Hi everyone,
         I am writing tonight from St. Louis where I am visiting Julie for the night.  I am truly touched by all the quick comments to the blog and it really moves and comforts me.  I've been very busy the last few days. I drove up to 
Atlanta yesterday to have my genetic testing done.  It will come back in 2-3 weeks.  It is very scary to think of the outcome this test could have on all my family members and myself.  Please continue to pray that we are negative for this gene.  Today I went to do my preop for Monday's surgery and it made it all a little more "real".  

I do have a big Praise and that is that my mother's PET scan came back negative for any new cancer cells in her lungs and she doesn't need to see her Dr. till nex
t spring... YEAH praise GOD. Any of you who saw her at the wedding saw how good she looks!
  
I would also like to ask for prayer for my fellow hospice nurse Marnie who underwent a double mastectomy today by the other Dr. in my group.  She has exactly what I have but opted for this procedure...everyone is in a different place and there are many options, all with good results.

It has been great flying on Delta this month and seeing all the pink uniforms and support everywhere for the CURE.   Thanks to ALL!!   And again thanks to You all.

Back to eating bonbons and watching chick flicks with my baby girl.  I got to be with Trisha earlier this week and we went and saw The Secret Life of Bees
 (SOOOO Good)   Then I got to see Niki and keep my Lainey overnight....so what can be more therapeutic than that?

Until Monday,  In His Hands Debbi
