    Hello Friends!

    Please break out your happy dance shoes and do the happy dance with me!  I had scans today and I am now officially 3 years NED!

    I don't post often (only if I have something new to say) but this site has been a huge blessing and encouragement to me in my journey.

    Wishing NED to all of you!

        Hi Mary,

        Thanks for your good wishes!

        I went back to the Angeles Clinic and saw Dr. Boasberg. 

        I very much like the staff at the Angles Clinic & I like the idea of having my scans all done at the same place on the same machine, so I figured I'd give Dr. Boasberg a try, see how it is.  I also like having my scans done in the morning and seeing the dr & getting the results in the afternoon– saves on time, gas and more importantly anxiety and if I didn't like it I could always change drs & clinics.

        But I like Dr. Boasberg,  He was gentle, kind and friendly, and wanted to get to know me as a person as well as a patient.  He answered all my questions, even when they were redundant and I don't doubt his competence as a Dr.  So for what I need right now, I"m good with staying at the Angeles Clinic. 

        Blessings,

        Julie
