    • Celebration

      From Pattakakes November 3

      Hey Sally,
      Sending you a congrats, it is something to celebrate as you have one day less of chemo fun. Everyday is like a notch in a holster. Some days are good, some are not but at least we have days. I am doing fine, having surgery on the 18 of this month. Not worried about it as I have alot of confidence in the surgeon. I should,
      if it were not for him and his skills I may not be sitting here typing to you. Hernia surgeries are not like they used to be, although it will be an invasive
      procedure. Besides it gets me out of Thanksgiving dinner..ha ha. See I usually can find some humor along lifes paths. I think when you are recovered, we should pick a place and time and maybe do lunch. It would be
      nice to meet you at some point. Guess one could say we have alot in common. Unfortunately for us it is not something easy like knitting..ha ha. Have a wonderful day and try to keep in mind there is an end to this misery.
      Good thoughts to you,
      Pat
