Jo Jo, How are you?

Haven't seen any posts from you in awhile and was just wondering how you are doing. I'm thinking of you and you are always in my prayers.

Love, Kim in CA

Wink Hey Kim, great minds think alike! :-)

Hey Kim, you know what??? I was thinking about you yesterday or 2 days ago (where we recently had flooding in Napa, and a road there was closed -- was that yesterday or 2 days ago? Lost track of time!)

Very sweet of you to ask about me, thank you for your caring thoughts, Kim. :-) My li'l heart being touched now.... <hand over heart>

Been having pain & swelling on left shoulder (same side as supra nodes). On 600mg Motrin 3x daily, helping with pain a lot. Not sure, if just inflammation or cancer. 'Cause I just got off Decadron last week. Will find out soon, more likely next week. Remind me to send you an update! Other than that, doing okay so far.

Kim, I hope that your horses are in a good place! :-) When was your last ride?

We will have to get together soon! :-) Sometime after I find out what is my treatment plan.

Hey JoJo,

Glad to hear your hangin in there. I know it's sooo hard when we suspect something bad is going on, but don't have any definite answers. I have been nervously watching my tumor markers keep going up every 3 weeks when I get my Herceptin and labs done. I know it is too soon for anything to show up on scans, and since I don't have any symptoms I am hesitant to be exposed to anymore radiation just yet.

I have gotten spoiled being NED and just don't want it to end. I wish it would stop raining so I could do more than just pick up horse poop and actually get in a ride! I think the horses are starting to grow webbed feet!!

I am so looking forward to meeting up with you sometime soon. So you just keep me posted and let me know what works for you.

Keeping my fingers crossed for good news for you this week. Love Kim
