Yesterday we did the PET CT scan to restage my cancer after being on Chemo for 2 cycles of 3 weeks on and one week off. Yesterday we also got the results.

Well, yes.....mostly! (they mostly come out at night....mostly) I won't bore you with the sorry details. It's medical issues and work problems and family deals. Suffice to say i'm not dead yet. We did go to ScreamFest Orlando a couple of weekends ago. (me and my child and 2 other friends.) Spent the weekend there. Couldn't really afford it, but ( Read more... )
