Ed and I will be leaving on September 20th from Miami Pier. We will be sailing in a large balcony room that will whisk us away to the Bahamas, San Juan, St. Thomas, St. Johns, and Grand Turk.

It is my gift to my Angel for the hard work he has done in the last 2 years. Last year during the Tykerb/Xeloda treatment we went to New Hampshire for his one year cancerversary. Being his 2nd cancerversary and not having any treatment at the moment, he deserves more.

We are driving down to Miami beginning on the 18th and I ask one more time:
If anyone is one is close to I-95 and wants to meet on the way down...e-mail me at my Yahoo address. We will be travelling early and will be in Miami a day early so we can make plans with you on the way down if you desire. So far I am planning on two visits with my friends here and I cannot wait for those hugs, they will be a nice addition to our vacation plans.

I want to mention again that we could have never made it this far without you all. Your support is supreme and means the world to us.

So here is to God, Mighty Oak, our Medical Team/Science and our Educated Extended Family here:

Thank You for being you, for showing us the light, for carrying us through the darkest of days, for the tender support and unconditional love you bring into our lives daily.>>Believe51

PS: The avatar is our ship and whenever I look at it I will remember what it took to get on board!!
