in Kidney Cancer #1

We call ourselves the Bakery Family, because that's where we see one another...or all at the same time.  If one is there, the next one joins in.

Kathy had good results on her follow up CT scan for lung cancer treatment, which she has been undergoing for a year.

Letha (age 84) had skin cancers on her scalp removed a week ago. All but one had clear edges and she'll have that one expanded in a week or so.  She is fabulous for her age.  Hope I do so well.

And I got really blah results on my 6 mo. check and labs.  Nothing out of the ordinary and a 43 on my eGFR, which is a bit above normal for me.  The absolute highest it has ever been in 47 in the past 10 years.  So all of you out there who freak when you read what you should have and what your results are, remember that they are based upon 2 kidneys and your age.  eGFR drops as you get older, anyway.  Have a CT in September and just keep doing what I'm doing.

Good wishes to all.

    Hey... Boring can be good

    I would go back to boring in a heartbeat.  Staying still is okay too.  Enjoy yourself Donna...
