Anno's 80th Birthday Today

This wasn't exactly what we planned for Mom's 80th birthday: in the hospital oncology ward hooked up to a bunch of chemo drugs! However, we are grateful that she has done so well with the treatment, that this Friday will end the six rounds of chemo, and that the scan described below showed such good results.

I'm going to the hospital this morning to help her send out birthday greetings to many that she has email addresses for. Hopefully, people will reply by email generating a virtual birthday party! Comments posted on this blog using the link below this post will be forwarded to her as well.

Thanks again for all the support, prayers and good wishes.

Pet CT scan appears clear!

Whew!
Mom is doing great. She is done with #5 and only has one more Chemo to go! Her PET CT scan did not show any significant areas of active cancer! She golfed 9 holes on Tuesday morning May 27th and has another 9 booked in a week. She is feeling really well and filling her social calendar with bridge and dinners and plans to continue taking the exercise classes at her home. Her friend Barb's big birthday party is Saturday the 21st for Barb's 80th and she is looking forward to being their. Anno will be in for Chemo on her 80th birthday the 24th - but then she's done!

Thank you again for all your wonderful prayers, cards, thoughts and love.
