I've served on one jury..it was an interesting process. I've been called again and again they don't like my answers! Now I filled out online for them to take me off their list im past 70 so don't have to go anymore.

I think it's good to have things to look forward to. If you want to start on your third novel, why not? It's okay that you haven't completed the others yet. You can always go back to those when you feel inspired. Many of us have various projects on the go, in various stages of completion. Everything has its time and place. Right now, why not go with what brings you some joy?
I hope the chemo will be over soon, and that you'll be on the path to healing.

I'm so sorry to hear this. I understand that it's very frightening. I hope and pray that everything will go well, and that you will be free of cancer soon.
On the 25th, I went to see my oncologist to get some answers. I got answers, but not all of what I wanted.
I know definitively that I have cancer. It is a carcinoma that is rare and aggressive. A three inch mass is situated against my cervix and abutting my bladder wall.
The last test I went through, a PET scan, on the 20th, showed about the only good news there has been: it hasn't spread.
The doctor doesn't want to do surgery if we can help it. It would be an eight hour ordeal and they would have to remove my bladder along with a hysterectomy.
The other alternative is chemo and radiation treatment, which when this all started I was dead set against.
The only other thing I got asked lately is how do I want to proceed if the quality of my life is not going to be improved for any significant length of time.
I said I would rather just be made comfortable live out what I have left.
