Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 28 11:20 am)
Quote - congratulations :)
you should have a week long party to celebrate :D Or buy something expensive to treat yourself :D
I"m getting my hair done tomorrow. The place I go charges extortion rates, so that's my treat! hehe
Plus I think I want to buy myself a new ring and plan on stopping at Ben Moss Jewelers to look around. Nothing really fancy, just something plain and simple, a daily reminder of how fragile and short life is.

Congrats to you, praise God for your health, strength and recovery.

that is just so good news :) You must be beaming and feeling on top of it. Continued great things and I will be thinking of you.
Acadia, you're such a helpful and thoughtful person all the time, its truly amazing. This is karma to you for sure :)
Quote - I just got back from my 6 week follow-up to my July 7th surgery for endometrial cancer.
I got the pathology results back today. The news is good! The cancer hadn't spread so surgery is all that I need!
I have to have very close monitoring for the next 6 years, a physical exam every 3 months for the next 2 years, gradually decreasing in frequency until 6 years. Then I'll be discharged from the clinic and considered "cured."
But for now I'm cancer "free" which is a huge relief!I go back to work on August 30th, as planned.

To be honest, i didn't know about your former illness.
Reading that news i am happy for your and wish You the best Acadia.
We have nice weather here in munich, so i will go out in a "beer-garden"
now to drink some beers. I will lift my first glass to salute you :)
(wanna see more happy people)
hope i expressed that right in english.
xuu4u your English is just fine! Enjoy those beers!
I had my dinner and some Merlot yesterday. I was just too tired on Thursday to cook, so I had some fruit and went to bed early.
Today I went out and bought myself a ring. I'm going to have the date of the pathology report engraved on the inside as a daily reminder of how lucky I am.
I got a really good price on it. 20% sale discount. They are sizing it at no charge plus giving me an additional 10% off.
Here is a picture of it. It isn't as big as it looks in the picture. It's just a nice size to wear on my pinky finger.
I'm currently on unpaid medical leave so i put it on lay away until sometime in September. They tried to get me to buy on credit and don't pay for 6 months, but I would rather wait and pay it outright and own it, rather than have the bill looming over my head for 6 months.

Hi Linda,
WOW !!! That's one beautiful ringy-dingy. Thanks for posting the pic.
Engraved? Super idea!
May I ask ...What's a beaut like that cost anywho? (ballpark) (I'm just curious)
cheers,

It was on sale and I got some extra discounts (free resizing plus an additional 10%... I haggled!). With taxes and the extended protection plan which includes future resizings, cleanings, diamond replacement in the event of diamond loss and some other things which I can't remember, it was about $450.00. The regular price was $599.00. So I'm thrilled!
The picture makes it look huge! But it really isn't. It's 10k white gold with .20 Carats of diamonds which you have to squint to see if you want to see each one individually. It has nice sparkle though!

It certainly appears that besides your good taste in jewelry, you have excellent haggling skills.
I would have guessed the cost much higher than that for such a beauty.
I hope you wear it for many, many years.

@Acadia
well, beck from drinking my beers (got 4):
I held my promise to salute you with the first glass, 2 times.
meaning, from the bottom of my heart , just truly , simply wish you the best for your future.
i think i can say that because i have some "bitter" experience with cancer in my family.
About your ring, (that looks sooooo beautiful)
We (humans) need things to hold on, THAT ring may be your thing to hold on.
In general, one of our human strength is to never give up, because you ARE human, you have this strength inside you. (Just gets forgotten too many times)
Once i met a greece wise man, he told me that one task in our lives is to find the right keys.
Keys, yes there are so many, how to find them ?
For me one of these key's is music.
I am very much related to / concerned by music (srry not sure that this is expessed well, so
i say "music" or songs, or mp3's or you name it , means a lot for me.)
Thinking shortly about your positive message - and what it means for me - to be happy for YOU, 2 songs appears in my brain.
First one would be, "Ozzy Osbourne - Symptom of the Universe, and i MEAN the soft part it the end, not the hard-rock part at the beginning.
(just simply explains what happiness is for me, or what i'm dreaming off:)
Second one would be , Offer Nissim - Happy People.
Writing that, hearing "Derek Sherinian - Man with no Name" you can call me
crazy, poser addicted, or any thing that comes across your brain.
and yes, i love rock music, and yes im very much concerned to this,
and yes i better stop now.
Quote - When I heard I went off to drink rice wine! Congratulations, and the ring is super. Have you considered modeling it as a freebie? :)
I don't know how to model things.

"Cancer Free" is one of the sweetest phrases you will ever hear. Congratulations!
The ring is beautiful, too. It's a perfect reminder of a day of wonderful news.
I wish you continued good health!
