Friday morning my wonderful mother in law, Jane, took me to my mammogram / clip insertion appointment. I was so glad she was there to ease my mind and give me moral support! My father in law, Ron, played with Alana at home -- Thanks Ron!Once again, I praise great medical staff!! The women working at the Methodist Breast Center in Germantown are fabulous! The first woman took me back to get my history and she hugged me and said a prayer for me right there in her office. She sent me to Mary Ann, the leading mammogram lady, who did an incredible job making that experience not too uncomfortable. I went on from there to get an ultrasound which showed that the tumor has flattened and shrunk a centimeter. The doctor came in and was very good with the procedure to inject a 'clip' or marker in the tumor to detect the location later on when breast surgery comes. Then back into the mammography room for two more pictures to show the location of the clip and I was done!
A bit sore on Friday, and out of sorts, but that was probably due to the chemo treatment the day before. Finally got some good sleep on Friday night, thanks to Criag being my human body pillow! He's great.
Went hat shopping yesterday for a church hat. The world of hats is sure interesting! Lots of frilly choices. I went with this conservative red number!
Love you all!!

Hi Cheri. You look beautiful and positive. Watching you makes me want to be tougher and better and more positive. I'm so happy that your tumor is reducing! I love you and you're constantly in my prayers!
Hi Beautiful! I missed over a week of your blog, we were enjoying our family Sping Break in Oregon. We went to the Oregon Coast. The weather was good on our last day, but we still managed to find things to do. I am glad to hear that all is well. I love the red hat. You have such a great attitude towards this and so much support. I love visiting your blog often. You are my inspiration! I love you! Our prayers are with you.

i'm sure memphis has a terrific selection of goin' to meetin' hats. the red one is awesome. has alana helped you pick out hats yet? i took lucy shoe shopping last week and she brought over every pair of hot pink and purple shoes she could find. one pair was leopard print with a 4 to 5 inch clear acrylic heal and a giant hot pink flower on the toe- she informed me it was her favorite! anyway, i'm sure alana would have some good input. congrats to bryce! i hope we can figure out a time to see you guys when we're out there next week- love you- kelly
