All gene tests are Negative

It is late and tomorrow I leave for a 3 day New Jersey Annual Social Work conference in Atlantic City. I will leave the conference a little early on Tuesday afternoon to rush back for a treatment of radiation at 4 pm. The great news is that my course of treatment can remain unchanged because I have no genes currently linked to cancer--- breast, ovarian, lung, colon or stomach-all came back NEGATIVE.  And I will start my estrogen lowering medication on Cinco de Mayo- Dr. Gor said that I should start the medication on a memorable easy date to remember as I will stop it 5 years from the exact date I start.  And since I was traveling- May 1st did not seem reasonable so I went the next best thing. 

I just returned from 2 full days with several of my college buddies. Lunch, Spa treatments, cocktails and conversation, 
dinner, train into Manhattan, great Mexican lunch and Margaritas at Toloache and then "CHICAGO" on Broadway- and a very slow train ride home to Caren's. 2 hours later, I pulled into my driveway to unpack and repack to leave in the morning for AC at 830 am.   I am so looking forward to time with myself and strangers I have no yet met. 

Good Night and Sweet Dreams You All.
