Title: Missed ya !
Post by skatnbnc on 02/24/11 at 07:46:16

Hey all - I was pulling a Mick and bowed out of posting recently due to health issues for a long month that turned into ...three actually.

I was lurking occassionally, but finally got the password reset to jump back in the Suzi pool again. Been riding, but not as much as I would like. Need to get the camera back in the bike bag to rejoin the scavenger hunt again.

Hoping my health stuff will not keep me off the bike for too long in between treatments. Glad to see the hunt has had some good finds!  :)

Well as it happens Mick, I'm right there with ye.

Found out on my birthday Dec 22 that I have breast cancer, both sides. Sucks, but what can you do?

So, I am still riding in between chemo treatments. Not gonna let it restrict me ! 8-)

Post by skatnbnc on 02/24/11 at 17:25:41

thanks everyone - its good to be back. I missed everyones Cafe comments, ride news, mods and advice; just peeked in occassionally in January in between doctor visits and tests.

what i've got happens to be very rare - 1% of BC's are this type, lucky me.  its called Inflammatory breast cancer. I had a clear mammogram in August, and by Dec had a Stage III aggressive cancer going on.

currently in chemo, then surgery, then chemo and radiation. different protocol than 'normal' BC due to the invasive aggressive nature of it.
icky but necessary or my riding time would get cut to full stop real fast.  :P

it has been nice to get out and ride on the couple of really nice days we have had in between our crazy snow and cold. I am happy to be in NC instead of even 100 miles further north right now!  :)

Great to see you back!  Been wondering where you've been!  Sorry to hear of your issues, but thanks for reminding me my mammogram is overdue.  My mother is a 5+ year survivor, so I have faith that you will triumph too.  

Best of luck with everything!  Keep us posted when you feel up to it.  We've been known to be good "therapy"!

My mother went through it a couple of years ago and she's doing fine. She's in her mid 70's. Attitude means a lot, you seem to have a great one. Best wishes and best of luck to you.

Title: Re: Missed ya !
Post by Southpaw on 02/25/11 at 08:45:11

Best wishes and prayers for you. Keep your spirits up and by all means keep up the two wheeled therapy as you can! Attitude is EVERYTHING!!! Keep us posted on how you are doing and welcome back!
 I have several close friends who are in the 5 years free stage. They keep a wonderful attitude and meet every year in the fall with a survivor group to ride convertibles through the wineries here to raise money and awareness. I'm hoping, praying and donating to research, for the day when this will be a disease of the past!

Title: Re: Missed ya !
Post by drharveys on 02/25/11 at 20:56:04

Nothin but the best for you!  Wishes, prayers if you want 'em, coming to you from me.

Keep that positive attitude -- and remember, after a certain point, we're all survivors of something!

Wishing you the best. I've been off with back trouble, and I am working hard to get well enough to ride 100 miles in The Race For A Cure this May. My smalltown bank did our first last year. I enjoyed it and I have declared war on cancer as much as I can do. Do you have good support? That was stupid--you got us! Barry

Welcome back Skat, sorry to hear about the BC but like many have already said a great attitude can do wonders. Keep up the two wheel therapy, remember the old saying, you never see a motorcycle parked in front of a shrink's office unless it's the shrink who owns it.

A few things have changed since you been indisposed, for instance I no longer own the FireLizard and I believe there are a couple more FSOs since you've been here, but other than that things are pretty much the same.

Remember, if you need anything, you got plenty of support just a keyboard away. I'll be sending positive energy your way along with every one elses.

Post by skatnbnc on 02/28/11 at 07:24:47

Thanks everyone - i do have great support and my parents are here with me.

Also, by checking out this forum from Dec - Jan I've been keeping tabs on the changes, and also gotten some laughs from the cafe.

It was just that I was locked out so I showed up as a guest until I finally got the internet thing fixed and ...ta da !  I have high speed now instead of dial up!!  ;D

TOday it is 75 and windy so its been a nice riding day. Tomorrow, rain and COLD again. Little by little spring is coming tho!  :)
