Wednesday, September 14th
My Vanderbilt appointment is set for Sept. 28th. It will just be a morning flight down there and return the following afternoon. My dad will meet me down there and drive me where I need to go. So that gives me two weeks to organize things and get ready for the Chemotherapy and Radiation therapy which I assume will start Monday October 3rd.
I have not gotten results on my bone scan yet!. I feel great. I plan to go back to work on Friday and I plan to continue to work as much as possible. My Oncologist said there is no restriction on working as long as I feel up to it. I want to thank everyone for all the encouraging e-mails, cards prayers and positive thoughts. It is so comforting. We remain optimistic and are hoping and praying for a long remission.
Thank you so much,
Denise & Napper

Denise,so glad to hear your feeling great!Stay strong!!!We are praying positive thoughts for you.Thats great you are going back to work. Thats also good news you have a Vanderbilt appointment. All our love, Shannon,Diane,Sarah,and Ike
Denise,
I'll introduce myself as Karen's aunt...the one who covets and adores the photographs you have taken of Derek and Kailey. You have a real talent for capturing their spirits.
Karen shared your story with me tonight. I wanted to let you know a couple of things. First, I can second the opinion someone else voiced about how good Vanderbilt is. A friend underwent some testing there when she was going through her struggle with cancer. She had nothing but good things to say.
Second, I live in Memphis, but have a cabin midway between there and Nashville. So it's only a hop, skip, and jump for me to get to Nashville. If you need anything at all while you're there (i.e., if your Dad can't make it and you need a driver...or whatever), I could assist you. Karen speaks so highly of you that I feel comfortable in making that offer. In other words, I really mean it!
And now...advice from Aunt Kerry: Keep strong in your resolve, surround yourself with people who maintain positive thoughts, and remember to laugh out loud at least twice a day.
