Finally, we have Spring. I hope everyone was able to get out and enjoy the nice weather this weekend. I was able to get some gardening done with the help of my friend Rosa (she did most of the planting). I had a great weekend, spent with family and celebrating my mom's birthday.
On Thursday, the tree service came and cut down the tree that was leaning against the back of our house. There's some damage to the gutter, the siding, the fence and the deck, but it doesn't look like anything major.
I am actually going to work a half day this afternoon and also on Wednesday afternoon. I have been feeling great and am bored, so it will be a nice change to go into work for a few hours.
I also goofed with my dates in the last posting...my tentative hospital return date is for Thursday April 26th (not the 27th).
Until the next posting...

Glad your tree is gone, without your house too much worse for the wear. I'm thrilled you were able to devise a way to get back to work -- speaks highly of you and your employer!
Love,
Mary
Erica, We hope you enjoy your week before treatment again. We think of you all the time and pray for you.
With Love,
Claudia, John, Jake and Luke
Hi, Erica. So good to hear you are doing so well! I hope the next round of therapy will start shrinking the tumors. Amazing that you could go to work this week, and wonderful. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love and peace,
Jeane Frey
Erica Joyce: Happy to hear that you're feeling good enough to go back to work for a bit. Don't push yourself too hard. As for the tumors, may they be like your tree: Gone with minimal damage. Sent you a care package the other day. Enjoy and remember how much I love you.
Love,
sus
Erica:
We have been following your progress through your family and Lizzie but have to tell you your pictures are great. Tom says 'you look like a million bucks!' The doctors sound really terrific, but your excellent conditioning is obviously a plus. This past weekend was a beautiful one to be out smelling the flowers and enjoying spring. We have and will be thinking of you and sending a lot of positive energy. Jordy wishes Cory was still on the team at Wakefield...in addition to the fact that he was such a good player, we have a lot fewer fans now! Yours, Sylv, Tom and Jordy
Hey, glad you went back to work. Good luck with the next treatment session, Lots of prayers will be said for you.
