April 1st - 2010

Here we are in April now. After three more days of heavy rains and severe flooding we are hoping for some sun and warm, dry weather for Easter.

The above video clip explains how a PET scan works. Mine is scheduled for April 12th with a followup oncology visit on Friday, April 16th. Depending on the results of this procedure will determine the next step in the journey I've been on.

Tomorrow is Good Friday, then Holy Saturday and Easter Sunday. I hope that everyone enjoys this weekend and remembers the real reason for it.

More details after the results have been discussed.

Random Thoughts

While going through the journey that one undertakes after being diagnosed with cancer, it is easy to lose track of time.

You learn that this is a time when you have to really put things aside and focus on the healing and remission. It is not easy to have to pass on invitations and family gatherings, but with your immune system so low at this point, you must concentrate and stay focused on the most important thing...your health.



I'm lucky to have a large and loving family and I just want them all to know that I REALLY appreciate all of their support, love, kindness, well wishes, prayers and positive thoughts as we all get ready to enjoy the holiday season.
