well we met with dr. peethambaram and ALL of ginny's fungal and bacterial tests have come back negative...confirming dr. p's first response to the "spots" in the lungs...it is simply inflammation caused by the 6 rounds of chemo and is not an infection...so ginny has been taking steroids for the past two weeks...at her check up this week her lung x-rays are showing improvement...ginny is coughing less... september 20th we go again for a CT scan...to check on the lungs and also to take a look at the original cancer sites and make sure that they are behaving...ginny feels good and is looking great...
to change the subject completely...i started teaching at riverland community college this week...I AM LOVING IT! it feels really great to be there...in 1996 i decided that i wanted to teach at the college level and after 8 years of college and an additional 6 years of waiting after getting my master's degree...here i am...i am so glad that i am liking it...it would stink if i didn't given the time waiting....
i am teaching introduction to sociology, cultural diversity and sexuality and relationships...i have to say that my favorite class is Sexuality and Relationships...so much fun!
