Again, GREAT NEWS!

My trip to Mayo today, went well...

After comparing my two chest xrays, the results are

obvious.... definetely gone down in size!!!

I had the chemo treatment today, and then

I will have another in 3 weeks...........

after that, we are taking a chemo break, so the body can build

back up!
my blood work is good. the fight is working!!!
As my dr. said, ' i am one 'tough cookie'!

after a 'chemo rest'; they will do a scan month to month, and from

that, they will decide when I will have chemo again!

again, THANK YOU.... the Prayers are working!

I thought I would give you all an up-date on how things are going....

Been doing pretty well.
The chemo has treated me about the same as the past two treatments.
Still some nausea and fatigue.... maybe a little more fatigued, but I guess that is to be expected.
still doing my walking; and eating as healthy as I can.
My throat has been sore, so I am definetely drinking more, trying to keep it moist.
Some of it is from the chemo, and some probably from the dry air.
My next chemo is on Monday, January 26...... I will also be having a chest xray....
will probably be another long day.
Will continue to up-date you..
My spirits are good! Your support and 'notes, blogs and cards' mean so much!
THANK YOU!!!

MY NEWS IS GOOD!


The tests today, confirmed that my tumors

have gone down 50%!!!!


More will follow, but it appears they will do two more

chemo treatments at this time, and see where that takes us!


CAN NOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I APPRECIATE YOUR PRAYERS, CARDS, LETTERS AND SUPPORT!

WILL KEEP YOU POSTED..............

Happy New Year family and friends!
May 2009 bring you much happiness and 'good health'!

Although 2008 ended with a challenge for me,
I never would have imagined; it has
created a 'fight' deep inside i didn't realize i had.

With all of your prayers, support, cards, and blogs, I continue to
find the strength and confidence to be successful in my challenge.
I can not "THANK YOU" enough!
Wednesday, Jan. 7th, I will be spending the day at Mayo having tests, and my third chemo treatment. Although nervous, I am anxious to move forward. I will update and keep you all posted........ stay tuned!
