Cheers!

My son Lee sent out this email to his siblings while I was having a blood test...

<Her scan was good -- her neck was a bit "hot" but they think that's a byproduct of the radiation. Everything else appears clean. Mom still needs to rest and recuperate from her treatments (the trip to seattle was ill-timed for that) and they will check on her again near the holidays. So... Good news!>>

I sat there pretty much like an idiot, high, or low, on an antibiotic and strong decongestant.... but I know good news when  I hear it.  Do you realize this will be the longest stretch I have gone with a good result?

When I got my wits about me ,I did ask about my lack of a voice, not being able to raise it to yell at someone, the constantly getting hoarse. It's going to stay that way. Scar tissue from radiation. Okay, so I can live with a husky sexy voice.

Dr. was pretty strong about me having a vacation, just rest and rest and rest -- something I didn't do in Seattle.  So will follow her orders and my son Lee, too, who said for me just to be lazy, read books, write on one, but no stress stuff. When I learn how to avoid stress ,I'll get the Nobel prize.

It's the Jewish New Year. I have to say this is a great new beginning for me.

Shalom.
