Thank you very much...I actually did! With all I'm going through recently (as in the last year) it was kind of nice to think I made it. I'm still fighting the cancer, but my infusion treatments are now done, and we're waiting for the surgeon to talk to the chemo doctor -- my recent CT scan said I have swollen lymph nodes behind my liver. Best long term remission possibility is another surgery before the end of the year to have them out, and then a monthly pill for who knows how long. I can see their point -- once the darned stuff gets in the lymph system, it's a whole new -- and worse -- battle.
I figure it's just a sudden pothole in the road to recovery (or what passes for it) that is the rest of my life. I feel fine and aside from the hair and fingernails falling out bit, apparently look great to people. I did have a great day, as my dad came down and visited me three weeks ago, and sent me $125 for my "new stereo" fund, while one good friend gave me $25 to spend any way I wanted while another gave me $40 to buy Season 1 and possibly 2 of the Castle DVDs...with the two together, I might be able to get Season 3 as well! Here's my mom: "I sense a Fillion marathon..." I'm thinking yeah, like you'll object...you like him too, you just won't admit it out loud...
Speaking of my mom, she went in to talk to my chiropractor's office assistant about paying some of the roughly $1000 bill I have for my birthday because I haven't been able to work to pay on it, and he heard her. She told me that she worked it out with him that she will take on half of the bill, as her own is zero, and he WROTE OFF the other half because he could afford it with the way his business is doing right now.
So that was my biggest and best surprise...plus that mom paid the $50 to get the power box on this computer fixed yesterday when my computer refused to start last Saturday...
Wow...
