Hi Everybody.

I got home Monday from a wonderful visit with my son, Pete, and his beautiful family. The first picture is with Ella (7), Paige (15), Claire (11) and Milo (1). The bottom picture is Pete. Unfortunately Carol, Pete's wife, was camera shy that morning.
I also saw my brother, Jerry's mother, brother and sister-in-law. I had a nice visit with my niece and her mother who is also a survivor. She is coming up on five years. Congratulations Marilyn!
I already miss Pete and his family. I love you all so much.
Today I saw Dr. Lee's Nurse Practitioner. He is the radiation oncologist. She did a digital exam which, thankfully, didn't hurt. I guess that area is finally healed. She said she barely felt anything and that tumors can take several months to go away completely. They told me that before so I guess we are making progress. I then went to medical oncology office to have blood drawn and my port flushed. My hemoglobin is still a little low but nothing to worry about. On the 27th I will have another PET scan and then see Dr, Banghar on the 29th and get the results.  Hopefully at that time he will release me for six months or so. Then maybe we can escape for a couple of weeks during September.
Oh, I forgot to mention I saw Paige and Claire  in Willy Wonka The Musical and they were both terrific.  We also celebrated Ella's 7th birthday while I was there. She is a very grown up 7 year old.
That's all I have to report for now. Will keep everyone up to date when I know more.

Love and hugs, Linda
