Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let everyone know that the trip to see my daughters and grandchildren did a world of good. It made me remember that there is life going on outside the world of cancer. Reggie and I had a wonderful 3 days with all and were glad to get back home for some peace and quiet. The grandkids were full of energy and wore us both out. We slept in til 8:00 this morning. It gave me a new perspective and hopefully I can get packed and ready to go by next weekend. We now have to arrive in the city on Monday as Reg has sopme last minute pre-operative tests to take. Thank you all listening and posting to my silly out of control self.
