Hell, my mother beat small cell lung cancer (a far worse variety)when she was 62....she's 81 now. So no reason not to expect a repeat of her success.<br /><br />Stay healthy!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-41857326478978559082010-04-01T23:34:30.013-05:002010-04-01T23:34:30.013-05:00Bryan, the yellow stuff does me the worst as well....Bryan, the yellow stuff does me the worst as well. I keep the mfgrs of Alavert workalikes in business in this season. It's the only downside of having possibly 20 big trees waving in a more-or-less continuous breeze visible out my back window.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-79832535850305247612010-04-01T23:31:20.557-05:002010-04-01T23:31:20.557-05:00CG, yesterday brought some pretty good news for bo...CG, yesterday brought some pretty good news for both of us, didn't it!

Since Feb. 23rd I've had an EKG and CT scan of my head in Cabo San Luco. Came back to the States and had an EEG and and an MRI of my head. Then this past Friday I had a CT/PET scan of my torso as part of my quarterly check-up. Now my oncologist thinks he found some tiny fractures in my spine (of course there are tiny fractures in my spine, do you know how many times I fell on it during my drinking days?) and wants to do a bone density test...wtf? Oh yeah and my cholesterol is 12 points above normal.<br /><br />Hang in there, I'm right with you.<br />Good Luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-669933855089056862010-04-01T00:31:34.020-05:002010-04-01T00:31:34.020-05:00Down here it is all of the foreign trees that peop...Down here it is all of the foreign trees that people have hauled in over the years. I never had any problems when I grew up down here, but at the moment my sinuses are killing me and there is yellow pollen all over everything outside.Bryanhttp://whynow.dumka.us/noreply@blogger.com
