Hiya guys--YIPPPPEEEEEE!!!!!
ALL CLEAR GUYS!
Heart specialist tild me to go away n never come back today!. Phew, what a relief! We were so worried and if not for all your prayers and love things may have been different.
My spec. was worried that chemo and the fact that dad died of heart failure, heart problems were likely.
As always , we all think the worst but in my case unfounded this time. (got a grin from ear to ear), and now it has taken some pressure off Jen too.
Off to doc on friday for more bloods, then liver ultrasound so hoping that report will also be good.
On a lighter side guys;
I have affectionally been informed by an un-named contibutor that us ozzies are "monkey butt eaters".This statement is far from tha truth and I willingly/ without conviction admit that we do in the outback partake of "kangaroo butts"(stewed or made into soup)---NEVER BBQ'D!
Typical use is in "kangaroo tail soup"

For more humour and an evaluation to a recent post, you may read the following and ascertain the "said offender" to the "monkey butt remarks"--he he!

"bring me 2 pina-coladas
I want one for each hand,
lets set sail with Captain Morgan,
oh-and never leave dry land........"

luv n huggs to (((((((all)))) many , many thanks
kanga n Jen

    Dearest Kanga,

    Yipee!!! I have prayed hard and long for a healthy report for you and your heart. What a relief!!!

    I went with a friend of mine to have a 20 minute stress test yesterday, and her EKG showed some abnormalities so she has to have the nuclear one next Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday morning I have to have my one year follow-up colonoscopy, so I guess we will go with each other for support!

    I know your other results will be just fine. Let us know.

    Hugs to you and Jen,

    Kay

    Ahoy, Tin Man!

    Great news about your heart - guess that makes you "Fit as a fiddle, since you've got a real good heart" (or something like that from the Wizard of OZ... hey, if you can sing Garth, I can sing Judy!)

    Cheers, monkey-butt man!!
