1)I"m feeling some pain relief that comes from radiation therapy. I"m going 9hours in between pain medication doses. This is a good thing, because for several months there, I was watching the clock and come that fifth hour, I was waiting for the minutes to be close enough to take that pain med. I'd never go the full six hours in between meds, so 9 hours is great! The sunburn from radiation has turned into a great tan, that is in a oval shape smack in between my boobs!
2)Looks like I'll be starting chemotherapy again. The date isn't exact yet, but it will probably be the very end of September, or the very beginning of October. The plans are exact yet, because we aren't going to start anything until we get another PET/CT scan; that's scheduled for 9/23/08. I meet again with my Oncologist on 9/25/08to finalize the chemotherapy plans. No worries though, the drugs will be different than before. Its fine, don't worry.
Steve & I are doing fine with this news; we kind of expected it, after all, the last PET scan showed various spots of new cancer growth. Don't loose sight of the big picture now,I have metastatic disease & I'll always been off & on treatment. When I'm 66years old, I'll die of pneumonia, K!
Have a great weekend,ya'll! I will.

Hi Tiff, Just wanted to say Hello and to let you know I was thinking of you. We all miss you at work and everyone is all ways asking about you. I finished the rock & roll 1/2 marathon. My time sucked but I finished the race. Take care & I hope to see you soon. Allen
