update

• blood tests last week show tumour markers are continuing to go down
  
• still headache free - yippee - I'm a different woman

• currently chemo-free- no intravenous drip or chemo tablets for another 2 weeks - yippee
• one blood test only this coming Monday, then nothing for 2 more weeks, so...... my Dad and I are off to Port Douglas on Monday for a week of warmth in the bones :)
• so - no Hopemobile trip just yet
• just home from a manicure/pedicure/facial session - heaven - and smooth face and pretty nails :)

My Dad polishing his shoes on the balcony before he goes to the horse races. He's a 90 year-old champ!

I saw the Chinese herbalist this week. He was very pleased with the blood test results and our discussion about my diet and my do-it-yourself acupuncture activities. So, I said "So, you think I'll last a bit longer then?" He replied "Oh, sure. You'll live 'til your 100!!" Ha Ha! The slow pace in which I walked into his rooms became almost a skip on the way out. I don't believe him for a minute (who wants to live to 100 anyway?), but it's amazing the difference it made to my mood for the day.
