Muriel Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Last Thursday I had my 4 mo. CT scan and on Mon saw the doctor. The news? Maybe not so good. The radiologist found something in the pleural lining that could be a benign thickening or a malignant something or other. So, yesterday I had a PET scan and my Onc. presented my case at the weekly MD Anderson review committee meeting today. The nurse just called to tell me that they all decided what the radiologist had seen was NOTHING! The PET scan didn't light up at all. They went back and looked at previous scans. Whatever this radiologist saw has always been there. Meet ya at the Pub in about 1/2 hour. Hope Kasey and Fred are serving food there, too. Drinks are on me. Muriel Quote

Bruce u Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Great news Muriel!!!! I'll drink to that. Quote
Snowflake Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Wonderful end result, Muriel. Horrible ride to get there, but wonderful news! Whatever I'm having, I'll take it on the patio in the hot tub in my 1940's bathing costume. Goodness knows, if I showed up in a bikini some weird Captain Ahab would be running around yelling about a white whale.... Quote
Muriel Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 Oh no! The dreaded bus. The scary driver. The long trip. We could make up a story about that. We have made up many stories about Patti driving the bus to every where imaginable and picking up lots of survivors and family along the way. So, Patti, go over to Michigan first and get Snowflake. Thanks for all of your happy messages. Muriel Quote

Muriel Posted February 6, 2009 Author Posted February 6, 2009 WARNING TO SNOWFLAKE: Don't get on the bus! It's not safe if Patti is driving. Muriel Quote
Patti B Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Don't listen to her, Snow!!!! Besides, I get the feeling Snow is an adventerous gal!!! Might be pretty scare with the two of us together!!!! Hugs - Patti Quote
Connie B Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 I sure liked the end of this story! Congratulations! Quote
Kasey Posted February 7, 2009 Posted February 7, 2009 Hey Muriel.....Fred has been doing a great job on his own at the Pub. I am overjoyed at your good news and sure hope many more of our friends drop by. Pub hasn't been very busy lately. We'll need some catchymarketing gimmick to get the place jumping. In the meantime, I'm raising my glass to you! Kasey Quote
