Liz, would be great to have you all join us.  Will note you as "tentative" but will need "confirmation" as I have to give the restaurant a confirm head count. Please keep me posted. :)

Theresa, not only is it not too late, but making sure you get a seat as close to the dessert table as possible! :)  Hit me later! xoxoox

To my fellow NE ANA'ers, I won't be making the April 18th brunch and I am so sorry.  I was just invited to a close co-workers baby shower and it would be awkward not to be there (she is our secretary), I cannot believe the only Sunday that I have something else to do..........such a dilemma ......I will miss you all very much, I do love these get togethers.  I do have my yearly MRI and Dr. McKenna follow up on April 12th, I will keep you posted.
Diagnosed 6/2008
Right AN 2cmx8x9
Sub-Occipital at Mass General with Martusa and McKenna on 5/31/11
Right SSD, very little taste
I think I will make it!
