Hello everyone..
I have just celebrated to the max the 21st birthday of my dear daughter.
This time last year my lawyer, at my urgent request, had come to my home  even 
though they were closed for the festive season, because my prognosis was grim - 
metastisised breast cancer in the liver - splotches on all the bones and a 
large tumour in the bone in the upper arm and throughout the upper part of the 
bone in the  right leg.  I couldn't write and I needed crutches to walk. 
Rebecca I just loved hearing your wonderful news before christmas and I love 
your attitude. My oncologist also spookily forewarned "..... until you are 
back."  Lindy great to hear that the Gawler practices have staved off side 
effects and supported recovery. I believe they are working for me too.
However your emails have come at a good time for me coz they encourage me to 
stick to the diet and the meditating and the exercise and the positivity just 
when I am most challenged.  I am well - in remission. The cancer indicators and 
liver functions results have  shown normal now for the six months since the 
last chemotherapy treatment. in July.
There's stuff to deal to in the bones  but no scary pain to confirm this.  i 
have postponed a CT scan three times now.
When I told my acupunturist friend how difficult I was finding Christmas - ie 
to stick to the good food habits I have practised for almost a year now - she 
simply said you need to stock up your fridge with treats!  She provided me with 
some of those lovely allowable treats that come at the end of all our healthy 
cookbooks!  It was just great.  
Today I was looking at our Gawler photo - it has been a privilege to share with 
you and accompany you thro the network  over the past year. I  feel accompanied 
as I'm sure we all do - in our struggles, in our sad losses and yes in our 
conquests. 

All the best for 2010
Warm regards
Cherrie

Hi everyone.
Happy New Year to you all and hope 2010 brings everything you wish for.I have 
had a health scare recently. After being in remission all year my cancer came 
back aggressively on 11th December.So ended up at Peter Mac Hospital from 14th 
Dec to 15th Jan. Bummer of a Christmas. Good news is that the high dosechemo 
they gave me has knocked it on the head and am back in remission. Now they are 
going to do another stem celltransplant so will be back in hospital from 29th 
Jan for another month. Have got through the treatment without any side effects 
which I put down to the Gawler practices although very difficult to keep up 
with the food in hospital. Am goingto buy a small fridge next time and take my 
own food.I think of you all often and hope to be back at support group in 
Hawthorn soon.Also am planning on being in NZ in April/May to catch up.John - 
what is your new phone number - hope you are enjoying Tauranga.Has anyone heard 
how Patti is - no update since it wasn't looking too good.Bruce - do you have 
an update of who from the group has passed away.
Best wishesLindy
