Here goes... Thank you!!!

I know I'm not out of the water YET but I need to take a moment to say the biggest thank you's EVER to the absolutely wonderful people that are on my medical "team" and that help me every single day (And all of you know how pestering and annoying I can be when I want to). Since I JUST finished my radiation yesterday (July 11th), I'd love to be able to express my utmost thanks to all my Doctors and Therapists: Sandy, Peter, Yvette, Donna, Dr. Baker, Dr. Conterado, Mary and EVERYone else that endured my five weeks of radiated torture there! And of course, to supporting me (and my bracelet endeavor) the whole time!

I love you guys...but I never want to see you again! (I'm sure you understand why).

And I must share my love and fondness for the awesome people at the Radiology department who have been dealing with me since March 21st, and just may have finally gotten rid of me today with the new "all clear" I got on my port-a-cath site!

To Mick, Lisa, and of course, the superstar Dr. Edelman, thank you all soooooooo much for accomodating me whenever I just happened to pop up. (And thanks for the candy Mick. Made the stitching just that much easier).

Now, I must not forget the man I see the most, the infallible Dr. Kaplan! Him and his right hand man Justin are the best. They've adjusted to my foul mouth and strange brand of humor, and are always immediately available whenever I have a whine or gripe. The staff in his office are also incredibly awesome. Specially that wonder phlebotomist Alvin... I'll request you every time!

Soon enough I'll be ranting and raving about my phenominal surgeon Dr. Saclarides, but seeing as I've yet to have to "go there" I'll save his praises for a section all to it's own.
