Sending lots of sunshine from Texas to Lisa!
Hi Lisa Girl!
I just took my little puppies for a walk around the RV park here in San Antonio and got some exercise for me and you! I'm here a day early to have treatment and appt. with my onc. tomorrow. He's at the Breast Cancer Symposium today. CTRC is one of the 2 sponsors! I tried to sneak in to meet the Mighty Her2 Board Gang, but they caught me and nicely threw me out! Oh well, they are there learning and influencing for us! And my Dr. K is there to find that magical news for some of us San Antonio fighters!
I lived in Wyoming for 7 years and am picturing you with crispy weather and a great view! I think I even saw an elk or 2!
Most of all I'm believing with all my heart that you're getting the much needed rest your body deserves! What a machine it has been. It's fought in all kinds of weather and on all battle fields. A little vacation will be just the thing it needs!
Lots of love and the power of faith coming to you from my little RV home here in Texas.
