Hi from Florida. Well, where do I start. I've been on pill for chemo-1 am, then 1pm- for about 2 weeks and no side effects-so far. Also, I go to radiation mon thru fri at 8 am-it takes about 8 minutes each time. I do nothing Sat and sun. On last Wed we went to Tampa General to have the tubes internalized. The doc said he was able to get 2 8mm stints in the ducts but it took some work. He asked me if I remember "coming of the table and almost hitting him". I told him NO, I'm sorry. He said he might have hit a nerve while I was out. He said he beat me up inside pretty good but better for the long run. So, all the bandages are off and I have 2 bullet holes in my belly (what's left of it) to show for it. Feeling better every day-hoping for a great summer. Thanks again for all of your cards, e-mails, calls and mostly your prayers-they're working, THANKS I wish I had all of your e-mail addresses so I can respond. Tina, in ICU, thanks for the note and helping me. Well, That's all for now. I hope everyone is well and happy and remember-don't sweat the small stuff. "Tubeless in Cape Coral", Rutt
