Tricia & Hermiracles
Speaking of people we haven't heard from for a while, has anyone heard from TriciaK (the sweet lady that has been battling cancer for 20+ years) or Hermiracles lately?

Yes I remember Hermiracles posting not too long ago...although I am still worried about her because she had alot on her plate to deal with. I always keep her in my prayers.
As for TricaK I too was going to start a thread last wk asking about here? She last posted on 9-15-08...& last lurked on the 16th. She did mention that she is only able to check in here about once per wk...but 3 months is a long time for Tricia. I so hope & pray they are both ok.
If either of you wonderful ladies read this...please let us know how your doing? You know how we worry when we don't hear from someone. Keeping you both in my prayers.

TriciaK check'in
I appreciate so much that you are thinking of me! My birthday buddy, Nitewind, even sent me a private email. (I hope you received my reply,Nitewind! Let me know if it got lost in cyberspace!)
It seems that I need to check in more often because I am having trouble posting. My user name and password seem not to be working. But I'll try again and see what happens.
I have been busy working on a picture storybook of my mother and her ancestors, for my children, grands and greats, and just finished publishing it for Christmas gifting. I also had two weeks of flu plus have been getting treatment for some serious back pain---a little scary since the BC mets were in my spine in 1990.
That you have been thinking of me right now shows how sensitive and in tune you all are, as tomorrow is my 79th birthday, and the next day is my 6-months BC check-up, including bllod tests and PET scan. I promise I will post the results as soon as I have them! Thank you so much for thinking of me! Hugs, Tricia

Hi Tricia, It's so nice to hear from you. Putting together a story book for your large family was a wonderful idea and one they will so appreciate. 
I am so sorry to hear about your back pain. Lets hope the back pain is from anything but what your thinking. With the flu maybe you were coughing too much that might of caused the back pain? Whatever it is I hope they get to the bottom of it soon and can relieve the pain for you.
Here's to you having a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY Tricia...with many more to follow.
Please keep us updated when you find something out. I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Thanks a million for checking in with us...I think of you often...your such an inspiration and just one amazing lady.
Chelee
