Life goes on!

[Esther]

I had a tough beginning to 2007, with gamma knife for a lesion in my frontal lobe on Mar 5, then surgery Mar 7 to remove a previously treated lesion in my cerebellum, and finally targeted fractionated rads for a new lesion on my brain stem in early April.

I'm recovering nicely now, and getting back to water-skiing, though it was a challenge after surgery, I had to work to get my forearms and hands strong enough to hold on to the water-ski rope.

We leave on Sept 1 for a scuba diving trip to Cancun, am really looking forward to it.

Back in early 2004 I was the first to inform the manufacturer of the port in my arm, that you can safely scuba dive to 100 ft below the surface with the port in place, and not harm it. I tested it out scuba diving in Belize. They did not know if you could dive with the port, they know now!

It feels good to reclaim my life, and continue to do the things I love.
