      Hey there --- How goes it? Just wanted to say Hi and thank you for your last message. Just finished #10 and the cumulative Oxi treatments are starting to take a bit of a toll. Also, as Coogee would say -- "have had my head in the bowl a bit" :-) Glad to hear you are doing well. Overall, things are good here.

      Thanks, G8! I couldn't sleep because I have an appointment with a new gynecologist today. I'm not worried that he'll find something. I just hate doctors, especially stupid ones that are intimidated by my cancer history. It will be over soon. Your hug is helping.
