This Week 3/28 “2010” in the AN World
« on: March 28, 2010, 11:18:08 am »
Hi Jacqui (kiwi), congratulations as a new Posties, although Don (Kiwi Don) was kind enough to update us on your surgery, it was great to see you posting.  We are glad you are now on the other side, and we hope things continue to improve.

Congratulations (Maxana), our newest Toastie Postie.  We hope all went well, and that the treatment was a success.

This Week:

Monday Mark (Mark _UK_73) is having GK treatment.

Tuesday Anne (jazzfunkanne) in the UK is having BAHA surgery.

Also on Tuesday, not on the calendar, Sue (sues1953) will be having various tests done, and will find out the results of the MRI she had done last week.

Friday Susan (skamper) is having retrosigmoid surgery.

We will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers this week for successful and uncomplicated results/treatment/surgeries, and for speedy recoveries.

Last Wednesday Tara (TaraT) celebrated 1 year since her AN surgery.  Happy Anniversary Tara.

Happy Anniversary Thursday Anissa (anissa) as you, and Chris (vossman) celebrate 1 year since your AN surgery.

Happy Anniversary Phyl (ppearl214) on your 4 year CK treatment.  Your new photo looks great.  The piece you did on CyberKnife treatment was amazing, thank you.  For those that may have missed it, here’s the link.        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJJh3-j8eN4

We hope that those recovering will continue to see day-to-day improvements.

Have a great week everyone,

Rich & Scarlett

Thanks, Rich ~

Congratulations to our newest 'posties'!

My hopes and prayers for good results go out to Mark, Anne, and Susan on their respective procedures scheduled for this week.  I wish Sue well as she undergoes her tests and, of course, congratulations to Anissa, Tara, Chris and , (ta-da!) Phyl as they celebrate their respective 'anniversaries'. 

Jim
4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.
