Just got to work after seeing my oncologist this morning -- so of course, rather than doing any work, I'm posting to let you know the news.

Keeping my fingers crossed. The best part of the buying time with cancer treatment these days, is the new therapies are constantly coming down the pike. When my daughter licked her cancer as child, we were told then that ten years earlier she would have had a totally opposite prognosis. Every several months brings the possibility of breakthroughs.

Congrats on three more months without chemo and the hope it won't be needed even then.

You're right, medicine is advancing at an incredible rate. Thanks for your good wishes.

I think we should all chip in and buy you so much time, we all get to celebrate your eleventy-first birthday together.

As my nieces would say, your doctor is full of awesomeness.

Ah, if ONLY I could abuse my credit cards to buy time. :)

Here's to three wonderful chemo-free months! And I will do everything in my mental power to send good thoughts and warm fuzzies your way so that the report in August is good and you can continue your life chemo-free.

This is good news. I'm happy for you. *hugs*

What I really want is to feel good/get in shape for walking around Seattle. But I'll settle for just getting there in one piece. :)

Thanks for the invitation! I'm going to get there, but this weekend is likely to be full of mother-in-law stuff. Maybe we can lure you to Oak Park's all-organic farmer's market in June...

I am keeping you firmly in my thoughts and hoping that you have a fabulous time off chemo. I'll certainly be praying that your cancer is hormone-sensitive, and that you'll have to endure chemo as little as possible. *keeps fingers crossed for August*
