Medical Update--Mary Ellen Dussouy
This is the latest info on Mary Ellen...
The doctors have decided that I am in the group that will benefit from chemo. So....that will be what we do. I am scheduled for several tests next week.
On June 9th I will go in to have the port put in. My doctor says that even though I will only have 4 treatments, the chemo will destroy the veins in my arm, and since I only have one arm they can use, they feel this is the easiest and safest way. I had the port last time, and it worked out great. Once the port is in, they want to start chemo. So I guess sometime after the 9th it will begin.
I am also scheduled to meet with a genetic counselor. This doctor will determine if I should have a gene test to see if I test positive for this cancer gene.(Again, depending on the insurance company) I will meet with him on June 13. I know he will be asking questions about family history. Have you heard of anyone in our family having breast cancer. I would imagine he will also want to know about any other types of cancer. I know there has been some, but not sure exactly what kind. I feel the more information I can give him, the easier it will be for him make a decision.
Once I have been tested, if I test positive, then they will know what gene to look for in family members.
Well, here I go again.... beginning my journey. The good thing this time is it is only 4 treatments instead of 8. And no radiation!!!!!
Plus I have a great peaceful get away place.
I will keep you posted.
love

Prayer Concern--Aunt Verne
This is from Aunt Mary Nell--
Just wanted to let you know Vern has the shingles, they are hoping they don't go into her eyes as they are on her head and face.
Love ya... A>M>N.
I've heard shingles can be pretty painful, so I'm sure a prayer for healing would tickle her pink...
Thanks to everyone.
Luv u all,
Cindy

Phil's Surprise !
Phil signed his own "Surprise Shower Card !"
quote..
Well, I was trying to get everyone to sign the card for him and Denise and he caught me. He asked what the card was for and I told him that it was a card that we were going to leave at Daddy's memorial. He said that he wanted to sign it also. What could I do? I told him that it was full of signatures inside and he would have to sign the back ...... which he did!!!!
When he told the story to Denise she laughed and said she thought it was funny!!!

Posting pictures to the blog...
Just trying out posting pics on the blog. So of course the first few will be my munchkins. Logan was so excited about his lemonade stand and helping out the Old House. He asked me what they used the money for and I gave him a few examples. He thought it was so cool that his money was helping out. I am so proud of him!!
Naomi
Oh, if you have pictures you'd like my mom to post be sure to email them to her at cevans1004@aol.com. If you've got a lot I can put them into a slideshow.
Correction-Monies Total-Reunion 2008
Just a minor boo-boo...under the caption--More Reunion News--...
the correct money totals--
T-shirts...$ 522.00
Lemondade Stand $ 23.00
The total is the same, but the Lemonade stand and the t-shirt monies had previously been put together and now we've seperated them, but the totals are the same...
Thanks again,
Melba
