Jan 8/09 - Two years down!

I celebrate today two years since my BC surgery. The tough stuff is over. Last night I had my first outpatient meeting with my oncologist, Dr. Tara Pickering. She went over my PET scan results and will monitor me every 6 months. Everything looks superduper. So - no tests, no treatment, no nothing! Yippee.
Tomorrow I leave for 3 days in the mountains at quaint little Baker Creek Cabins near Lake Louise. I will ski with about 36 other Norseman club friends. And party with them too.
I can now drink most things without my mouth talking back at me. High alcohol is still a problem, as is spicy and salty food. So no Thai pigouts or jars of olives, but everything in moderation I guess.
Our plans to spend the winter somewhere warm and south have been abandoned in this financial fallout. Hopefully we can get the RV out in spring and start to travel again.
This blog has served me well so I am going offline now to LIVE BIG. Starting yesterday I bought two pairs of shoes...Adios amigos..
