and the result of the Biospy is.....

GREAT! got good news ( finally!) the other day. They said the progesterone is doing its job, and the cancer is slowing. Or at least from what i understand, thats what the progesterone does. They say that in 3 months i'll go back up to Syracuse get a biopsy and I think, a D&C. I'm a little unclear if they are going to do the D&C then or schedule it for later. hopefully then. It was okay driving to syracuse when i lived an hour away, but a bit tougher when its 5 hours! I just didn't see the point of transferring doctors, when i only see him in 3 month stints, and i'll be back at Fort Drum at the end of the year. But anyway, after the D&C, i have to wait 6 months, and then i can start trying to have kids again. I'm ecstatic about that. Jonny will be home, and the world set right again!

Sorry for the lack of postings. But really, this blog was supposed to be a conception journal. Dealing with the PCOS and all that, i thought it might be helpful to others, and also keep those interested in my life in tune. But since all that got put on hold its been tough. Its all been just plugging along the waiting game it is.

OH! As a side note, i came home from Fort Drum to get away from the cold and snow! what nerve does Ohio have to dump a crap ton of snow on me! hehe. oh well its still not quite as bad as NY. they've gotten about ten times this amount we have since i left in October. But poor salem can't even get over the snow drifts to pee Hehe.

anyway. Nothing new with me, how are all you doing?

No more fetch for Kira

Well, I feel horrible for my dog, Kira. This dog LIVES for fetch. I'm a firm beleiver that she would eventually die with a tennis ball in her mouth. She just loves to run. But shortly after moving in here, we went out to play fetch, and a few hours later she could barely hold wait on her right leg. I immediatly panicked ( paniced? panic-ed? >.>) and thought " oh no, her hips are starting to go!". I didn't even put two and two together with the ball thing, till later. i set up a vet appointment, in case she did something really wrong, like popped out her hip, or fractured it. SHe is an old dog... but the next day she was walking better and by the third or fourth day she was fine, so i cancelled the appt, thinking she wretched it. Cause, well, she slides and twists all over the place after that ball! I've seen her do somersaults in her younger days LOL! But i decided to break from playing fetch just to give her time to recuperate and all that. but anyway fast forward a month and half, to yesterday. it was incredibly nice, and almost warm, so we went out to burn some of that energy off, and lo and behold, a few hours later she's limping. It makes me so sad to think we can't do the one thing she loves the most in this world, except maybe me ;)I dunno, its hard to come to terms with her getting older. She'll be nine in june, i beleive, which isn't horrible old, but this year was hard on her as far as health. But here's to hoping for many more healthy years yet.


Also on a side note. My car was fixed, but i had that all to well known womens curse happen. It makes a noise for me that sounded like parts of my wheels were dropping out, but noone else but my mother hears it O.o. but there was something that needed fixed, a wheel bearing, or something of that nature. Also it made it to Syracuse, and back without killing us all! But i'm a paranoid fool, and now i swear every creek and rattle it makes, i swear its the car plotting to blow up on me >.>;;

Obviously the computer is fixed also, but slowly but surely other things are blowing up on me. I swear everything mechanical, or electronical ( a word? i think not but i like it anyway!) gets a memo the minute Jonny steps out of the country. who is this memo maker, and where can i maim him at! anywho but its working for the time being. so yay for that at least.

oh and from teh oncologyst we're just waiting on a biopsy result to find out how the hormone therapy is working. If all goes well, i'll be able to start trying for kids again in october! which is just perfect considering jonny will be home in November!!!! anywho thats it in a nutshell. <3
