re-delurking.

One thing you should know about me: I've lost 5 family members to cancer, the last of whom was my father last April.

You are a strong woman.

I come here because you inspire me.....when I think of why I can't go work out I think of you and I go work out. I come here to cheer you on because you are so fierce in your detirmination to get well. Oh, and I come here because I adore Zoe ~

here i am! i don't know if i count as a lurker since i used to comment but lately i've just been reading, so i guess it counts :)

You plain old inspire me daily.

I have follicular non hodgkins lymphomma was dx in 04, had an auto transplant 07/06,relapsed 12/06. Allo transplant in the near future

I admire your strength as a survivor, your story gives me the strength and determination to fight
Thank you
Robbi

:::delurking::

You are a great inspiration. I began reading your blog about a year ago after a friend telling me about you. I lost my grandmother to Breast Cancer in 1991 and hubby lost his father to Non-Hodgekins Lymphoma in 1992. You are a great person, a strong woman and a loving mother and I wish you a great new year. ((hugs))

Howdy!

I'm a Virgo, I like children and long walks in the rain. Oh, wait, this isn't my Playboy interview, is it? Oops.

...Peeking out from behind the internet...

I lurk because I rarely have anything to contribute to a discussion. But I really enjoy reading what you have to say :)

I'm with Clandestine... I used to say stuff, then just started being a quiet reader.

So here I am, saying stuff again!

Hi!

some days i blabber, some days i don't. one thing you should know about me? ummm... i am honest too much...often to my detriment.

I've been reading since your transplant. You are honest and perserverent and you crack me up--especially when you make fun of Shrub.

P.S. The Christmas Shoes song is stupid. Put me down for an Arby's sammich too.

I keep reading because your inner strength inspires and awes me.

I've commented here from time to time, but it's been a while. I love your strength, sense of humor, and daily assignments.

I'm a breast cancer survivor, and my mom's currently doing chemo for a recurrence of her ovarian cancer. To use one of your favorite phrases: Cancer sucks donkey balls.

Rarely do I comment, but I read you every day. Retired Texan transplanted to Louisiana now to care for aging parents.

I come back because I care and you inspire me.

What you should know about me? I am 5'0" - yep that is the most important thing - lol. Everything else can be found on my blog - ok that is on my blog too.

I lurk mostly, comment occasionally.

I think you are the Queen of the Universe and love "watching" you kick cancer's ass.

I named my daughter (who is now 8 weeks old) based on the fact that her name to me said "I'll take you out if I have to" cause you know someday she'll have to knock someone down a peg.

My 11-month-old is the genius who typed the above. Note the perfect spacing between the periods and the "goo" at the end.

I'm 5'0" too. Short chicks dig the Deb.

I've delurked before and here I am again *S*

Your strength, and the strength of your family, has me in awe.

Delurking for a moment, I've been reading for a while, I lost my brother to Acute lymphoblastic leukemia just about 3 years ago... You are very inspiring. xo Donna

I'm not a lurker really, just sometimes I blather and then I'm quiet (thankfully...lol).

I'm the mom of an 11-year old, high-risk, t-cell ALL patient who is irreverant, persevering and a smart aleck. I come here to get ammo to fend off the crap that cancer throws at us and to offer ammo I've gleaned from my kiddo, too.

I'm here because we internets need you and hopefully we give back to your Highness in reasonable measure, too.

Oh, and so I can say I knew both the Queen of the Universe and the Princess of the World back when... (well, virtually knew you & Zoe...)
:0)

hi! i'm re-delurking, i used to comment like clandestine, but these days i just check on you to make sure you're doing all right. i love reading how Zoe's doing, and pray for you and your good health every day. i think about shoshie and the swlf girls a lot too. xo

Hi Deb... I've resisted delurking on a lot of blogs, but somehow I can't resist your request. I think the only thing you need to know about me is that I admire you and I'm rooting for your continued health and happiness.

*comes out of the shadows*

Ahoy. Consider me de-lurkeded. Or something :D

Anyway, I'm a 17 year old chiquita from way up north in Canada. I ran into your blog from Manolo's shoeblogs, and have been inspired since! Keep up the ass-kicking!

Not gonna.

Been here just about every day, but have been keeping my mouth shut for a while. Trying something new this 2007: listening instead of talking.

What you don't know about me: My son, his wife and my granddaughter have moved into the house next door to us! Can you believe? We're thrilled. He told his dad yesterday, "Well, Dad, I guess you'll be seeing me every day now." His father's comment, "Okay, Son." Lot's of encouragement there, huh?

Another thing you don't know about me: I've got you and that beautiful Z's picture on my frig, along with Sis #1's and Sis #2's!

The O.B Juan Kanobe thing is going to be no biggie! I just predict it's going to be, "ahhh, we'll check you again in 3 months but nothing to worry about." I'm praying!

Miss you,
Denise :)

Delurking, although I've made contact once or twice in the past.

Something you don't know: I'm a sex-worker.

Reason I pop in to read you every day: just love yor zest for life and the way you handle your curve-balls.

I've been lurking for a year or so - I think you're funny! My friend has advanced prostate cancer and I found your site through his links. Please maintain your great sense of humor.

I've been an avid reader of your blog since your diagnosis ... can't even remember how I got here, another blogger I used to read directed me here I think. I've gone back and read everything you wrote before your diagnosis too so I've sorta been with you since the start then!! Lol. I'm definitely a lurker, but I check in every few days to see how you're doing. I've prayed for you, cried with/for you, smiled/laughed with you ... and learnt much from you about strength and determination and love and courage. Your sweet daughter is lucky to have you as a role model.

I lost my sister to cancer on Christmas Day 2003 and my mother to cancer as well on Valentine's Day 2005. My father has it as well. And my brother in law. And my great-aunt. It's scary stuff, but if I ever have to face it myself, I am going to take a page out of your book - I will summon Uma and the Deb-u to be my inspiration. You have much to be proud of.

(This concludes my de-lurking experience ... back to lurkdom ... lol).

well, i'm no lurker, but figger everyone likes more comments :)

xomox

I've commented before - but not often. My 10 year old son has NF1 so I draw a lot on you as inspiration!

I think all the lurkers should stay and come out and play :)

5'0" TOO ! And out of lurkdom. I have no idea how I found you but check on you now often. Your daughter is beautiful. She is lucky to have such a strong mother who is a great fighter! I know your procedure will GO great and have great results. Lots of prayer going up for you! Kick it, girlfriend.

Delurking, late but delurking notheless. Been quietly cheering for you on the sidelines for quite awhile now.

Hey Deb~

Another lurker here....... I found you by accident a few months ago when I was looking for Deb clothing! I keep coming back because I'm inspired by you. When faced with adversity, you just keep ticking along! I wish all the best to you & Zoe! Keep smiling! :)

Here's my one thing. It's something you already know, but doesn't get said enough:

I love you!!!!! :)

Deb,

I have been lurking here for almost a year. A friend of mine from the Leukemia and Lymphoma board told me about your blog.

I sent you an email months ago, but I'm not sure if you received it.

I'm in this fight to kick cancer's ass because my BFF was DX with AML M4 in October 2005. She died in October 2006.

I keep coming back because I need to read about someone who is winning this war. Keep doin your thang girl!

Hi. Delurking late.

I read frequently, rarely comment. You've been a source of strength to me as I've come through a year of fighting my own war with bipolar disorder, which has tried to take everything from me. So far, I have won. As have you. But I'm not nearly as good as focusing on that as you are.
