Update

Just updating on here today.

I've had 7 treatments as of today. So I have 12 radiation treatments to go. I'm doing very well with it. So far my skin isn't dry, red or painful. I have 3 spots that they "zap" me in. Not fun having the cancer back in your spine. Wonder why it chose there...hmmm! Well at least all is well so far. I should be done by Dec 22. Or at least I hope.

Then I will have a PET scan in January to see if we stopped the cancer & make sure no more has showed up. Then I will be back into remission again. So let's all hope so. And cross those fingers & toes that the cancer is gone.

Alright so let's change the subject to something amazing :)

So my sister in law Jennifer gave me this photo contest information. I had to pick 5 photo's for Harbor Country contest. Well ALL 5 of my pictures were picked!! WOW! I was one of the 10 artist picked. So then they have to gallery opening. We go to it and I was told then I was one of 3 artist picked for the final........can you say....OMG!!! Well I did.....LOL!

The pictures that I picked were the one's I took the day I had the CT Scan and I was crying while taking the pictures. Those pictures are the one's that let me be picked for the contest. I am so blessed to have been picked for this.

A thank you goes out to Jennifer for giving me the information for the contest. Now I have to pick 3 of any of my photo's for the next round of the contest. Mind you if I win my photo will be on the cover of Harbor Country mag. WOW! So now I have to choose some new photo's.....ekkkkkkkkkk!

So good things come from a very bad day. I guess you can say when the double rainbow came out I think that was god's way of telling me that it's going to be ok.

Alright must go. Thank you to all who check up on me & read my blog. I hope I help just one person out there.

Thanks everyone :)
