Descriptions, recommendations, and reviews about my travels. All information is based on experience, and all opinions are my own. Monday, April 23, 2007. Tuol Sleng Museum and The Killing Fields, Phnom Penh, Cambodia. First They Killed My Father. A moving description of life under the Khmer Rouge written by Luong Ung.

Kate's Travel Blog: Mekong Hotel, Kampong Cham, Cambodia
http://katemvtravels.blogspot.com/2007/05/mekong-hotel-kampong-cham-cambodia.html
Descriptions, recommendations, and reviews about my travels. All information is based on experience, and all opinions are my own. Friday, May 11, 2007. Mekong Hotel, Kampong Cham, Cambodia. The hotel is located not far from the bus stop, but with our bags we opted to take a tuk-tuk anyway. After checking in, we trudged up the giant staircase to the spacious halls of the second floor. Our corner room had windows over looking the river, plenty of space, and a hot shower. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Kate's Travel Blog: Angkor Wat
http://katemvtravels.blogspot.com/2007/05/angkor-wat.html
Descriptions, recommendations, and reviews about my travels. All information is based on experience, and all opinions are my own. Friday, May 18, 2007. So much has been written about the temples of Angkor Wat. That I’m not going to go into too much detail about everything we did. Instead, I’ll focus on some of our highlights and favorites. We did this steep climb, too! It’s pretty scary, but worth it to see what’s up there. We made it. Great views of the treetops! That is definitely southeast Asia.

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Thursday, September 30, 2010. Hi all- I am, ideally, going to be over at The Dilettante Traveler. For the next couple months. Come along for the ride! Tuesday, September 28, 2010. I had my late-evening MRI last week, and it turned out to be pretty much late-. Day (sort of) back! Strong. Healthy. Well. It All Plays Together. Note: I began writing this post about 10 days ago, but the message is still valid so here I go completing it, and sending it off anyway. Suggestio...

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Wednesday, May 18, 2011. Wherein Witch Doctor Dan Makes a Diagnosis* that is Subsequently Corroborated by the Western Medical Establishment. My words only. Dan cannot and does not actually diagnose. When I met Daniel Lane NIS Specialist. This version)" to me as a kid, so naturally that's where I went after my first appointment with this seemingly incongruous method of healing. Yes, we start to see that around the two-to-three year mark after full-brain radiation," sai...

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Wednesday, November 10, 2010. A Gift for my Trip. Evening, with a trip to the airport at 4:30pm (thanks, Ian! Anyway, my MRI last week was stable (confirmed by Nurse Sarah on Saturday after the official report came in), and just now I received a copy of my blood test results from last week and it seems that Xeloda (or something, but likely Xeloda) is. Thank you, Universe. Tuesday, November 9, 2010. Today is my 38. Birthday. On my 30. This morning I had a therapy sessi...

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Wednesday, August 31, 2011. In celebration of my decision to just say no to poop pills, I made myself a giant latte this morning, my usual—split quad grande with whole milk—after days and days of being careful about the caffeine/lactose ratio (the combo can be quite the roto rooter). I had been having a mere 1 shot americano or some such thing, just enough to stave off withdrawal headaches on top of everything else. Um, yeah. Guts not ready for the big time. I did a q...

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Saturday, January 22, 2011. The Most Important Lesson. In my post the other day. I mentioned remembering my lessons- live in the moment, be grateful, walk the dogs, hug Ian. The lesson I had forgotten to mention was this: There is ALWAYS enough time. Friday, January 21, 2011. Since then, we've discovered the following things: for normal drugs, my mail-order pharmacy is Medco. For special drugs, i.e., Xeloda, Medco has a high-end pharmacy called Accredo tha...Once all ...

I Thought I Was Done With This . . . Tuesday, August 24, 2010. I'm in Idaho right now and, true to form, Spackle has again been somewhat mirroring my own medical issues—in this case the procedure even had the same name. My lumpectomy was 11 years ago, of course, and took out a malignant tumor and his was yesterday and took out two benign cysts, but nevertheless. Like mother, like dog. Read about it here.
