My day started grrrreat. I went to work, and we had Astronaut Greg Johnson (http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/Bios/htmlbios/johnson-gh.html) visiting our site. He was the pilot on the last space shuttle mission (STS-123). It was awesome getting a play-by-play (so to speak) of a Shuttle/Mir mission directly from the pilot. He was very funny! Greg awarded three of my co-workers Silver Snoopy awards. It's always fun to watch someone get rewarded for a job well done.
I left work at noon and had lunch and went to my 1:30 chemo appt where, once again, my veins were not cooperating. Helen poked and prodded and I finally told her that we had the same issue last week and that Jill was able to take care of it. So..... Jill came over, and guess what? Her first attempt was futile, so I got to have an IV on the back side of my arm this time. It worked great, and I was done by 4:50. Jill and I agreed I should have one person assigned to me who's familiar with my particular situation, so I'll now ask for Jill every time. I also noticed on the oncology website that there was a familiar name on there, and sure enough it was the wife of an old friend. I got to meet Ellen today. She's a doll.
I feel just fine right now. My hair is really starting to come out now.... It's pretty annoying. I'm sooooooo glad I cut it off.
Later gators. Thanks for reading, and thanks for the sweet comments you're putting on my blog.

Hi,
After Clayton "joked" about putting my phone # and name on a blog, I got to thinking that wasn't very smart. So, I went in and was able to delete it and did so. The offer is still there though, if you two need, call.

Hi Sandy,
You are really going strong!
Be sure to have Clayton take a picture of you without hair. Its a memory you may want in the years to come.
Glad you are doing so well.
Rita
