Happy Birthday

Today is Josh's 29th Birthday!!!
We went out to Musashi's on Saturday for his dinner. It is a Japanese restaurant where they cook in front of you. It was awesome!
I've put together a little slide show.
Enjoy!

Back to Chemo

Well I met with my Oncologist yesterday and she is okay with me starting chemo again next Friday, December 7th. If my surgery wouldn't have been laparoscopic I would have had to wait 4 weeks before starting again. Thank goodness the surgery went the way I wanted it to, I really didn't want to wait that long. She did want me to get new blood work done, so I went downstairs to the lab. An hour later, I was finally on my way home. They had one guy working in the lab and 25 people in the waiting room. It was crazy!

So now that Thanksgiving is done, who's ready for Christmas? Who has their trees up? Decorations up? Shopping done? Not me. The other night Taylor spotted the top of a house that got our attention so we drove through the neighborhood until we found it. (Pictures below) All I can say is these people had a lot of time on their hands.

I better get going so I can do my Saturday morning chores. Gotta get that never ending laundry done.

NO CHEMO TOMORROW

Just got word that I won't be having chemo tomorrow. My Oncologist wants to meet with me on Friday to discuss my recent surgery and decide when my next chemo treatment will be. I have to say I've kind of enjoyed the break from chemo but I don't want to much of a break....I'd like to be done with it.

Anyway, just wanted to give you all an update!

Gallbladder NO MORE

It's been a crazy week for me. Monday night I was in the Emergency Room again because of my gallbladder and then again on Friday morning. I can't keep going to the ER every time I turn around, so I told the ER Doc I didn't want to put off the surgery anymore. She agreed and called the on-call surgeon. The cool thing is that the on-call surgeon is the same surgeon I met with originally when my mom was here. She knew my medical history and since my last PET Scan showed no Residual Disease, she agreed it was time to have the surgery. I had to stay the night at the hospital but I got to go home on Saturday. I've pretty much been a bum the whole weekend. I'm still pretty sore but I'm feeling good!

Well, I just wanted to stop by and let everyone know that I am finally done battling my gallbladder. I will write more when I can sit longer in front of the computer. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Happy Thanksgiving



We are having our Thanksgiving dinner today instead of tomorrow. Josh's Aunt Tina lives in Redding and has to work on Friday so she would have to drive home on Thursday. We figured this way she won't be so sleepy from eating a Turkey dinner if we ate today instead. I don't know about Aunt Tina but I will have leftovers on Thanksgiving!!!! From our family to yours, we hope everyone has a very nice Thanksgiving!
