Tri for the Cure
Hi,
I rarely post, but read postings quite often. I am competing in the "tri for the cure" this weekend in Denver. I am part of a relay team. I will do the swim, and 2 of my friends will bike and run. The money, of course, supports the Komen foundation. My plans are to "scope it out" this time and next year do the triathlon alone in the survivor category.
Also, I am having a repeat MRI of my spine on Monday. I was having (and still am) back pain. My oncologist ordered MRIs from my cervical area to my lumbar area. There was a suspicious lumbar vertebra that needs to be evaluated again. The first MRIs were 3 months ago. I am nervous! My only child, Sarah, graduated from high school in May and will be attending Tulane Univ in New Orleans. We are leaving on Aug 16th to drive Sarah to NO. I don't want my health to interfere with Sarah's plans.
Karen
