Just want to wish all of you a Happy Easter and a Blessed Passover. Hope whoever you are that the weather is pleasant and you are enjoying life as much as possible. I think of all of you as my family and keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi Merry, considering all that is going on since the last tests I am doing pretty well. Yesterday I spent almost all day working in my yard. We had a large storm cone through here with high winds & heavy rains, making a big mess to clean up. Fortunately we have an excellent helper who came to lend a hand. When fatigue hits I just take a few minutes break & am good to go for a couple of hours longer. Finding staying busy is good mentally as well as physically. Turning 80 in 2 months & planning a celebration. Hoping to still be here for the fun!🎉🥂🎂🥂🎉
Thank you for bringing me back to the Lung Cancer Group. My GP found that I also have a fungal infection. Now on a special antibiotic to fight this new problem. The journey continues!

@lady1lake- I am so glad to hear that you are hanging strong! I agree that staying busy is a huge help, for everything, if you can of course. Keeps the body making all new synapses? We will have to make you a cake! Maybe someone can paint and post one? @parus, @lioness?

Merry You are the best! Keeping the spirits up is paramount to not let cancer define who we really are. Go about life like You own it, not that it owns You.

I can relate & opted for the artificial multi-focal artificial lense 5 years ago. Now have 20/20 vision in both eyes. First time not to wear any glasses in over 40 years😊

lady1lake Am fascinated by the artificial multi-focal artificial lenses. Did this come about due to cataracts? I am due soon for that surgery and would give anything for NO glasses and my old 20/20 vision. Sounds wonderful.

@alamogal635 Thanks. Currently observing Passover. The weekend was quiet and uneventful.

The lense replacement was very easy. No plain at all, just have to remember to take the prescribed drops at the right times. Fortunately my sweet husband helped me keep track of those time periods. Now having finished with all of that regime everything is very good. The lense does take a little longer time to adjust to brightness or dimness of light, according to variances.
