Hi!

Wow! I am so SORRY about not blogging in so very long, but there has been a LOT going on it seems. A few interesting and fun things to share-- the first is, I met with my breast surgeon, we will call him Dr. "T" (actual name witheld), last Wednesday. This was my FINAL visit with him before the summer. Although I have never mentioned him before, Dr. "T "is wonderful surgeon who is taking good care of me. He is really top notch and I am pretty lucky to have him. He put a clip in my lump a month ago, just before the chemo was started. The idea of the clip is that the chemo may shrink the lump so much it may be difficult to determine where it is at all, so the clip will serve as a guide.

In effect, as I explained to Dr. "T", that after only (2) treatments my lump has actually shrank TREMENDOUSLY. He said this was "good" and that "it is doing what it is supposed to do". He then set my next visit for July 23rd shortly before my surgery.

So looks like I am doing OK! If anyone cares to know EXACTLY what I have been up to, and why I have been away soooooo long you will have to check out my next post--I have been doing some fundraising on behalf of Breast Cancer! YAYYYYY!!!!!!

Give me few and I 'll tell you ALL about it.....
