Hi Guys!!!

Just wanted to tell you the good news. 2years 8months out!!!!

I am still on Herceptin. Its going fine.

I am working full time. Having a little trouble standing up straight and a little restricted mobility. I will have my first hip replacement in Janurary. Then the other next fall.

I have been working really hard to get my house ready to sell. I will move into my condo around Christmas.Then unpack and have a hip replacement.

All in all ..... things are good.

I check in on you guys all the time and just wanted to let you know you are always in my thoughts and prayers.

Your Fighting teammate,
Alice

Good to hear from you. Good luck with the hip replacements. I had one in 2004 after an accident.
Stay well.

Great to hear from you. Good luck with all of the packing and selling your house. I hope your hip isn't causing you too much pain. I have an Uncle who has had both hips replaced and he swears that he can move better than ever!

Alice,
It's so nice to hear from you! That is wonderful to hear your doing so well. Once you get your hips fixed you will feel almost like a new person. I know how painful they can get. I'm happy to hear your getting all the packing and moving out of the way now so you can just focus on your hip replacement and recovery afterwards. When you have a chance...check in on us and let us know how your doing. You take good care of yourself. :)
