I know our dear Kerry is off to Houston today for tests. I think the tests are to determine the extent of benefit from her 6 weeks of radiation.
Kerry....come back to us smiling darlin. Jen and I want so much for things to work out well for you. It's 3.00am here now and you better believe that my insomnia has a lot to do with thinkin about you!
Kay, Jana and Wanda.....you gals aren't far from my thoughts either! Our love and prayers for you all.......huggs......the very sensitive kangathong and Jen.

    Thanks Ross. My doctor reported that I am doing "excellent". Hooray! My CEA dropped again, now it is 2.6 and he suspects that it will drop even more by the next visit. Blood work came out good, my liver enzymes have dropped tremendously back into the normal range. AND, best of all, NO MORE CHEMO, at least for a while.

    He said my body is still healing from 30 radiation treatments and it appears the those nasty cells are still dying.

    Anyway I feel wonderful with this news.

    Thanks so much for your thoughts and prayers. Now GET SOME SLEEP.... you will need your energy for Austin.

    Jana, lunch yesterday did me so much good as well. You were in my prayers first thing this morning. I will check with you in a couple of days, if I don't hear from you. And I did see lots of Bluebonnets, Indian Paintbrush, Buttercups and many other wildflowers on my drive home. Just beautiful. I took some photos to share with some folks.

    Thanks everyone for all your prayers. I go for a CAT scan in May - that will tell the real story, but for now Carpe Diem.
