Mick and Barb this message is just for you, since you are still on your vacation and I can't get ahold of you and I keep missing your calls.  I am feeling great and ready for my surgery.  :-) .... I just talked to a friend that had the same surgery 5 yrs. ago and she said her surgery went very well, better than she expected.  She thought the chemo was awful and I had no problem with the chemo. She said she feels better now, than she ever has.  Everything has changed so much in the past 5 yrs. like everything else in the medical field.  I have no worries or problems just the being so tired gets to me but this to will pass. :-) .... I will have Bill blog you right as soon as he can after I'm done with the surgery.  I know it is hard you being so far away at this time but please remember I am in great hands.  Philip and Bill are giving me a blessing tonight so you have nothing to worry about....  (-:  Keep happy thoughts....(-:   We have been through a lot together so this is a piece of cake, chocolate of course....:-)
When you get back we will plan our reunion.... (-:
I love you both, your very favorite sister in the whole world, of course I am your only sister but if I wasn't I would still be your favorite.... :-)  Keep smiling, take lots of pictures and we will show them at the reunion.  Maybe we can take a vacation together some day.


We just got a call from the hospital and my surgery is at 12:30.  I was hoping for earlier but,....oh well.
