to have one liter of fluid removed from my left lung. Next they put me to sleep and went into my right lung and looked to see why it is bleeding. Doc marked three places for the next doc to Radiate starting on the 16th. Am I Depressed???? You Bet. I went to my doc and he gave me some pills that are helping. Next is my 87th birthday next week on the 19th. Also maybe my book that I wrote will be published.lot s of things going on, but no sleep and depression, some tears and some nothing time still gives me too much time to do nothing. Going to try to take a nap today... Nancy
