Texas

I work, but if you do lunch around the Galleria or close I can go during the week!  My next treatment is May 3rd so hopefully we can organize a meetup soon!  I can go the weekends too given notice!

Hope everyone is feeling good! 

I'm downtown, but can possibly schedule.  Keep me posted.

If you all can meet for an early lunch on a Saturday - you might enjoy that more! When we met here in San Antonio we met at the spaghetti warehouse at 11 (knowing it would be empty - and at first we didn't know how many were coming). We ended up chatting for um, like, what was it ladies - 3 hours?  It was wonderful putting faces with names.

After lunch those of us who could went on to see the missions and alamo as Chrissy B. from Australia had chosen SA as a stop on her world tour! We ended up spending the entire day together.

Gina is so right.  What a memorable day it was last October 1st.  The Spaghetti Warehouse was great and the rest of the day was even better.  

I grew up in SA - spent 30 years there and I never heard it pronounced Nee-oh-sa.  It  always had been Ny-oh-sa.

When I lived in SA, I always heard it pronounced with a long i.

Gina- from what the good morning SA show said was that the commitee on something or other (who runs NIOSA) pronounce it the way no one else does LOL

I personally feel some pompous person thought it'd sound fancier lol then started a debate. because from looking at it NIOSA looks like it'd be pronounced Nigh-oh-sa. Lets bring it back to elementary pronunciation if there are 2 vowels the first will say its name  

LOL! Thread killer!!! For shame.....

Texasrose maybe everyone was at FIESTA and forgot to come back.

I think it's because we're all melting in the heat!

Hi TexasRose - I can't complain. Two months on tamoxifen and still getting periods and no hot flashes and no side effects. I thank God daily. Mentally and emotionally not so good, a lot of crap was going down a year ago right now that I did not know about that came to light in June and that's when my world fell apart.....but moving to Texas will help that, and I'm still on track to do that between I'm hoping October and Feb. Will know more once I have my first 3D mammogram and my first PET scan. 

It's in the 90s here, but that's normal for May. We've already hit 100 twice. What's it like where you all are?

And MinusTwo, AMEN!

No........that's over an hour away from me on the other side of Phoenix. I live in/around Scottsdale and there are a ton of cancer centers here. I think that's why they put CTCA out there because the west side lacks in a lot of things.

I'm lucky I live where I do, there are two Mayo hospitals within 10-30 min of me and the pioneering radiation oncologist who did my bracytherapy, so I sure can't complain. I know going to Texas there are tons of great healthcare places all over the state, so I know moving won't be an issue for me medically. Thank God 

You must drive slow LOL or live way north like past paradise valley mall. Yeah they really have built up the westside. i used to live in buckeye btw ;0 they just finsished building the center right before we moved.

no worries sherry- i havent been to fiesta since being pregnant with my now 6 yr old!  

Hi everyone, resurfacing......DH was in hospital, better now.  Went down to the coast to see my nieces - their mother passed from BC the week I was on retreat.....and yes indoors in good, it's already so hot here.
