CT, Birthday, Follow up news.



IT is official! I am cancer free! I had my meeting with Dr.Victor this afternoon and she says that the CT looks good. The primary tumor is completely gone, and there is just some residual inflammation left from the radiation. We celebrated by eating (that’s right I said eating) at Red Lobster after shopping for clothes that actually fit my 40 pound lighter frame. It has been a long process and I would like to thank everyone for reading my blog, stopping by my facebook page, and just asking how I am doing. The taste buds are coming back also/ each day I am trying something just a little different and I am usually surprised that I am able to enjoy it. Jess took me to Noodles&Co for my Birthday on Tuesday and I had a Beef Stroganoff bowl that was awesome! I still have a way to go until this last of my cancer treatment residual effects are over. My hair is attempting to grow back, but it is all straight, mostly grey, and not growing back in the rear……so I am going to keep cutting it. Jessica and I have a plan for the morning for the Cancer center…actually we had a plan for good news and a plan for bad news….one of which involved a flaming bag of poo! We are preceding with the good plan that involves cold frappuccino's, cold orange juices, and dozens of fresh Schuler’s doughnuts. We decided that would be our way of saying thank you to the staff and patients in the morning. I will keep this blog up and keep you all updated on my progress, and if anyone reading this could say a prayer for Elijah’s Aunt Stephanie Mosier, and my favorite CT tech Lynne, It would be appreciated.

Thank you all!

I am so pleased that you had such good news! God is good! Hallelujah!! And I'm sure SRCC appreciates the GOOD plan. May God continue to bless you & I hope to see you soon. Lynne
