Cathys MRI results are good!

1 Recommendation

Been awhile since I have posted. Sorry all....please know we think and pray for you all the time.
Cathy had her brain MRI last week as it had been 6 months since the last one. She was a bit concerned because she was feeling a "tingle" in the back of her head that would come on and last 3 or 4 seconds.
The results came back clean! "HAPPY DANCING AROUND THE HOUSE!"
The Tarceva is continuing to keep her cough away which has always been a sign of what is going on with the cancer. We will go for her 2 month ct next week but I feel we will have good results once again due to the fact her cough is still silent...."I should say I pray we have good results again.
Love to you all and God Bless!
Oh....Cathy is going to VEGAS with three girlfriends over the 4th for 4 days! She is excited to go and play some poker, see the sights and EAT EAT EAT! Can you all believe I did not get invited!!! Actually, I did but told her to go have fun with her friends while I stay here and sell some more houses.

Love to all,

Bill & Cathy

"I only wear a dress and high heels for Cathy and thats only on Sat. nights when its a full moon....well,

HAHAHAHAHAHA....

Bill

Fabulous news! So happy to hear it!

Why don't you get 4 of your friends and go somewhere for 4 days while she's gone? You know the 4th will be a bad real estate weekend. Elsewise- I bet it will be torture for you to be away from her that long.

Think about it....... Nevermind- it will be torture for you no matter what you do. You're a sweetie. She's very lucky to have you.

You'll be celebrating many more holidays together.

Hi Bill and Cathy, awesome news! That is why it pays to get up in the morning. Speaking of pays I think I want to send Cathy a dollar for her to pull a slot for me. I think with her lucky streak going on she's a good bet. I hope her good luck continues. I know God's on your side at least as far as cancer goes maybe not so much in Vegas. LOL - John

Bill and Cathy: So happy to hear about your great results and upcoming trip to Las Vegas. With that good report, you've already hit the jackpot! Enjoy! Blessings! Brooklynda

Wish Cathy a happy celebration in Vegas. May you sell lots of houses while she is gone to keep the celebration going! Way to go on the MRI!

With caring,
Sheila

Great, great news. Hope she has a wonderful time and you sure are a supportive spouse (high heels are uncomfortable). Linnea

Great news for the both of you. You are a good man. My sister has stg iv nslc and my husband would tell me the same thing if the girls got a trip together since she is doing so good. We did have a girl's party where we invited friends from the hood that we had not seen in years unless it was a wedding or funeral. We promised to do it again. We really are sisters and look out for each other.

Wonderful news! We have missed both of you, and glad everything is going well.

Such great news, I know we all were anxiously waiting for a post from you, we were beginning to worry, not panic yet but worry. so ha[ppy to haear the great news. Hope she comes bvack from Vegas with a million bucks!! She deserves it and so do you. I agree not much in selling houses over the 4th weekend is there? maybe I am wrong maybe with this booming maarket, LOL you will be out selling them, anyway if your wife wins big you won't need it anyway!
good luck, you too have some fun this weekend, there are always close by indian reservation gambling spots!! they have indoor and outside pools and golf some of them.
Take care Sandy

Bill and Cathy, what a releif and great news, Happy 4th, may she hit a jackpot!!! Huggs, Karen

Bill & Cathy,

I just had you two in mind, then I read your Great News. Happy Dance for sure! And wishing Cathy Good luck at the tables. We would get along great, I love Poker.

Still waiting a couple more weeks before the first scan since taking tarceva. Praying for my results to be as good.

Linda

Great news! You are both in my prayers ....

Thanks for posting and letting us know how things are. I am so happy they are good!! I hope Cathy has a terrific time in Vegas.

Very exciting news and what a great way to celebrate with fireworks this weekend. I hope she has a super terrific time and 'hit's' a big pot out there.

Celebrating with the two of you on your wonderful news.
