    Carol, thinking of you and sending prayers for a speedy recovery and as minimal pain as possible.

    Annette, you are so brave!  You go!  Envious of your May 4th get-together.

    Carol, Sending prayers for a quick recovery and good pain meds for little pain.

    Annette - You go girl!!!!! 

    We find out the the results of my mom's uterine cancer pathology on Thursday.  Praying for stage 1. 

    I agree with Meece - I'm envious of your get together also!

    Carol, just said a prayer for you that the surgery goes well.  Prayers also for you husband, sometimes I think they have it just a little bit harder than us (at least on the day of surgery waiting for us to get out of surgery). 

     Hawk, prayers for your mom as well.

    Carol, My prayers are with you!

    Annettek,  what kind of a retreat did you want to go to?  Sounds like a move into Life! Love the top down and radio up night drive too.

    Carol, Hugs and good wishes for an uneventful surgery. Let us know how you're doing when you feel up to it.

    Annette so sorry the retreat was not what you expected but sounds like you made your own retreat that you needed. 

    Carol-I had my BMX with TE's three weeks ago with PRMA.  I had Dr. LeDoux, who is your Dr.?  Dr. LeDoux is amazing as all the Dr's with PRMA are.  The staff at Methodist hospital was wonderful.  Best Hospital experience I have every had.  I guess with the DIEP you will have to hang around SA for a couple of weeks post op.  You probably won't feel like getting out much.  Hope you heal fast.

    hawk I'll be praying for your mom

    Hi to my Stage 1 Sisters,
    I've been off for a week - working and doing taxes...just catching up....
    Wow...no posts for 24 hours here?  Or is the thread broken?
    Prayers for Carol....hoping things went OK and that you will have a quick and uneventful recovery.  This must be a very tough time...it is time to heal now, and put the BC beast out of your life.
    Granny - I noticed it's been 2 years since your dx.....here's to your continued good health....love your fighting spirit. 
    Heather - hoping you and your mom have good news.
    Joan

    Thank you Joan. I agree - it has been extremely quiet!  Spring is in the air and hopefully everyone is outside and enjoying themselves.

    Continued prayers for Carol.

     Hugs to all of you.

    I have been so overworked this past 1-1/2 weeks and almost turned down a chance for a nice outing tomorrow.  Our science scholars are going on a trip with some of the science faculty to Mohonk Mountain House tomorrow (all expenses paid by college)..  I had typed my regrets and was about to hit send, when I changed my mind and said "I'd love to go".....it means getting up at 5:00 AM and bringing some work on the 3 hour bus ride; but it will be worth it to be outside in a beautiful place ... and getting a great lunch, too.  The work will wait.  It is supposed to be pretty nice weather, too.
    I hope I am learning to make sensible priorities!

    Joan811, Good for you. I think you made the right choice. We get too wrapped up in details and overlook the need to step back and enjoy the scenery once in awhile.
