The oncologist report today was very positive. She noted that the burns on the outside of my body are mostly healed. I had observed that myself, of course, but hearing her confirmation was like getting a good report card. She says it will be at least 2 months before the internal burning will be healed. But she thought that progress was as good as it could be.
She urged me to look ahead to a holiday away from home. Right now I'm planning to go to the National Education Computing Conference in San Antonio at the end of the month. She approved of that. I'm hopeful I'll feel confident about the trip when the time comes.
As always, thank you for your friendship.

I'm so glad the doctor review went so well, Betsy.
I did not realize that you burned inside and out with radiation! You are certainly giving a lot of us an education in cancer treatment and its effects on the body. I'm so glad you can get away for a while. That should give your spirits a big boost.
Love,
Cathy
So very glad to hear the word 'healing' in your own voice, Betsy. I'm amazed but not surprised that you're aiming for the NECC conference. We've all missed you in Santa Fe this time of year, and look forward to seeing you again.
