Quite a Yule present. Good luck to her (and to you, monnie!)

Well the long term hormone treatment she was on and wanted to be on failed because her ovaries kicked back into action, so now she's on the regular Tamoxifen which is causing her lymphodema problems. But she's doing well and has a cool new car

It's just a case of wait and see now. You're never free once you've been tagged, so you just do what you can with the freedom you've got.

thanks for asking.

Hey! She got a cool new car?! Awesome!

I'm having surgery thursday for "complications" of my chemo/cancer crap. In and out - no overnight. Chemo really screws with the body.
