October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Mary Jo and I want to thank Richard Moody and his team (Jodi & Lou) for all their hard work and dedication in producing the 2011 "ROCK THE PINK" party. The event is a great party with the purpose of raising lots of money by means of a silent action in support of Delta Airlines employees who are battling cancer. Last year Mary Jo was one of the benefactors and this year we were fortunate to able to attend and contribute. Mary Jo received good news from her oncologist, Dr Mathew Gall last Friday at her quarterly check up. All of Mary Jo's blood work labs reported normal. Dr Gall gave Mary Jo a complete physical examination and he is very pleased with Mary Jo's progress. Mary Jo is due for one more quarterly examine around December were she will get a full examination, chest x-ray, blood work and a bone density scan (Dexiscan) and a Mugascan. With the anticipated clear report at that two year post chemo milestone, Mary Jo will graduate to seeing her oncologist on a once every six month schedule. This is a really big milestone for survivors and feel so blessed to be nearing this milestone date. Mary Jo is feeling good and doing very well. She is packing right now getting ready for her trip (working) to Amsterdam this evening.
