| My tumor markers went up to 57. Mom and the Doctor had both seen the results and were very concerned about how I would react. He reassured both of us as he doesn't believe we have reason to be concerned unless of course it goes up considerably next time or continues to rise. It really does make sense since I took a break from my treatment schedule, which I don't regret I felt great and needed it. I have been so focused on those darn numbers that I have forgotten what the real goal here is. I have to just keep going, this can't be about my hair, my watery eyes or the aches and pains this is about the long term goal and we all know what that is. We are all staying very positive. Attitude is everything! Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass.... It's about learning to dance in the rain. |

Hi Trini,
You are right not to be soo focused on the numbers. I found out that we are close to piedmont park when we come in October. We will really try to be three to cheer you on. Hang in there.
Love ya, Denise

Hi Trini,
It's Ashley, Garth's daughter from Texas...I just wanted to say hello and let you know that I'm thinking of you. I get updates from Dad and Susan about your progress. Thank you for sharing your experiences through this blog. I LOVE your's and your sisters "5 Sisters for a Cure" logo!! That is SO cool. You guys make me wish I had more than one sister, but alas...I just have one, but she's a keeper! Say hello to you folks. Hopefully, I'll make it back down to Florida again soon! It's my turn to come down for a visit.
Good luck and best wishes!
