Busy Day

This week in school is TAKS week, so we have to keep all kids very quiet. They did very well, and we don't even have specials for three days, so we took them outside to play. They loved it.

After school, I went to get a mammogram. Lots of fun. Just checking everything in and on my body.

There is a very good reason why I am so tired. The doctor's office called me late this afternoon and said that my calcium levels are higher than they were last week. I've been told that when your calcium levels are high that it makes you very, very tired. So, tomorrow afternoon I go to get an infusion of "something." That will take a couple of hours.

Next, my doctor wanted me to get a test ASAP that takes nuclear radiation dye that comes from Europe but can't get here for the volcano.
The soonest I can get an appt. is May 17 & 18. Isn't it sad that the US is dependent on Europe to get nuclear dye for testing? I'm really learning a lot.

Today my kids made cards for me and they were so sweet. Some kids talked to me about my cancer and told me stories of people they knew who had cancer. They know it is serious and they were all concerned about me coming back next year. I told them that I would be back: better than ever.

I also had some Mary Kay business which made me feel like the old "Susan."

Thanks for your cards and prayers. They mean so much to me.
