Hello from Trisha!



"Hi, Everybody! Trisha here! Just wanted you all to know I'm fine!

Big news! I finished my six-week course of chemo and radiation treatments!!!! (for now at least!). My hair has definitely headed for the hills. Turns out I have a beautiful cranium!
The docs will soon do tests and see how they'd like to proceed with more possible treaments. Also, my steroid dose is down to a more manageable level so I'm feeling a bit more *normal*.

So all in all, I am feeling pretty capable and hardy, and my energy is very good! I even spent the whole weekend at a close friend's house in the South Bay Area! Fun was had by all. Thanks for your thoughts, prayers, and comments. I appreciate every one of them very much! Love, Trisha"
p.s. in case you want to read the fine print on my beautiful certificate, it reads, "Patricia Callahan has completed the prescribed course of Radiation Therapy with a high order of proficiency in the Art of being cheerful, outstanding in high courage, tolerant and determined in all orders given. It is recognized by our staff as an Honorable Achievement, and we would like to congratulate you, on a job well done."
