Doin' Fine

I have been reminded too much lately, that I haven't updated the blog. I was going to wait until after my appointment with Dr. McCoy on Wednesday, but was just told that ANY news would be better than no news, so here goes....

I am doing very well considering where I've been! While my energy level has improved, I still tire after trying to do too much and have to stop and rest. That's my body talking to me, I guess. With more movement, my appetite has improved, but I still don't eat a whole lot. Snacks are good, though.

David, Trisha and Heather invited me to come join them at the beach next week for my birthday (6th), so I'm going to do that. I hope to have new CT/PET scans done the week of the 10th or 17th, and am resigned to begin chemo again soon after.

The Senior Associate Director of my office has approved holding my office position until January 2010, which was a HUGE relieve for me. It is one of the best pieces of news I've had as I absolutely love my job and our office unit, but recognize that the office needs a "warm body" working my position. I'm still blessed with donated leave from the wonderful employees of Virginia Tech. I am hopeful I can get through this nightmare known as 2009 and be back to a normal life by the 2010.

Please feel free to call to say hello, visit, play cards, etc. I will update again after my appointment with Dr. McCoy.

Love to all!
