Hi All,
The big news is that my bone scan is clean. Isn't that great news? I am beyond thrilled. I was sitting at the Crazy Flamingo on Marco Island with the college roommates (Monica, Trina and Emily) when I received a phone call from Nurse Kelly. She said, "How are you? You are going to be even better in about a minute." I thought that was a very cool way to tell me that the scan was clear. The ladies of ISU raised our glasses and celebrated the news!!!
I took the girls to the airport on Tuesday and picked-up Wayne. The time with my ladies was awesome. We laughed so hard. In fact a few times I laughed so hard it made my head hurt. The weather was fabulous when the girls were here and it has continued to be beautiful.
Since Saturday I have been to the spa, walked the beach, swam in the Gulf, had a few frozen cocktails, gone to Marco Movies, gone to Sweet Annie's (twice), read a book, read multiple magazines and I know Dr. G won't be thrilled with me, but he will have to agree that I look much better with a tan...almost healthy. The hair on my head is coming in, my eye lashes and eye brows are growing back and my fingers and toe nails are looking better everyday.
Wayne and I come back home on Sunday morning. When we cross the bridge and leave Marco we will pick-up all of our issues again. We head to the doctor Monday for Avastin and a doctor appointment.
However, while we are here our problems are on the other side of the bridge. This week started out great and will end great. It's nice to have a place to go where I feel protected from all of the tough things in life. Marco is without question my safe haven.
Cheers to safe havens!
Maria
