AT LONG LAST AN UPDATE. APPT WITH DR HORBELT ON THURSDAY SEPT 17th.
REPORT ON CT SCAN WAS GOOD (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE 20 LBS OF FAT I SHOULD LOSE). CA-125 TUMOR MARKER ROSE AGAIN TO 252. HE EXCEPTED THIS AS A RESULT OF THE CHEMO DESTROYING CANCER CELLS. HAD ANOTHER ROUND OF ADRIAMIACIN. NOTED JUST A LITTLE NAUSEA.

NOW WITH THE MEDICAL STUFF OUT OF THE WAY, MORE IMPORTANT IS THE UPCOMING ROAD TRIP TO THE ALBUQUERQUE BALLOON FIESTA. MY UNCLE RAY WILL BE SERVING AS MY CHAUFFEUR AND VALET. WE PLAN TO LEAVE OCT 2nd. WE WILL MEET OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS THERE (AUNT CHARLOTTE AND UNCLE W A AND THEIR DAUGHTERS CHERYL AND SUSAN). IT SHOULD BE A GRAND TIME AND THE SCHEDULING COULDN'T BE MORE PERFECT. DR HORBELT HAS ORDERED MORE NEUPOGEN SHOTS. HE FIGURED A HEALTHY WHITE COUNT WHILE SPENDING TIME WITH 100,000 OF MY CLOSEST FRIENDS WOULD BE VERY BENEFICIAL.

MANY PICTURES AND A HOST A OF STORIES ARE SURE TO FOLLOW.

THE NEXT DR APPT/CHEMO IS PLANNED FOR TUESDAY, OCT 13th. HAVE ORDERS TO RECHECK LAB ON WEDNESDAY, OCT 7th.

ITS BLUEGRASS FESTIVAL TIME HERE IS WINFIELD. MOST OF THE LOCALS (MYSELF INCLUDED) ARE IN HIBERNATION. TOO MUCH LONG GRAY HAIR AND TIE-DYE AT THE GROCERY STORE.


TAKE CARE, TERESA
