shortshot80) Nancy.......Colleen & Teresa, if possible I hope you can help? I was printing all the pages that I have written on for the past couple years since Jan 2016. Well my son/driver/computor helper Deleted Incredimail from my computer which took out all the writings since August 2017. Is it possible to get those pages from August back so I can print them off? In my journey with the lung cancer, I thought If I could print them Off I would have my own book of my journey. Perhaps some day some one could read of my problems, travels, and however long the journey lasts. If possible it would really be wonderful. Thanks so much. Nancy

Yes, I think you can do it yourself. If you click on your name as it appears in blue, "@shortshot80" it will take you to your profile which should list all of your posts since you began with Mayo Connect. Then you should be able to print off each page. Try it and see how it works and let me know if you are successful.
Teresa
Thank you, it does, but the first item I wrote is at the bottom of the page, I don't know how to change the pages for the bottom to be at the top. Any suggestions? Every page is the same ....the oldest date is at the bottom. Help????? Nancy

1 Reaction@shortshot80 I don't think it is possible to change the order, Nancy. I'll tag @colleenyoung to see if she has any ideas.
Teresa
Hi Nancy, Teresa is correct. On your profile, the order of your posts appears in reverse chronological order, from newest to oldest. I'm afraid the order cannot be switched to read oldest to newest. 🙁

I've been thinking about you. The last time you posted you had a tea to attend and also a birthday party. I hope that you had a good time.
How are you feeling? I hope that you and your family are enjoying this Christmas season.
Teresa
Hi Teresa, I had a great time at the tea. There were 24 ladies there. Each brought a goodie to eat. I took white fudge with cranberries & walnuts./ Everyone also brotght a "white elephant gift" I ended up with a cup that has a infusier (sp) for loose tea. Very nce. The birthday party was great. I was the only one invited from church. Birthday cake was something I have never heard of. Pasor wife beat egg whites till stiff and put them in pie pan and bake them She made six of the pan's of egg whites. When done and after dinner, she whipped sweet cream till stiff and put the "cake" together with the whipped cream with three "cake"s and then put blackberries, blue berries and dark charries on the top. Really good! some crunchy & sweet. I was really pleased to be there. Megan liked the two old books. I hear she has made some cookies. Will see if some come to church. . Me I have been very tired. I have to see Doc on Friday 12/22 and have a blood test and if it is alright I will have hemo on the 26th.
My husband, Bob, hi s brother Ray passed away from a softball size cancer in his head. He has been dealing with this for a little ofer a year. There will be a celebration of life soon. I don't think we can go, we live on the Oregon coast and Ray and his family live in Boise,, Idaho. .....shortshot800 Nancy PS ( Everyone have a wonderful Holiday week.

I'm so glad to hear that you had such a nice weekend with the tea and the party. I'm not familiar with the cake made of the egg whites, but it sounds wonderful!
I'm sorry to hear that Bob's brother passed away. It is too bad that you live a distance from them.
I hope that all goes well with you on the 22nd and the 26th. Looking forward to hearing from you after the holidays. Will you be having company for Christmas dinner?
Teresa
