Well, I knew what to expect this time, so when I felt achey on Friday night and all day Saturday it wasn't a surprise.
Friday I went to Mansfield with Mom for lunch and a little shopping. Then I had a wonderful "Sandy Gerber" massage. YUMMY!!!! That really helps you relax! So I was almost numb when Gary & I finally made it to Lori & Denny Mutchlers for our monthly "Crawford" friends dinner get together. The food was fab! Good job Den!
Then Saturday was resting ALL day...ahhhhhh. Took lots of ibuprofen too. I'm not having any tailbone pain/pressure though so that's great! I think I have that figured out! And the best part of being home all day...one of my favorite friends popped in. Pat & Rick Hunt were in the area and stopped for a nice visit. I loved it!
Sunday we rode the bike to Mansfield to pop into a couple stores briefly and eat at Panera. The chicken noodle soup hit the spot. I was feeling a little nauseous. ICK! Then home for a little rest and another ride to get ice cream later...banana splits. YUM! Hope you all had a great weekend!!!
No chemo this week but I get my MRI on Thursday 24th......Hopefully I will be celebrating a "HAPPY" birthday on Friday!

It's 2010! Time to Reflect...
Almost 18 months cancer-free...how long will it last? Such an aggressive cancer, this damn Leiomyosarcoma! Every CT/MRI I have had since my completion of radiation in August 2008 was VERY stressful. Even when I didn't realize it, "SCAN"XIETY loomed in the back of head. Knowing that I had a 50% chance of the cancer returning. Wondering if NOT having chemo back then was the right path. Since my doc's hadn't dealt with many sarcomas, did they really know the BEST treatments?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The last year and half has brought me so much joy and contentment. To be a GRANDMA! Wow. I love it! To become so much closer to my family. My sis is my best friend now! My husband and I couldn't be any closer. I get to see my daughter and her family every week when I go to babysit my little Maxton. My stepdaughter moved in with our youngest grandson, Marcus, for 6 months. He is a little angel. My Mom has been so much help to me through all my health issues. My stepdad and I have become closer than I ever thought possible. He has been down the cancer road as well. My Mother-in-law has moved closer to us and our relationship has grown. And then I began working at Samaritan and have some wonderful friends! I love that place so much! It's worth the 45 minute drive.
I HAVE A WONDERFUL LIFE!
And I know how to live it...by the seat of my pants! :)
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, chocolate in one hand, a beer (or tequila) in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, screaming "woo hoo, what a ride"
**HEY! DON'T FORGET TO GO TO "OLDER POSTS" JUST ABOVE THIS ON THE RIGHT. LOTS OF COOL INFO THERE TOO! YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS ME WITH TIM MCGRAW!
