What a fun time I had this week. We had another lunchen for my friends that couldnt make the last one! AND, my daughter in law came too (see us in picture) ! This is a perfect way to see my friends, and for them to meet each others and make a new friend too! The food was good which I really enjoyed because I am still on my chemo therapy break and have an appitite! When I am on chemo I hate food and liquids…it is very hard to eat when everything you put in your mouth tastes awful! I wish they could do something about this side effect!
Bill has 2 days off plus the weekend! YIPPY! We have some plans and I hope the weather holds up…NO RAIN! But, if it does rain we will still have fun just being together. We will see our boys over the weekeknd too. And, we have a 4th of July party to go to! Oh I hope I can hold up!
Thanks girlfriends for the fun time! I am so very blessed to have all of you! You have made my life fun, exciting and genuine! Love you all!
Thanks for your support -

Sue,
You sound so happy! I gained 5 (extra) pounds while off of chemo because I loved the taste of food so much! I am glad you enjoy your luncheons. They sound like a great idea. I envy your excitement over spending time with your husband. What a wonderful relationship you must have. You deserve every happiness! Gaile
Dear Sue; We love to hear about your latest adventures. I hope you have a grand 4th of July. We had perfect weather here in Toronto, Ont. CANADA for our Canada Day on Tuesday. The red and white, plus mega fireworks across the land were abound. New citizens were sworn in and all in all we pretty much celebrate like your July 4th except we do it on the 2nd. You sound very happy while not being on chemo and I certainly understand that. Funny thing up here; My Oncologists try to avoid giving Chemo whereever possible as the side effects are just too brutal. I guess that’s why I haven’t had the pleasure of the that sweet stuff so far. You never know though . Lottery season is always waiting for the next person. Take care Sue. Weezie
You sound in great spirits. The luncheon sounds like fun.
I belong to a group of cancer survivors that all meet once a month for dinner or lunch. We have a great time and are very loud. We are known as the chicken girls because our motto is “Cancer Is Not For Chickens” We have chicken hats, chicken necklaces and big loud plastic chickens. We are quite a site in restaurants.
I wanted to let you know that the book is finally done and available. I have your story in it and 1 of those hilarious stories from your blog. The one where you were going to the doctor and got lost and lost your wallet and couldn’t find your car. I loved that one. Everyone that has read it so far as laughed so much about that.
Enjoy your chemo vacation.

Hi Sue – Hope you are doing well. Haven’t been to Michigan in some time. I hope you had a great 4th of July! My girls are coming to Michigan on Thursday. They’re going to the “Double J” ranch in the western part of Michigan on Friday with my mom. It should be fun! Let me know how you’ve been feeling. I hope all is well. Take care. I’ve been thinking about you.
