Dam Susan, that photo looks like you just won an arm wrestling championship at the Yak and Yeti in Kathmadu.

When are sessions 5 and 6? Hopefully soon, and successful
February and March. My son's 20th birthday is in March also...will be a month to celebrate. So far things are looking good. I may be one of the lucky ones.

First trip back to Yosemite since surgery and chemo. Full trip report later. This was a hike up to Columbia Rock on Yosemite Falls Trail above Camp 4. I call this Half Dome and Chemo Dome! Ferretlegger is there with me...as he always has been. I'm a lucky girl.

Susan, Are you familiar with the Clearity Foundation?
Thanks for the info. I was not familiar with Clearity. It's targeted group is for women in stage 3C and 4. I am early stage: 1C. Truly one of the lucky ones. Rarely is it caught early, typically 70% of women are not DX until it is very advanced. I think I have used up 8 of my 9 lives by being caught early. I will share the information with some of the support groups I meet with.
Great pic of the Tri-Domes Ha Ha...I won't share that with Michael. And he THOUGHT he was thin on top...
you are.. one of the lucky ones. Boy Nita, you are so right and I am so humbled by it every day. There isn't a day goes by that I don't tear up for those that didn't get the break I got. While my DX and follow up chemo is no picnic it breaks my heart every day reading about those who are still suffering so much.
we'll have a HH taco get together oh yeah....you can count on it
Thank you Neebee, Jaybro and Fattrad for your kind words of encouragement. Means alot!

No sprint to the end but getting it done the slow way...got kicked off chemo last week due to low white blood counts; returned today...YEAH, check off chemo #5. Number 6 on March 11 will be the final one! J-T here we come for Doug's benefit.
Paul (Disaster Master)...I wish I could capture words in the same way you do to be able to tell you how you have helped me tap into my inner self to keep moving through all this sh**t. I just want you and Doug to regain your health and strength...you have both paid your dues and then some in the self discovery that occurs when dealing with a serious illness.
Thought of you today at chemo where I must have downed 3 or 4 cups of tea! Susan
