Won and done!

From now on, I'm not reading all the posts before I reply. Paula made my post for me (except it's a mug of Darjeeling), so now I'll have to think of something else....

I would say that I'm stomping my feet and demanding a miracle, except that I don't think you need one. I believe with all my heart that you will sail through your MRI and be true to your name from now on. Hold that thought. I will too.

Nov 8 is my Dh's Bday, and good things seem to always happen on that day. I am a praying type so that's a double whammy.
Be Blessed !

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Thanks everybody!
I'll definitely keep you posted. But really, if the scans come back clear (old mets shrinking...and no new mets around) even you ladies down under will hear the screaming and jumping for joy!

And speaking of ladies from down under...Marie, I'm sorry to hear about your friends loss...and selfishly, I'm even sorrier that your trip to the States had to be put on hold. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that a new chance pops up soon!

Thanks again everyone...keep those prayers and good vibes coming...they help! I know they do!
Love and hugs
Denise

Yea! First Steph, now you!!!!!! This is like medicine for us all! So glad to hear the good report. You are very special to this board, Denise. We need you to continue with good news and a longggggggg slow dance with NED!

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Laurel...your heartfelt joy brings a tear to my eye. Thank you my friend. But the celebration is a few days early...my scans aren't until the 8th.

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Oh no!!!!!! I thought you had posted good news and it was all over. Dang!

Do you remember the Munsters, a 60s TV show? Herman Munster would jump up and down when he was frustrated saying, "darn, darn, DARN!!!!" Well, let me just say, DARN, DARN, DARN! lol.

So ok. Here's the deal. You save my celebrating and good wishes for 8 more days! See my words as a prophetic expression of what is to come! Believe.

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

You got it, Denise. I'm glad I checked in tonight, hearing Steph's news was uplifting and I'm expecting a similar report from you in a few days!

Hugs,

Mel

Denise,
One of Kris' favorite sayings was "You're gonna be good!" And YOU are gonna be good.
With love

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Can't come soon enough. I feel like a 5 year old the week before Christmas.

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

I love you guys! You always make me smile!

I'm experiencing my first taste of scanxiety tonight.
Physically, I feel really good...
so I know I shouldn't be worrying...
But, I was feeling pretty good the last time they scanned my brain too...
and as you may recall...
they found not one, but two lesions on that memorable day!

I'm reeeeaaaaalllly hoping for good news tomorrow, but...
I also hope that if any disappointing news comes my way, I have the grace, and the faith to handle it...preferably without crying in front of "strangers".

I know this will shock some of you...but I'm a bit of a control freak. :)

I HATE losing control of my tear ducts in public.
Don't get me wrong.
I like a good cry as much as the next guy...
but on my terms...
in the car...
in the bathtub...
over a big dish of ice cream...
NOT in a medical facility!

I'll keep you posted.
Denise

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Just hope you are far enough out of that blankety-blank nor'ester's path that there will be no hitches for this checkup!

Yes, You Are Gonna Be Good.

Re: First Post-Gamma-MRI next week
 

Denise, I seriously am gonna get a bottle of champagne, and I recommend everyone here do the same today...alcoholic or non alcoholic champagne...and wait for your post.
I already know the results will be awesome. Let's all toast Denise the second she posts this aft.

Remember that size (of mets shrinkage) doesn't matter at this point. Please keep in mind what Jackie said, that the scan won't differentiate between necrosis and live cells so if it hasn't shrunk wildly, that doesn't mean that once the necrosis is gone it won't be much smaller.

We are with you in a way nobody else can be.
