Beautiful flowers.  Happy Anniversary!

 

@rafinmdGlad to hear you are safely home and enjoyed the reunion.

 

Busy morning with a 2 year old DGS who slept over. Good little guy, but BUSY!  Our DD was camping and her BIL's family joined them for the afternoon.  His Mom is visiting from Sao Paulo.  She had never walked thru a forest!

Just dropping in to thank you all for your prayers and good wishes for my friend battling cancer. They are working! Her oncologist told Cyn last week that the levels of the cancer causing “element” have dropped from 180 after surgery, down to 59 - after just three treatments!

 

If the drop continues, she may only need 8 chemo treatments instead of 12 - meaning she might be half way through the course of treatments. They will do another test this Thursday. 
 

We both shared some happy tears today.  Thank you all again for caring!

 

This is such good news, thanks for the update.

Hope that this continues and she will only need the 8 treatments.

How many hours is each of the chemo treatments?

Thanks for all the daily news, appreciate the photos of today's port, which we have not visited.

Like the idea of paying for someone else, have not done that for a while, need to start that again.

@smitty34877so sorry you and Tana experienced such rude behaviour, totally uncalled for. 

 @mamaofami Congratulations on your 62 nd Anniversary, beautiful flowers.

@rafinmd Roy, thanks for letting us know that you are safely home again.  Pleased that you were able to attend the reunion.

It's a lovely sunny day more spring flowers appearing. Temperature 16 C.

Stay safe, take care everyone.

Ann, @cat shepard that is such great news about your friend!  Tell her she has a great group of friends rooting for her. 
 

@HAL4NOW Great pictures!  Love the rainbow. Keep enjoying your cruise. 
 

@Cruising-alongWow, I didn’t realize that you leave so soon. You are going to have such a great time. BTW, I never sleep well before traveling either. Too much on my mind and excited for it to begin. 
 

Roy, @rafinmd Good to hear you are home. I hope you had a great time. 
 

Joy, @Seasick Sailor how are you?  I hope you are better. We miss you. 
 

Good evening all!

Thank you so much. 
 

The oncologist alternates drugs, so the infusion runs six hours on the odd weeks. On the even weeks, my friend stays overnight and the infusion runs for sixteen hours.
