I'm doing fine!
Carla,
I'm doing just fine, thank you for thinking of me!
2013 was a stressful year for me, personally and professionally, but physically, I'm healthy!
My doctors don't appear to be worried about my health so that's a blessing. My CA125 has gone up from 12 this time last year to 30 last week. It's been going up about 2 points every 6 weeks. But, like I said, it's within normal range, I have no symptoms and my doctors arent' worried (GynOnc, Radiation Onc, I see Medical Onc. on the 30th).
I look at it this way,if it keeps going up 2 pts every six weeks gives me 18 weeks before it's over 35, that's another 4 1/2 months with hair!
How have you been?

Glad you're doing well. I know what you mean about the hair. I am doing well. After ten months of stable disease, mid December scans showed worsening in the abdominal area. I am currently on toptoecan. I have found it very easy to tolerate. I will have scans in a few weeks to see if this is working. The cancer all remains in lymph nodes. Which, my dr. agress that can be a positive because it isn't in any vital organs.
I am teaching part time with a company called Computer Explorers. We teach Tech Tot classes to 2 yr. olds thru K. This is only in private schools. Three children in a thirty minute class. It's so much fun. We teach tech skills and K and 1st grade readiness skills. We are only in private schools and private day cares. For ten weeks on Mon and Wed. I help conduct lego workshops for grades 1-4. We even do robiotic legos. It's a fun job, getting paid to play with kids.
Hope you continue to do well.
