This week was a great week. I spent some time with friends before going back to work. On Tuesday, I made a trip to Stillwater with Anne and Shaun for lunch and a walk around the town. The girls at the pool had a dinner on Wednesday evening. I also went out for coffee (tea for me) a few times this week. I can't have caffeine yet.
On Friday, I had a doctors appointment with Dr. Larson (my oncologist) and Dena went with me. So here is the update: as of right now I don't go back to this doctor for 3 months, then I will have another PET Scan, and some blood work done. They are still a little concerned about a mass in my lungs (they think it might be scar tissue). So we are waiting for some of the drugs to get out of me. The mass in my lungs is not related to my cough (or so they tell me).
This means that I have only one doctor appointment a month for the next 3 months. That's what happens when you have 3 specialists. I'm not sure what I will do with all my time.
Friday, Dena and I went to Sammy's Pizza and movie (Julie and Julia) thanks to the Adams Staff. It was a good movie, but I don't think I will ever be cooking an entire cookbook.
I did go for a few walks this weekend and I needed a nap when I got home.
This week is my last week of summer before I go back to work. I have a few more things planned. I'm also working on walking or running a little more. On Friday my dad and I leave for Brainerd to race on Saturday and Sunday.
Have a great week

Anna - I'm so glad that your life will start to return to normal with just a few doctor's appointments.
It was fun to hang out last Friday. I could see you cooking a chapter of a Skinney Girl cookbook but maybe not the entire book.
I think the doctor is concerned about a lymph node in your chest that is near your lungs but not in your lungs. Hopefully the next PET scan will show that all of the cancer cells are really dead.
I hope you enjoyed your last week of summer before work starts up next week.
