    How

    how was your trip?

    Thanks for asking

    Trip was amazing! I saw more people than I realized I know! It was humbling and emotional at times. I am so fortunate to have so many wonderful people in my life. It was truly a huge silver lining to the dark cloud of cancer. I can't put into words how touched I was by the warmth, caring, and love I felt from so many friends and family members. It's six months later, and I'm still blown away. And overall  I held up pretty well. There were a couple of days where I felt crappy,  but overall, it was an amazing trip. One of the highlights of my 54 years on this planet.

    Still here!

    I haven't logged on in a while. Been so busy with school and work. It'll be one year this month since I had my surgery and I found out this week I'm pregnant with my first child at 41! I'm nervous and excited and figured if I can make it through a nephrectomy I can do anything :) Glad to see so many familiar names still on here too. Kiss Hope everyone is doing well!

    You have to re-check in every week.

    If you have told the computer to remember you with the password, it will for that calendar week.  And on Monday, it starts over.  But it shouldn't make you re-do your bio page.  Contact CSN if you are still having problems.

    I'm (back) here

    Shucks, I missed out on all the excitement associated with the crash. 

    I'm 2 years and 4 months post-neph. Still getting visits from Uncle Ned. I've graduated to once a year scans. 

    I'm working on downsizing, might do some traveling. You know the t-shirt Fox (RIP) wore in his photo? It's from Motorcycle Week in Laconia, New Hampshire. There's a hill west of Laconia, with beautiful views of Lake Winnipesauke and the main road to Laconia. I've been doing some traveling in my quiet times, meditating on that view (my stepfather is buried near there, so I know the area a bit). It's quite lovely and peaceful.

    Son in law still here :-)

    My SIL John was dx'ed three years ago with Stage IV, grade 4, 60% sarcomatoid RCC (which is really not good) but has now been NED for a full year after immunotheraphy.  That's the great news...the not-so great news is that the intense SBRT radiation of a tumor near his trachea about 18 months ago apparently did major tissue damage to the trachea tissue and he has almost no air transfer without having to be temporarily dilated (twice now) by balloon during bronchoscopies.  The docs are scratching their collective heads as to how to deal with this...resection, transplant, or what.  They've never seen this kind of situation before.

    So, a case of no evidence of cancer for a full year after end of treatment (yea!!!), but how do we deal with the radiation 'side effect'.  One thing at a time I guess.
