BLOOD WORK

Well here it is, a little over a week since i gave my blood and i finally called the oncologists office to get the word. And the word is everything came back within range and my tumor markers are a 4. Now if you are like me you might be thinking whats so great about a 4 it should be 0 BUT since the range for tumor markers is up to 35 i will take the 4 and barrel on till August when i have to donate the blood again!! So be happy for me cuz i am happy for me :)

On another note i went to the dentist yesterday and found out i will need a root canal...hmmm not fun but it is what it is and i will plug on through. Thank heavens for dental insurance. All kidding aside in the grand scheme of things it isnt a big deal - thats what i say now i will write once its over. Originally she wanted to do it next thursday but its my anniversary so i pushed it out till after the weekend. I mean really i cant be in pain on my anniversary since i had chemo the day beffore my birthday so this one is mine!!

Today was the last day of school for the kids and now it is time for camp. Monday they start a mini camp then they actually start day camp on the 11th of June. I think they are very excited so we shall see.

Anyway thats it for now.

Love to all,
Mich

Alright i know its been a while but honestly nothing very exciting is happening! life is going on and i feel pretty good but i will try to give you something exciting.........

Jordanas birthday party.......was a blast she loved it and i have provided some photos. it was at a new place called "sweet and sassy" and i must say the parrty was a huge success.

GOL P4L gala - i went to new york for our annual gala which went very well. it was 3 fun filled nights and 4 days in the big city....my roomate was barby and as always we had alot of laffs!!

Today i went to the doctors for my 3 month post chemo visit, she said i looked great and they took 4 vials of blood asked a bunch of questions and then she sent me to get my port flushed which i must say was the first time i didnt feel a thing (imagine after everything i finally figured out where to put the emla cream!!!)! today is also jeffs 42nd birthday but i must say we arent doing anything as this is what he wants....can u say miserable!

This weekend is our long weekend and we arent doing to much.....jordana is going to have her last brownie meeting for the year....then on saturday she has funky fish which is where she will go snorkeling and wake boarding. Justin is counting down the days till the end of school which btw is next thursday and then the following monday they start camp.

last weekend we went out as a family (minus jeff as he wasnt feeling well and plus jay cuz we needed a seat filler) for dinner to celebrate my dads 65th birthday, it was ENTERTAINING to say the least and a good time was had by most!

Overall life is treating me very well and i feel great and i will try to update a little more frequently but honestly my life is BORING!

Anyhow love to all and i will write again soon.

love,
mich
