I keep meaning to get together with you for coffee or something, if not for a ride.  I've been very bad lately, riding motorcycles (just bought a second) instead of bicycles.  Would you be up for a ride Saturday?  I figure if I agree to a time now, I won't back out or find excuses. I'm so sorry!  I should read my newsgroups more often. I'm not too reliable with it either, so I totally understand. Sometimes Usenet isn't quite the most important thing in life. The trailer at University is gone.  They have two rooms now next to the mri room for pet/ct. The CT machine at Lutheran is amazing.  I think it's 64 heads while the ct machine at UCH is only 48. Slower but fast enough. :-)  Lutheran now sends pet/ct to a place out in Denver West on the west side of i70. I'm not familiar with the Littleton facility. My onc is at the Littleton branch of Rocky Mountain Cancer Centers, sort of behind Marie Callendar's on the West side of Broadway, at Dry Creek.  They have a trailer, actually it may be more like an RV with the engine in it, on certain days, with all the scan equipment in it. The trailer goes from one facility to another, so they get a lot of use from the equipment without the patients having to travel so much. Or that's the theory.  Since I live out here in Applewood, it would be a lot more convenient to go to the RMCC facility off Simms, somewhere around 2nd.  I just can't get the admin folks to schedule me there. Had a pet/ct on Thursday and the friday results appointment was canceled until Monday. Though I'm concerned, my wife is on the ceiling. The last few years have been much more harder on her then on me. I'm afraid that this weekend is bad. For my scans, it's always taken them a while to get results.  Even when I have every expectation of "nothing of interest", it's stressful.  It must be much worse when you have more reason to expect problems.  I think cancer is often worse on the caregivers than the patients.  I know my wife took the news worse than I did.  I hope you get your news soon, and that it's good. We can shoot for next weekend or the following? If you ride GMnt, let me know and perhaps we can meet at a coffee or sandwich shop for a break. AFAIK, either of the next two weekends would be fine.  If there isn't time for a ride, coffee would work too.  How about we plan for a ride next Saturday, starting about 10:00am?  Where would be a good place to meet? --- CSM Subject  Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time  Re: Roll call to alt.support.cancer - One more time
