((((Alex)))) - that's all... You deserve only the best! I'm glad you were able to walk Grady when you got home. You're unbelievably strong!
Take good care,
Lisa
I'm so glad you got some wonderful care and help! Hugs
I second Kelly's statement!!!!!
It's pretty sad when it's news-worthy when someone gets the care that they should have received all along - it should be the norm, not the exception. It's very good that you're happy with Duke. You deserve the best medical care that you can get - this is your life we're talking about. Good for you for leaving those dumb butt healthcare providers (cough) behind.
I'm glad your spirits are good.

I caught a cold in the hospital so it is rough. I am trying to get over it before my next chemo. My spirits are good. I walked my dog Grady today.
Hi Alex! This is good news! You feeling a bit better now?

JJ, I told Alex earlier that if Duke would take her as a patient, I would root for Duke for a year. Most of us root against Duke Blue Devils, mainly because we are jealous that they get the top talent and have a great coach and program.
I am so happy that Duke has taken Alex in for care.
So sorry that you have had such a rough ride recently but very happy that you have at last found a caring, compassionate medical team who have understood your needs and helped you to improve. No one deserves what you have been through and you are a very strong woman. I will continue to think of you and send you love and prayers.
Hugs, Sarah x
The Blue Devils are Duke's Sports Teams. It was Methodist College. They win a lot of college basket ball titles. The coach also coaches the American Olympic team. It is better than UNC which are the Tar Heels, no one knows what that means!
College basket ball is serious business so for Laura to say she will cheer for Duke that is a big deal.
Alex
I am always sorry to hear about the utter sh!t you've had to deal with, seriously going to Duke just has to be the best move ever, its a relief to know your being treated with the care and kindness we know you deserve!
HUGS........JJ
PS can someone please explain to the ozzie, what are the blue devils?
Hey Alex
Really happy to read about your excellent care for a change. You are a tough bird and a great advocate for managing your health but many times I hoped that you'd get a break.
I did think I'd start painting with you but funny how things change. Hopefully you can still find time for this gift. I've just decided to go back and study accounting at post graduate level so I guess my time is now taken up 'painting' by numbers.
Thinking of you and wishing you the very best
I've always liked the Blue Devils more than the Tar Heels anyway!
Kyle I actually I needed blood in May after surgery according to UNC. They in their wisdom would not give it to me. They told to go home and replenish my blood on my own. That kinda did not work. One reason I switched to Duke.
Alex
This is great news! So glad you found the caring doctors that you need. AT last you have a team that is working to get you better!
Be well and so glad you and your hubby are feeling cared for by these doctors. The ones you had previous should not be allowed to practice! Awful.
Big HUGS!
Tracy
I'm glad that you are getting the attention you need. As you are a non-complainer, it doesn't come as a complete shock that you required the level of replenishment you got. Maybe next time you might say something when your blood is 1 pint down?
Glad things are better :-)
Kyle
Continuing to keep you in my thoughts and prayers Alex. Sounds like you have good team there. Finally. Big hugs to you,
Michelle
I am so happy that you finally got attention and a good care. I hope they continue to take care of you.
My best,
Dagun
I guess I have to root for the Blue Devils now to keep my end of the deal. It's worth it if you are finally get good, compassionate care.
so glad that you have such good care now. And especially glad that your hubby and you are happy with the quality of care you are getting.
You are still in my prayers,
Candy
Great news !! So happy they put you on the right track to feeling well again.
Sending ripples of good thoughts, hugs, balloons and anything else to help you celebrate!
So happy for you!

Alex,
Glad to hear you are getting great care! Sending thought and prayers that you feel better soon!
Wow Alex, this is great news. I am so happy that you are finally getting the care you deserve! Duke sounds wonderful.
I hope it's sunny roads ahead for you :)
Keep getting better my friend!
(((hugs)))
Deb
Glad to hear they have you in a comfortable place Alex and hope they will be caring for you from this point forward. My sister was always pleased with the care she received there.
Welcome Back!
SOOO glad you are being taken care of.
I've been trying so hard not to worry about you and figured that you were indeed very ill, as you had claimed.
May it give you peace of mind to know that you are now in good hands.
Thank you Duke for taking care of this very special woman and giving her the care she, and all patients, deserve.
I'm rooting for you all the way!
