cruise here I come

21 Replies

Saw my oncologist yesterday and my count is down to CA125 is 32 (from 1995 in May), and my CT scan shows reduced ascities and cancers in the omentum, and he thinks I deserve a holiday, so all booked at 10.00am this morning!! Mind you I'm carrying on with the treatment a bit longer to make sure all is ok at christmas.

I'm SOOOO pleased! It's great to have lovely news to share. You'll have a wonderful time, and half the joy is the planning. I am so pleased for you, and your family, cos they are all along for the journey (if not the cruise!) with you, aren't they?

ENJOY!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the details. It sounds a wonderful trip. You can really leave it all behind. I'm sure you will need more than one evening dress. Shopping and holidays are very therapeutic.

Love Sarah
