I am out of the hospital again and doing fine. I just haven't felt well enough to open my computer. I miss you all. I am currently staying at Albert's for a week. It is Dominick's graduation Friday so alot of people are arriving from out of state for his graduation party. Jordan is graduating from middle school on Monday. For those of you who don't know, Jordan and Dominic are Albert's grandchildren so that makes me their step-grandma. Anyway I am at Albert's while there are so many people around, and I must say he is doing an excellent job of taking care of me, considering that he is going thru radiation treatments for Prostate Cancer himself. He is awsome when he wants to be.
My INR is good again and my white blood cell count is on the rise but the best news yet is my CA-25 Tumor Count started at 355 and is now down to 147... YEA! If I can just stay healthy until surgery (28th) I will be doing good. No more going to the DMV...duhh!! I know, I know...
I have to admit that the closer to surgery I get the more nervous I get. I suppose that's normal. I have not had surgery like this so I don't know what to expect. I am excited about my sisters Tammy and Lisa coming to San Diego on the 26th. I wish it were under better circumstances though.
I saw that people from work are reading my blog. Thanks you guys!! Tell everyone hi. My doctor says I may be ready to go back to work in September. Let cross our fingers. Well I am gonna go for now. I love and miss you all!

Thats great news! I was getting worried about you because nothing had been written for a couple of days. Did you get your package yet? It was supposed to be there by last Wednesday. Let me know! Luanna PS my hair is even shorter now... but I like it. It kinda looks like your wig!!!
That's great news, Valerie! It's good to hear that you have someone taking care of you so well. You'll beat this!
Love, Darrel.
Hope today finds you feeling as well as you were on Friday!
Albert sounds like a good guy to be helping you out while facing his own obstacles.
Looking forward to September!
