Eh!
Been having some hip pain recently, thought it was another tumor on my hip(I know, worst case scenerio always pops into my head)
After having an xray and speaking to the Ortho surgeon, I apparently just have weakened bones from hip radiation a year ago. He recommends partial hip replacement ASAP. So onto another surgery on Friday am. Should be a pretty simple surgery(compared to some I've had.)
I gotta tell ya, between the hysterectomy, hot flashes and hip replacement I feel about 40 years older than I am!

In the meantime been waiting for IRB approval to start the redose of ALT-801. Grateful they haven't let me start yet since this hip problem came up. Now I can get this surgery done with, heal up and be all ready for redose in a few weeks!
I met a nice Stage IV lady and her family today, Jackie! Dr introduced us as she's getting ready to start ALT after she has some radiation to her hip. Her sister said she had visited the board and noticed we lived only 20 minutes apart! Hate that another person is having to go through this but nice to meet someone!
Super fun times folks!
