more from the Dysh...

I saw the oncologist last Wednesday and all of my blood work was completely normal. My CA125 is 7.3, the same as last month and definitely within normal limits. I feel great, my strength and energy are coming back much faster than I had anticipated, so are my weight and my hair.

My dear friend, Kathleen, sent me this story, which I can definitely relate to. Just had to share it with all of you.


There once was a woman who woke up one morning,
looked in the mirror,and noticed she had only three hairs on her head.
'Well,' she said, 'I think I'll braid my hair today.'
So she did and she had a wonderful day. The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and saw that she had only two hairs on her head.
'H-M-M,' she said, 'I think I'll part my hair down the middle today.'
So she did and she had a grand day. The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that she had only one hair on her head.
'Well,' she said, 'today I'm going to wear my hair in a pony tail.'
So she did, and she had a fun, fun day. The next day she woke up,
looked in the mirror and noticed that there wasn't a single hair on her head.
'YAY!' she exclaimed. 'I don't have to fix my hair today!'
Attitude is everything.
Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
Live simply,
Love generously,
Care deeply,
Speak kindly.......
Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning to dance in the rain.



I have the best life ever and I'm dancing as fast as I can.

Love,
Nyshie

Nysh dishes..........

Paul and I just spent a wonderful weekend at Red Feather Lakes, North of Ft. Collins. Big Al's brother, Dean, owns a cabin there and generously let us stay there for the long weekend. The weather was perfect, the cabin lovely with beautiful views. My strength has come back enough for a great day of fly fishing with yummy fresh trout, which we caught for dinner. My next bloodwork is September 24th, so will put an update on the blog after that.

Also, my parents and sister returned home after evacuating to find no damage to either home, so all is well with them following Gustov.

Life is Great!!!

Love you all,

Nyshie
