Hi All,

I just wanted to give everyone an update. We are doing very well Al has gained a little over 2 pounds in a week and is getting stronger by the day!! We go back to the surgeon on
Oct.1st Al does not need another PET scan since he had one just a few weeks ago and as you know everything is shrinking.

The Dr.s have assured me that during this time of rest from chemo Al does not have to worry about any further growth of the primary tumor or the lymph nodes. I know this because I called to make sure and Dr. Luketich said not likely and he doesn't like surprises during surgery. So life here in Pittsburgh is kind of NORMAL AS NORMAL CAN BE IN THIS SITUATION.

Lori Thanks for the panty order, and the shoes I know that William will send them in time for the big day!

I will let everyone know what happens on the First.
May God Bless and Keep everyone!!!!

Kath

    YOUR WELCOME
    Glad i could help, keep me posted on things, but most of all don't forget the BGP on the 1st and remember you will receive them in time from the marshall's to get them on before the appt.

    William be sure and pack a pair of MOE"S shoes for her also. One size fits all.

    Congrats and good luck

    Good News - Weight On!
    Kathy and Al

    That's great news with a very high level of confidence from your doctor! Looks to me like your plan worked well even through adversity.

    All my very best

    Big Girl/boy panties!!
    Lori,

    really you could market these!---we all need a pair and frequently need NEW ones---and then want to share a pair with others that we think could benefit.... I think they should have a smiley face on them because of your all's (and I am not even truly southern!) POSITIVE attitude!

    Hey Lor,

    I don't know
    I don't know if I could market them or not, I wouldn't even know where to begin. I really started this as just a funny but I think everyone has liked the response we get. I really enjoy it all. I wish you the best

    maybe
    I don't know Kath, I don't even or wouldn't know even where to begin, but it could give me extra money i see? HMM glad i have made such a hit with this saying. If we market those we have to market kittens dancing shoes.

    Love and hugs
