Firemen

In a small Southern town there was a nativity scene that indicated great skill and talent in its creation.

One small feature bothered me though. The three wise men were wearing firemen's helmets. Totally unable to come up with a reason or explanation, I left.

At a "Quik Stop" on the edge of town, I asked the lady behind the counter about the helmets.

She exploded into a rage, yelling at me, "You darn Yankees never do read the Bible!"

I assured her that I did, but simply couldn't recall anything about firemen in the Bible.

She jerked her Bible from behind the counter and ruffled through some pages, and finally jabbed her finger at a particular passage.

Sticking it in my face she said, "See, it says right here, 'The three wise men came from afar.'"

    Yes I am only on Herceptin and my hair started to grow back in June and it is over an inch long now and very thick. Salt and Pepper. It has a little bit of a wave to it. I finished Taxol w/Herceptin July 23rd.

    Hey Margo
    Coool!!!!!! You mean in about 2 months you have over an inch????? I am so excited! I have my last taxol/herceptin on friday and I really havent noticed anything at all. I live in Wisconsin so I am NOT looking forward to 10 below 0 without hair to help keep me warm. You not only make me laugh, but give me hope as well.

    By the way, how is your heart doing with the herceptin? I had 1 more muga scan before I started the taxol/herceptin and so far so good, but I remember they were watching you.

    Smiles to you!!
