Chris Gall, dinosaur trucks and good news.

May 07, 2009 @ 10:31 pm by The Book Babe - Uncategorized

I just came back from dinner with one of my favorite people, Chris Gall. He was the only picture book author from PBB. He is a wonderful person, and an incredible artist and author. We talked about many fun things, including his new book called Dinotrux. It is about dinosaur trucks, and is seriously one of the coolest picture books ever! I totally love it! It was recently bought by Dreamworks so we will be able to see the movie in a few years. Yay! I love it when great things like that happen for my friends.

This afternoon, I was finally able to convince my oncologist’s nurse that one week was not nearly enough time to recover from surgery before having another chemo treatment. So, she moved my next chemo treatment back by three weeks. I was relieved, I was not looking forward to having chemo one week after being cut open. And now I don’t have to worry about it. Very exciting. Or something….

Your powers of will and persuasion have not succumbed one tiny bit to those…those…evildoer pirates!

Dear Faith ~ Just wanted you to know that I am thinking of you and have been praying for you! I am a 35 year old breast cancer survivor for 4 years now, so I can honestly say with force, that cancer sucks! However, you aren’t alone, and that is awesome! If you want to ask questions off line I’ll send you my email – it helped me to talk to others who had gone before me – even if it was a “stranger”, but we aren’t really strangers, we are cancer sisters….. it is just another option! I’ll be praying you through!
ps – it IS very exciting that you can wait a little longer for another round of chemo…. ;o)
