I know.....it's weird but yes!!! Canadian Thanksgiving is this weekend!!! roll out the pumpkin pies.....if we waited for the USA date we would be under 10 feet of snow.....just kidding.....

I love this holiday...so much to be grateful for when you are a cancer warrior.....hold my hand my friends.....(still waiting for this MRI result) but now it is 5:30 on Friday and who is going to call now? hopefully no one so I am moving to the kitchen for a glass of red wine and stir frying some fresh veg and sending love to all Canucks......Happy Thanksgiving.....

 

late Wed afternoon....so dear friends....all is well....scan was clear and cea was at 2. I cannot believe the depth of exhaustion that I feel.....how we must hold ourselves in a state of complete tension waiting for these tests. So I hopefully can send some hope to the stage 4s and to our long term survivors.....first diagnosis in 2005....seem to be NED for five years.....

having a little snooze now.....love to all ....mags

    Love You Too, Mags

    Have a beautiful Turkey Day. Mine here in the States in November will be a bit somber, but perhaps a good time for remembering all the previous ones. Our "Head Chef" will be watching from above saying "NO, NO, That's not how you do it!"  LOL

    Luv,

    G'day Mags
    I am sure the turkeys would be happier if it was pumpkin pie day. Hope you get good results from the mri . Have a great holiday with family. I have just come out of hospital. Have a bad flu. Bloods showed troponin which usually means heart damage. Trying to get well enough to have a scope later this month. Hugs to you from downunder... Ron.

    Mags, enjoy your

    Mags, enjoy your Thanksgiving. It has always been my favorite holiday, in act I am county down the weeks. I didn't know you had your MRI. I will keep you in my prayers. Mine is on the 29th (first day of bascetball season) and I get the results on the 31st (Halloween, 8 year aniversery of my colectomy). These dates are good signs to me, and yes cancer has made me superstious.
