No sun, cool, breezy but at least no snow like they suggested could happen last night. I just wish we'd get spring for more than 2 days at a time.
Yesterday I went to see Dr. Londer with high hopes of having a plan for my new chemo regiment, but (the good part) Dr. Londer thinks I look wonderful, and all my blood work looks good, he doesn't know why Dr. Sideras (Mayo) is recommending such an aggressive regiment for me. So he wants to talk to him personally. He thinks I can get by with a less aggressive method. He did have me schedule a CTscan without contrast of my lungs, so they have a baseline up here, and he will beable to tell if it's working or not. I have that scheduled for today. So chemo will start soon, but what kind is in question.
I also have a hair appointment for today, and had to move that up a little earlier, so I can make both of them. I'm hoping when I get the chemo schedule it will not affect to many of my already made plans.
I also went to the Appreciation Tea yesterday for the Meals on Wheels drivers, and (Linda Z. you have to tell Jim to read this) when I got there the entertainment for the afternoon looked kind of familiar and he was holding an accordion. I went over and asked him if he was "Skeets Langley" and he said he was. I told him that when Jim and I were about 60 years younger we competed against him at the butchers picnics at Excelsior Amusement park....and beat him a couple of times....also talked about appearing with him on the Toby Prinn Show and the Jimmy Valentine show TV programs of the 50's. It was so fun, and although he didn't exactly remember us, he did remember all those competitions, and indeed his dad was a butcher, and he did become a musician union member as a young teen as he played in many supermarkets next to a wiener display and got paid for it. So Jim he was a professional just as we thought! and shouldn't have been competing with us in an amateur contest! lol He was also much older than us....atleast 4 or 5 years. Lots of fun memories.
I now have to get dressed and run off to get my hair done and then run to Robbinsdale for that CT scan (number 36) for me. Keep those prayers coming, Love ya, m
