Thanks to the help of Mean Mama, who was able to help expedite matters, I have an appointment on May 17th at Dana Farber with one of their best oncologists (and that means very, very good). The week will give my body time to flush the Gemcitabine out of my system and build up all my blood counts, not to mention finishing the healing of the rotator cuffs. (They're doing much better, by the way. I've been diligent or maybe even obsessive about doing the exercises and balancing bags of frozen peas on my shoulders as needed, and they feel so good that it's one less thing to worry about.)
And thanks to Arctic Mermaid's generosity in sharing some of her yarn stash, I have projects galore to keep me busy while I wait.
And thanks to all of you who've sent calls and messages of support. I can't imagine what it would be like to go through all this without you.

What do you do when you find out you have pancreatic cancer? Tell everyone about it, of course. Why "green bananas?" Because we keep buying them as a sign of faith in the future. What do we need from you? Good thoughts and the occasional bad joke.
