Hurray, I just got some good news and can't wait to share! My highest CEA was 111, the results from 2 weeks ago is 60!! More than 45% drop in a week!!! I won't get yesterday's results for a few days... but I feel GREAT (Tony Tiger style).

Yesterday I went to see the doc, get result and then get chemo. I was sooo happy with the results!! I got home, walked the dogs, made a gourmet dinner, and watched TV; Heroes - great theme! :)

I now feel so confident it is all working. I am not so terrified for my next scan 12/11. HURRAY!

Hope all of you are getting good news and feeling strong. My in-laws are coming tomorrow to "take care" of me. We are going bird watching this weekend at South Padre Island.. I can't wait.

Love to all, jana

    Jana -

    I got your e-mail, but couldn't respond from my Treo. I can log into CSN at work, but not hotmail (hmmm...)

    Anyway, I am SO HAPPY FOR YOU! Woo-Hoo, girl!! - or should I say a big ole texas Yeeeee-Haaaaw!

    You just keep up the good work and we will see you in Nashville in October! Have fun birdwatching down on SPI. Just watch out for the square grouper that tend to wash-up down there.

    Congrats!

    - Bob
