MI Survivors

Dang it. I know I said I was available on the 21st but my mom is not doing well and we're in the process of working out the long term issues. I have to be on the east side getting information on long term placement and Medicaid issues.

If there is a change in plans let me know because I'd love to get together and see everyone as well as meet those who haven't made it before.

Gerri

Dunno--couldn't go last time. I will assume that somewhere shortly after 11 is good. I'll check this thread before I go.

I called, and the restaurant opens at 11:00. I'm going to shoot for 11:00. I'm usually way early or a little late.

Sphynx, SEI, fancy, Tonya and all the rest of the MI ladies,
Have a great time today.

Hugs,
kats

I'm sorry I didn't make it todya. I was so looking forward to seeing you all today, but ended up sleeping 12 hours instead. My body and my mind are just not in sync yet. I hope you plan another luncheon soon.
Love,
Ann

We missed the ladies that didn't make it but had such a good time, we are already planning our next soiree. Candy is checking out Canton for Lorie so we are hoping for something in that neck of the woods. We are also looking for a place that lets us chat for hours since we always get the feeling that we are hanging out too long and want to keep talking. If anyone has suggestions, please pipe-up.

I'm fine with a Sunday if it gets the Chicago ladies to join us. Anyone else?

Shel - I tried to call you in the morning and was worried that my directions were going to take you to Ann Arbor or California. I got an all circuits busy recording. I just read about your latest developments and want to say I am so sorry. You will get through this and we are here for you if you need us.

Geri and Jan - Hope your mom problems smooth out. My mother is 92 so, I can relate.

Hope to see everyone again real soon.

Hello!!!
Nancy, Irene, Kay and Candi.... It was terrific seeing all of you. Too bad we couldn't have visited longer. It is so nice to know that we are not alone, and have eachother for support. It am really glad that I got a chance to meet all of you.
Sorry, if I'm getting too mushy...lol I just watched that Lifetime movie (that I said I wasn't going to watch)!
You ladies are wonderful!!! See you soon!
XOXO,
Tonya

Hi, Nancy...I tried to respond to your PM you but your mailbox is full. XOXO, Tonya

Tonya Tammy - I cleaned my messages again. I cannot let go of the old messages from Sprite. It is bad enough that all the old posts are gone, I'm holding onto these. What is the max we can have, anyone know?

As you know, I have a pretty boring life so I'll put any date on my calendar and will look forward to another get-together.

Irene - any results back yet? How are you doing?
Kay - Good news on your visit and thanks for the vitamin/herbal alert. How is your DH? Do you mind me using your real name? I always feel like I'm addressing your horse!
Candi - Did you make your appointment? How did your new job go?
Tonya - Check your email also!
Hope everyone is well.

Hi,

It was great seeing everyone. Time went too fast again, though!

Jan – Sorry you couldn’t make it, we were looking forward to meeting you. Hope your mom’s doing better now. Thank you - how did you know it was my birthday??

Ann – Hope you’re doing well. How did the carpet turn out?

Gerri – Sorry to hear your mom’s not doing well. Hopefully you can make the next one.

Kay - Glad to hear your DH is feeling better. Hope it's a permanent turn for the better.

Candi - How's the job going?

December would be fine with me for another lunch. It’d be a nice break from all of the stress of the season. And a good way to get me out shopping afterwards (I’m a bit of a procrastinator). I’ll put a poll up in a few days.

Finally got my results. I called again on Monday for my blood test results and mentioned that my ultrasound results should be in, too, and she says I have to come in for those. So I went in. Looks like I’m not in menopause anymore, so I’ll be sticking with Tamoxifen. The ultrasound showed an ovarian cyst and a “slight” thickening of the endometrial lining. Shouldn’t be a problem since I’m not in menopause anymore, but he suggested I see my gyn and do a follow up ultrasound in December (merry Christmas) to be sure.

I did complain about how hard it is to get results by phone and he apologized and said they’d fired all but two of the women in office in the last two weeks, so there should be an improvement next time. We’ll see how it goes.

Nursing a cold right now, so I’m off to bed.

Take care.

Hi Michigan girls,
I just came across this post. Don't know how I missed it before. I'm not real "clever" when it comes to computers! Do you all meet every so often or what? What area do you live in? I'd like to meet some people (survivors) around me! I'm sure it is hard to get people together, but if you don't mind I'd like to hear from some of you!
Denise

Hi everyone,
If you do a get together in Dec.I will really tryt o get there. Wish me luck. I'm supposed to have breast reconstruction surgery at Troy Beaumont on Nov. 29. I do have MRSA courtesy of Henry Ford's surgeons, so I have to take special antibiotics & pray for the best.

Hey Denise! I live in Tyrone Twp with a Fenton mailing address. We HAVE to be close. I'll pm you---

I think a December/January get together sounds like fun. Now that I'm employed again, hopefully I'll be able to make it! :-)

I'm doing okay, but I'm getting really tired of this LONG treatment plan that I've got. Oh well, A/C today, then 3 more, then 2 weeks off before T. I think I'd rather count days till Christmas!

At least it's a beautiful day, so I'm gonna walk to my treatment.
