On Friday we have an appointment with the oncologist to hear the results of the PET scan I took two days ago. We will see if I’m ready for the mastectomy. Then on Monday, we have an appointment with the surgical oncologist.
It’s almost a month since I last posted. Hard to believe that just two weeks ago I was sitting on a Horizon plane at the Walla Walla airport for an hour while the plane was de-iced, twice. I’m so happy to see more of the sun.
Last weekend, I was at my sister's house in Olympia and I read "The Long Winter," the Little House book by Laura Ingalls Wilder, a book I've read many times. Of course, I wouldn't compare our winter with six months of lethal prairie blizzards, but I enjoyed reading of Laura and her family's joy of seeing spring come.
This photo was taken a few weeks ago by a friend, Kimberly Miner. Nowdays, I typically wear a scarf in public, but here is what I look like with no hair. For the record.

Dear Rosa,
The Little House Stories are one of my favorites. Spring is the best time
with all the new life and flowers and more sunshine--especially after a cold winter, even though the snow sparkled like diamonds.
I'm so happy that your treatments have been effective. We continue to pray that you will experience a full recovery.
Have a Happy Sabbath,
Love,
Brenda
Rosa,
You are such a beautiful person, both inside and out! You look fabulous with no hair. I love it!! Your smile lights up a room. I am so looking forward to spring as well. It is always so rejuvenating and refreshing! :) I pray for you and your family. You are a special person and a blessing to so many. Keep your chin up, girl!
Love,
Rashel Rosaasen
I love this photo of you--almost makes me want to find out what MY scalp looks like. (Only almost.) And I love the ones with you and Bella and the pink scarf. I can tell her hugs are excellent medicine!
Love,
Jan
