Scan results!

WHOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!

All GREAT news! All clear scans--bone scan, ct scan, mri, xray--I had the whole workup! Tumor markers are at an all time LOW of 42 :)! The biopsy of the thyroid came back NEGATIVE! I had the port put in Wednesday and was able to get the new "power port" where they can do blood draws from it as well as all the injections for the scans. No more getting poked in the arms or feet. When they were trying to find a good vein to start the iv for the surgery, they were looking to put it in my neck. Ummm, no thanks. Thank God for the port now!
So, we don't have to go back for 3 months! YAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you all SOOOOOOOOOO much for all the prayers! God is so good!

Basketball

I can't believe basketball is almost over! Larson had such a fun time playing. This was his first year doing it and like other sports, he really put his heart and soul into it. He won some, he lost some, but had fun every game!

Kindle, Kindle

I *puffy heart* LOVE my Kindle!

Happy New Year!

I am glad to be starting a fresh, new year.
We head back to Houston around the last week in January (the 24th). I have my 1 year, 3 month scans. I will also go into surgery and have a port placed. My doctor finally agreed. I am just getting tired of them trying to access a vein with no success here at crmc.

But after all that "fun" is over, I am going to get some "me" time with a bunch of area photographers for a fun filled weekend of shooting, playing and sharing at Big Cedar in Branson in February. I am really looking foreward to that. We have several of their cabins reserved. I have never stayed at Big Cedar before, but I hear it is beautiful!

In February, Kevin, the kids and I are going to see Brian Regan in concert. He has got to be the most hilarious comedian of all time!

Then, in March for Spring break, I am taking the kids to California to visit with my family. We have several things planned to do there, like go the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles.

So, lots to look foreward to in 2009!
I want to wish everyone a happy, healthy and safe new year!
