big news: coming soon

So I will have my next MRI on tuesday, and this one is to see if I need to stay on or do another round of chemo.  Or if I can go into the monitoring stage.  Monitoring does not mean I am cured, it just means that Snarla is asleep still.  I have no doubt that she will be roused into a waking state at some point, however I have no doubt that the point will be several years from now.  Basically I have done the hardest part.

Mike found a blog on tumblr.com called A lie of the mind.  She has a tumor on her right frontal lobe and just recently had surgery.  I really want to contact her, however she obviously does not want anyone she doesn't know contacting her.  We are all in tumorland. 
Anyway I have been doing very well except for the infrequent head rushes they make me nervous.  But I have been assured by Dr. Fink that Snarla is sleeping. 
I have found myself becoming obsessed with Diablo II,  much to my husbands chagrin. 
We are in Kingwood Texas at my sisters' house. They have a HUGE yard that the dogs run around in and wear themselves out.  Hopefully they will sleep all the way home.  I am going to give them 5 pot pills each.  Don't fret, I am not really drugging the dogs,  the "pills" are simply Pet Ease treats with chamomile.

Amy made us an awesome Easter Basket and this morning I found out that Mike had NEVER had a little Debbie.  He tried one and Loved it.

Regardless of what the news is I will post it.  I have a very busy day on thursday 9am Results 1215 haircut 400 woman wellness exam.  I have confidence the news will be good, with only a niggle of a tickle of doubt at the back of my bruised 3/4 brain.  LOL

Recently I have come to find out that way more people than I realized are reading this.  I am nothing special, I just did what I had to do to stay alive.  I am keeping a record of it so in a few years when the block is firm and I cannot remember any of this experience I can go back and remind myself.  Some say Let a sleeping dog lie, I say poke him with a stick and face the consequences.  I am not sure why I made it, but I assume that I have a purpose greater than myself.  That is why we (brain tumor peeps) make it through the ordeal of surgery and recovery alive and relatively unscathed. 

 Tata for now....
