Thanks Rich, Anita and Louise......

Rich, I did break down and call my oncologist's office and they are in the process of setting up an appointment for a brain MRI for me...YIKES!!! Not sure what to think....of course I want to say.....it will all be fine....but honestly, I'm a realist, and I don't know that.

Anita, nope....it isn't an age thing with me. I don't worry about things like age and don't mind getting older. As a matter of fact I enjoy getting older I think it's a combination of that 6 month check up coming up (always a friendly reminder of what we've gone through) and these head issues and not wanting to "tell" but knowing I need too.

Louise........yes, it is our reality - our world - as it were. No matter how hard we try to stay positive and try not to let the "what ifs" get to us.....we are human and at times it all just gets the best of us.

Thanks for your support you guys...it means a lot to me.

MJ
