Hi Everybody!

Erin Payne Checking in, you may remember me from my roles in Sterling built me a Big Al, and Everybody on this forum is my hero, for helping me out in my time of need.

Now that i have confused most of you.. its update time.

Last time i posted i had just finished up 7 weeks of radiation therapy. Well after the 3 month wait for the results of the treatment i was basically told it did nothing.. and the next step is Chemotherapy.

So i started the chemotherapy a week ago and so far i have only had 2 really bad nights. Its not fun.. but hopefully this will do something. This type of chemo has 21 days of treatment, then 7 days off, and cycles twice. If it works, they say i can continue this treatment for up to a year, and hopefully wipe this cancer out. I'm hoping for the best, but after the first round failed not feeling very optimistic.

So tonight at 10:30 in Pittsburgh at the Club Cafe, i am playing my last show with my band. At least until i have a better idea of where i am healthwise.
If any of you are in Pittsburgh, come on down. and let me buy you a beer.

Everyone here has been a godsend for me, and i think about the goodness of everyone here often. If i left out anything you would like to know, ask i'm an open book.

Erin Payne

I'm sending a ton of good vibes your way Erin. Your family here loves you and is pulling for you. My dad went through that same thing and he's doing great and he's 68 years old. You're a young pup, you'll be healthy in no time.

Stay strong, get healthy, keep rocking.

I can't make it to USA Erin, but when you are better, come visit us in the UK and I'm sure the UK knuckleheads will buy you a beer or 20.


Best wishes and good luck with treatment.

You'll pull through it. Think Jon Lester of the Red Sox or Lance Armstrong. They beat it....you will too!

Good thoughts going out to you!
