AH THE WAITING GAME IS OVER - I'M FREE!!

So I had the strange and other worldly CAT Scan last week - it's the waiting game again until the doc tells me what they can see. AND AT MY DR. VISIT YESTERDAY - ONCE AGAIN I'M DECLARED CANCER FREE!!
 
And we"ll be going to North Carolina for the big feast day - maybe we can even walk in the surf!

Otherwise, am following several survivor blogs - a great way to network and give/gain support for our various projects.
 Am interested in the Occupy efforts:  the goals are radical and idealistic - building a consensus democracy movement - but like many, want to see a focused effort to make immediate change as well as dialogue concerning long term radical changes.  The "Teaparty"  has had success by targeting specific goals and influencing electoral politics.  The Occupiers can proclaim lofty goals, but without targets we may see the efforts swept away by a combination of cold weather, court action and street action. 
I don't feel we will get radical change in support for treating/ curing cancer until national support efforts are separated from the all powerful big Pharma.  Yes, there are celebrations, reports of many dollars raised, but many seem to be directed through efforts supported by Pharma - to promote thier own products.   Exciting new adventures to support new cancer research to be reported soon on this blog!

Celebrate, my dear readers whose support is so important!!  Together we can beat the bugs!
