where's the 'this wk in the "CREATIVE ADJECTIVE INSERTED HERE" world of AN?
« on: May 25, 2009, 07:31:53 pm »
Am I missing something? I didn't know if the week to come's summary was now in a different place.
Is LADavd ok?
Will Adrienne's surgery happen (hopefully will)? Should be tomorrow I think. I remember we were hoping that she wouldn't be moved to a later date.

Anyone else wondering where this topic is this week!? I guess I'm mainly concerned about LADavid because he gets these out so quickly.

It has happened once or twice before, so I wouldn't worry too much about David until we here something.

Meanwhile, I think you have started the topic for this week. Your title is certainly creative. :)

A quick check of the calendar shows Adrienne having surgery tomorrow in Vancouver with Drs. Akagami and Westerberg; and Brenda (Teff) having a translab at Barrows on Thursday. Plus Wednesday is Ernie's birthday. Hopefully David will be along soon.

Good luck today Adrienne and good luck tomorrow to Brendsa -- I'm wishing you both uncomplicated and speedy recoveries.

great job Steve and thanks.  Hoping that whereever LADavid is, he's had a terrific holiday weekend and enjoying some "insert creative adjective here" much needed time off.

Wishing Adrienne and Brenda wellness and speedy recoveries this week... and as for Ern... I mean JAN's burpday....... well, let the harrassing begin! :D

Hey, if I'm the JAN in question, just let me say I'm old enough without 2 birthdays each year.

Besides, I've had my share of harrassment from the Forum lately.  Thank you very much!!  ;)

Good luck to Adrienne and Brenda.  Godspeed.

And, oh yea, happy 60th Ernie!  ;D

Although David does us all a great service with his weekly, wryly named updates, a click on the 'AN Treatment Calendar' - http://my.calendars.net/AN_Treatments will give anyone interested the same information.

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

oh but the adjectives and meanings and updates are too much fun. plus i always forget where to find the calendar... i always go on steve's or david's posts to look at their signature to find it.

Anyway,
Happy Birthday, Ernie! (I'm almost too late).

I look forward to hearing how Adrienne's surgery has gone -  hope you're doing well (as can be expected with the F3D thing) and can post soon.

Am praying all goes well with Brenda's surgery tomorrow.

Have a good rest of the week, everyone.

Maybe one of our fine moderators could put a sticky topic at the top of the AN Community forum such as "Find ANA Calendar here" pointing to the calendar web site? Then it would be easy for any of us to find.

we ARE mighty fine, aren't we?  ;D

We can't actually do the "sticky" but can request as such to the fine folks that host this site...... will see what can be done.

Yes, you are indeed mighty fine.

Although "fine" is such a weak adjective now that I think about it. I should have come up with something better . . . phenomenal, stupendous, indefatigable or the like.

LOL Sara! Keep that up and you all will need hat pins to pop all the Moderator's egos so we can get through doorways! :)

Thank you! :)

I also enjoy David’s calendar updates :)

Like you Keri, I go to Steve or David's posts to find the AN calendar link.

Not to take anything away from anyone but, I have an idea that might help.

Would it be okay if more people had the link in their “signatures� for greater exposure?

I added it to mine, and tried it to make sure that it works.  If this is a no no, I will remove it.

Adding a calendar link to the signature sounds like a good idea to me.  I'll add it to mine if one of our illustrious moderators gives the OK.
