January Update

Since I’m doing so well these days, I don’t always have much to tell. But now I do have a couple more good news items. A year ago I had a bone density test which shows whether or not you have osteoporosis and the degree to which you have it. This was to get a baseline as I enter my “elderly” years. At that time, it showed my poor bones to be in the osteopenia range – a precursor to full blown osteoporosis. A year later – my bone density test shows improvement in all 3 areas tested. Two areas are back in normal range and the third is just a hair below normal. And this despite a bone cancer diagnosis!

On top of this, my last week’s tumor markers showed the most improvement so far – both well within normal range! Yipee!

Thanks for the many prayers.
