    Keeping good thoughts for you, Jo. I feel so bad you have had this latest setback... Thank you, Sherry, for the updates.  

    Janis, I'll be in your big pocket Monday, you can be sure. And I am so happy to hear you like your new gyno! That is a good thing & I imagine will have a calming influence on you as you enter surgery.

    Sherryc, janis, & lisamarie, all of you can expect to feel a heavy weight in your pocket on Monday (and that is just me!)  Ahahaha!  I'm sure the others will all be there to support you in the various procedures.  We still have jo to think about, as she recovers.  Too bad about the hematoma, but that was really quick to get back into surgery to take care of it.

    rajkumari, I don't have a clue about the foot problem.  Sorry you are having discomfort.  Do you have doctors just for feet there?  We have podiatrists here, and that is where we would go for something like you are describing.  Hope you can avoid surgery.

    So very happy to hear that Jo is better and recovering. Jo still have you in my prayers,



    Everyone that maybe having surgery or chemo treatments I am in your pocket.



    I have had my second chemo treatment, will have my third on Monday. Currently suffering with a cold, taking Sudafed, okayed by MO, but not really helping, still sneezing and not feeling good in general.

    Eli you must bring cheetos to my pocket party.

    Just spoke to Jo and she is still draining blood.  She said the doctor came by this morning and order another blood test and said he would see her this afternoon.  So it does not look like she will be going home today

    Will do, Sherryc.  I'll need massive quantites for all the pockets.

    nfranklin, seriously?  You too on Monday?  Is this some kind of harmonic convergence of the Middles?

    nfranklin I am sorry you are going through all of this.  Hang in there.  I'll try hard to be there for you on Monday.  I have to be at the hospital at 8:30 but will be thinking of you.  Sounds like a lot of chemo!

    I would love an Amaretto Cheesecake for my PP...how is that for indulgence?  Sounds like heaven to me.  Of course no calories in the pocket parties, what more could we want.  Oh...Cheetos!!!!!!  Will have to take my gauntlet off to eat those!  Laughing

    I just talked to Jo and she is antsy and just wants to go home.  She wants something good to eat!  Always a good sign!  Many hugs sweet lady.  You have a big fan club waiting to know you are MUCH improved. 

    Sheila it is never to late to jump in a pocket party.  We might have to have one for Jo when she finally gets sprung.

    I'm sure jo could use some Vitamin "C".  Take two (handfuls) and call me in the morning.

    Tink thanks for updating!  Hoping she makes it home as well. 

    Eli...my DH is the Cheetos fan in our house.  Oh and the "boyz" love them too!

    Elimar: yep seriously Monday . This must be a harmonic convergence of the middles.(smile).



    I am feeling half way decent today from, dealing with this cold. Hope it is gone by Monday when I take my third chemo treatment.



    Got granddaughter's birthday party tomorrow, she will be 11 on the 24th, also celebrating DH birthday which is on the 22nd. Should be fun, if I can stand all the giggling and screaming, she is having 8 screaming little girls over for the party and sleep over. My poor son and daughter-in-law. It will be fun though. I think I will escape early.

    Justmejanis: I have to be at the hospital at 8:15am to get my blood taken and chemo appointment is at 9:30am. I will be in your pocket Monday.< /p>

    Paula66,  I will let you twist my arm and YOU may kick off Weekend Mystery Pic (Part II) next weekend.  This will give you some time to find one and let others know it's coming.  Post on Sat. morning (or, Friday night, if Sat. morning doesn't work out.)  Reveal on Sunday, as usual.  Let's hope we have some keen observers amongst our Newbies.
