Another good report

... I could get used to this!  I had an appointment with Dr. Bonomi this afternoon.  Today was just blood work and a check up.  All my vitals and blood work look normal.  He said we can stretch the time between our appointments to every 6 weeks instead of every 4 weeks - which is really great because he really runs late and a 10 minute visit with him today required almost 3 hours of waiting!

At my next appointment we will do a chest CT scan to see how the lung is looking since it was radiated back in early May.  That will be on Tuesday, August 30. 

Until then, I'm just trying to enjoy a Chicago summer!

A Milestone of Sorts

Happy 4th of July!  Today is not only my father's 85th birthday, it is also the one year anniversary since I had the brain seizure that ultimately led me to see the doctor and learn that I had cancer.  This morning, Doug and I ran the Highland Park Firecraker 4 Mile again.  My time was not nearly as good as last year, but I didn't walk or stop at all during this run - that's progress!

I'm feeling pretty normal and tested my stamina this week by putting in 12 hour days (9 of them doing stand-up training each day) for 3 days in a row.  Not only did I get through it, the student evaluations were all very positive!  :)

My appointment with Dr. B that was scheduled for July 5 has now been postponed to July 19 so those of you keeping track, no need to worry that I don't post anything about the results of the visit for a couple more weeks.

That's all for now!
