The Mega Toast on New Year's Eve........
« on: December 13, 2006, 06:32:16 pm »
 ;D

Hello Everyone,


I've been lurking and hoping the porn and spam will be taken care of properly.  I've been sending some support to those who need it, in private email.  (or any data I might have to share of benefit)

My idea is to have a *GIANT* toasting.........where all the people of 06' that had tumors taken care of, raise their glass in a GIANT FORUM TOAST-OUT!  (AROUND THE GLOBE at the end of the year.......I know the time is so different, here and there)

I will raise my glass with the rest of you people who want to "ring-out" the old and in with the new, 07' by having their AN removed this year.  (one way or another....Cyber, Gamma, big surgery, whatever!)

I'm going for it........I can't wait!  We bought some unblended scotch today and some soda.  It will be a special New Year's Eve, this year.........A REAL BIGGIE!  I will only have one glass of it but, it will be a strong one.  Now, I don't wish to encourage bad behavior, just partake in a glass of vino or your favorite adult beverage.

CrazyCat........no KoolAid here........Grin........Palace

PS Don't worry.......I don't want to know who the oldest person on the list, is; for that matter, it could be me!   :P

Palace,

Great idea.

Ok, CK first week of April, 2006.  Received confirmation on Dec 4 that the radio-surgery is starting to do it's thing (the booger is beginning to die!).... and a thrilling holiday present for me.

So... (jcinma, are you listening hun?), I will raise my glass on NYE to those that have endured so much this past year... and to those "posties" that remain here to cheer the newbies along..... with a Belvedere (or Gray Goose) martini, shaken/not stirred, straight up with 4 extra pimento-filled olives!

Wishing you all a terrific holiday season!

Cheers:


Vicki and Lorenzo.....and all the others past, up to present.......ABSOLUTELY, raise you glass with the group. 

We might start a list of treatment patients after the first of the year going back in time, listing each year with every person having TX in each year.  It would be interesting but, would take some time to do that.  A person from each of those years might begin their own list once 2006 is completed.  We could compact all of it up to date for each year, to have on record.  (the data would be more easily read if recorded in "stats" like we are doing for 2006)  This would incorporate people of this forum.  Of course, we realize there are more people around the world who had Acoustic Neuroma treatments but, not recorded on the list.  *Note: this is just people on the forum that we are recording, for interest sake.  (and their type of treatment for each year)

Yes, everyone join in on the "toasting out" of another year of AN's that got removed or "blasted."   ;D



Everyone is welcome to join in on the 12/31 "Mega-Toast" of their choice of adult beverage....or plain safe-drinks..........AND NATURALLY WE ALL KNOW, "no drinking and driving!"   :-*



Have fun,
