Back to the Big Easy

Hello All
Cathy here again. Just wanted to pass along some good news! Ellen and I will be moving back to New Orleans, hopefully mid November if all goes well. We spent a few days there last week and located a beautiful home in the Riverbend area, which we both love. It will be close to the streetcar, several business's and many friends. I haven't seen Ellen this happy for a very long time, so we both know this is absolutly the best decision in many ways. Ellen will be closer to her family in Lafayette, which is only two hours away. We have met with a Doctor in New Orleans who is experienced in working with the type of cancer Ellen has and who will work with Dr. Nick in Orlando in handling Ellen's care. It is all good and we are both excited to be returning home.
Ellen is doing well right now. We have another MRI and visit with Dr. Nick on October 27. Hopefully, the bleed will have been reabsorbed and a clear view of the tumors will reveal they have become smaller in size. Maybe the damn little bastards have completly disappeared. That is obviously my very most biggest hope. I suspect you all probably feel the same way..............
I'll write again soon.
love to all and thanks so much for your kind thoughts and wonderful prayers.

That is WONDERFUL news! I am so happy to think you will be back in town. Can we get you to come over for a Saints' game? Or dinner? I hope the move goes well, and that you get good results with that next MRI. Mary Ann and I are leaving for France tomorrow, but will be back by the end of October. Let us know if we can help you in any way. Love, Pam
