    Just thought I would update this. I wasn't going to but.....

    I had another CT scan on June 4th and I just got the results today. My right and left lungs are covered with tiny nodules that with time will grow. There are 2 or 3 of them that are growing now (compared to what they were last August) so my surgeon wants another scan in September and if they have grown in size again, then it's more treatment. He suggested perhaps chemo this time or he can go in through my ribs with a scope and snip them off. We'll see when the time comes.

    Those who know me best know that I call a spade a spade. I asked him how long I had to live. He said about 10 years....... We'll see about that!!!

    Edit: I've been thinking about this today and making up my list of things I really want to do. I figure if I put them in writing then they will come true.

    Take a hot air balloon ride
    Go snorkling in Florida
    Go to the UK to meet Pet Talkers
    Maybe slide into Germany, Belgium and Denmark
    Go on an African Safari (thanks Africam!!!)
    Visit Australia and New Zealand
    Go a Findlay meeting
    Go in a whale interaction program at a seaworld or aquarium
    Sleepover with the belugas (my local aquarium has this program)
    Visit Northern BC and see the northern lights
    Load up on lobster on the East coast of US and Canada
    Visit other parts of the US....go down south for some real shrimp gumbo...or perhaps visit Kansas????

    **sigh**

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!
