I was starting to wonder too. Delighted to hear that you are still you, so to speak. If it's turbans you need, then turbans it shall be!

Best wishes for continued improvements, enjoy your spring, and keep those spirits up.

Kathy~
So great to hear from you and glad you can enjoy a few days of sunshine before the next round.  I'm praying that this one won't be so bad...but your daughter had some very wise words!!  I KNOW that God has MIGHTY things in store for you!!

Keep up that great attitude - I'm a BIG believer in good attitude!   ;)

Hey, Kathy!  Thanks for the update and SO glad to hear that you're doing ok despite things!  You're right, all you can really do is take care of yourself and take what comes with as positive an attitude as possible - and you are certainly doing that!  You're just awesome,

Kathy,

I've been thinking about you and  am so glad to hear that you are feeling better.  Hopefully the rest of the chemo won't be too bad.  I'm also glad to hear that  your infection seems o be gone once and for all.  You are always in my thoughts and prayers.

Best wishes,
Wendy

I, too, am so happy you are doing so well.  I think of you often, and I'm delighted there is light at the end of this long tunnel you've been in.  These bad things that have been attacking you have no idea who they are dealing with.  They don't have a chance.
