Funny how life is like a rollercoaster. Three weeks ago I was laying in my recliner in agony and feeling like total doo-doo. Today I am planning an impromptu trip with friends to Cancun leaving in 2 weeks.

Leaving behind grey, cold, muck, slush, and the sadness of the Steelers losing the AFC Championship game. Going to a house right on the ocean, palm trees, white sands and azure blue waters. Incredible!!!

It is such a perfect way to say "Adios" to the past 9 months of the wretched cancer journey and "Ola" to the rest of my life.

Happy Happy Joy Joy!!!!
