My son Bill took me to get my chemo this morning, as he wanted to hear what the doctor had to say. Well Mayo had still not sent the report or the CTscan to Dr. Londer. But I saw Londer on the way in as he was just coming in at the same time as I was, and I told him I wasn't doing very well. So when I did get into his office he said I didn't look very well, and after talking awhile, he was quite worried that my cancer was back growing in my lower back and he wanted me to have a PETscan ASAP. He didn't think he wanted to do chemo on me today, and because I looked so dehydrated he just wanted me to get fluids today.
I have my PETscan scheduled for tomorrow at 1 p.m., and I see Londer again on Friday at 1 p.m. for the results. Please say a lot of prayers for me!!!
As for Vegas here is a picture of the gang.
We got there on Thursday evening, and basically just had dinner and went to bed. We didn't leave till 4 p.m. and there is a two hour loss of time, so we got to Vegas at 5:30 their time....but it was over a three hour flight. My back was killing me by the time I got there, those airplane seats are killers. By the time we had dinner and got back to our room....we heard from Kathleen that Blair's flight was delayed and she wouldn't be in till after Midnight, so we watched TV, and finally decided to dose till they arrived which was about 12:30 p.m.
Friday morning, we all met for breakfast at 9 a.m., and I think by then there were about 20 of us there. We then went to the casino and picked a machine to have a slot tournament. I think June won that one, and she ended up with about 60 dollars....we each got 4 puls and then cashed out the highest got all. Then at 1 p.m. we all loaded a bus for a tour of the strip, and then he took us to a newer shopping center, where some of us headed straight for the bar, and others shopped till 3 p.m. when happy hour started. We each had chipped in $20 for the trip, and we got to order anything we wanted off the menu for happy hour and we got all the drinks we could drink. By 5 p.m. we were all ready to go back to the Flamingo and party on there. We ad another High Roller Tournament at 10 p.m. that night, and about 18 of us took part. Each put in 10 dollars and pulled once, and then when all eighteen had our turn we hadn't won much....I think it would have been $18 each, so we kept taking turns and ended up winning nothing at all....but had fun trying.
I'll add Saturday and Sunday tomorrow...need to go back to the couch. Love and Prayers, m
Mary, take it easy. Rest. Prayers coming your way. Praying for a clear PET scan.
