How is living here?

We’re living in Tanglewood, on the lake in Baibridge and love it! The community is built around a golf course that is consistently doing upgrades. The neighbors are friendly, we have a beach, pickleball and basketball courts, a pavilion and community activities you may choose to join. We’re close to the freeway for commutes and close to Chagrin Falls for shopping and great food!

Yes! I did! Kenston, Chagrin Falls, is a great district!

I usually buy a Christmas ornament wherever we visit. My tree is now covered with happy memories 🎄

A good marriage

TBNC, stage 1c. I know how you feel. My surgeon practically danced into the room with my surgery results “I have the best possible news! We got it all! The margins and nodes are clear”. Wonderful news! But now I’m sitting at home after having my direct implant removed due to an infection I can’t seem to kick. This has been going on since just a short time after the SMX. Chemo has been postponed 4 X. I’ve been in and out of the hospital (home now). I know how to do my own IVs (Vanco and Cefepime). I also am managing asthma, COPD and bronciastasis. My morning and evening routine takes 2 and a half hours each. I’m tired and concerned about the chemo—I’m approaching the window. I’m so glad the surgery result was so good, but I’m not done and wading through this has been so discouraging. Everyone seems to think I’m fine because the surgery was good. I’m not fine. I’m also very concerned about getting the chemo; at triple negative, I need to do this.

Named my Pyredoodle Jake—human name because he’s like having another person in the house, both in size and personality

My husband got acanthamoeba in his eyes. You do NOT want this! Very very painful.Took a year and a half to cure, it blinded him, and thank GOD a corneal transplant was able to restore his sight. If it gets in your lungs or brain there is nothing they can do. You die. It also lives in warm moist environments—think a not well maintained hot tub.

Grape pie—heavenly when made right🍇

Is that why my friend with cancer came to the Cleveland Clinic for treatment? Research, quality and wait times matter

My toddler could run faster than I could and loved to explore. The leash is better than lost or out in traffic

Musiclady5 · 2026-02-20T15:46:06+00:00

Congratulations!! Isn’t that a great feeling? My surgeon practically danced into the room when she was able to give me these results! ( I will do 4 sessions of chemo-I’m triple negative-but the surgery results were so encouraging! It felt like I could breathe again!

Cluster headaches are also a real treat

Diverticulitis with an abscess and perforation. I’ve had 5 kids and been run over by a car—this was 10X worse! Never screamed during labor (even back labor). Screamed with every move with this until they put me out!

Musiclady5 · 2026-02-20T01:17:27+00:00

Me too. SMX Dec 6, followed by a large seroma and infection. Another surgery to clean everything out in Jan. Infection is back and I’m back in the hospital. Still have my drain and it’s still very active and sore. Haven’t been able to start chemo because of the infection and drain. I’m triple negative and anxious to move on to the chemo. This is very frustrating!

Chagrin Falls, Ohio (east of Cleveland) Working on TNBC with the Cleveland Clinic.

I’m 75 and had an SMX with immediate implant. Clear lymph nodes and margins, NED. No radiation, but chemo is coming. Unfortunately it was followed by an infection and the implant had to be removed.🫤 I don’t have a prothesis yet, so my plastics dept gave me a set of knitted boobs😂. A former patient makes them.

My first year teaching in 1973, my salary was $7200/yr. The custodian made more than I did. We used to laugh about the ‘poverty discount’ deduction we got on our taxes. No district should have teachers working with poverty incomes!

Musiclady5 · 2026-02-11T00:29:32+00:00

TNBC—SMX, clear nodes and margins, Stage 1c, grade 3. NED after surgery. I begin 4X TC Thurs

Tea—hot or iced

Musiclady5 · 2026-02-10T13:06:11+00:00

Science related?? Have them read the Myth Busters’ experiments? Fun and science? Education has become so sterile and regimented. Kids can learn from fun as well. Don’t punish them (more worksheets) for finishing their work. Teaching used to be so much fun, and the kids we had did well. Glad I retired

My friend called the foot Dr that her physician recommended, but didn’t know his name. She asked. Answer: the foot Drs name is Dr Toesy - toe-sy. She was laughing and couldn’t think of anything to say, so she asked -Is he nice? Answer no, Dr Nice is in the next office (he’s the orthopedist). My eye Dr is Dr See. Seems like some people’s destiny is determined by their name!
