Jory's first track meet.

Jory at his first track meet with St. Stan's. First time any of my kids have done track. It was nice to watch. Jory did get 2nd on the high jump. The relay they got 1st. Then I want to say in 400 he got 2nd. Not sure. It was fun though.






















Why do they start so low....maybe it's for short people like me....ha-ha....yes there are some short kids doing the high jump. I have to say they did a great job! Well done to St. Stan's & St. Paul's track team. All the kids did a great job.























Looks like he's floating in air. He does like the high jump. Who knows maybe he will do track in high school...who know's :)

Well here I go again....no hair...no biggie!

I'm a fighter....I am a cancer warrior.....I will survive...............



Well it was my choice to remove the hair that keep falling out and out. It comes to a point where you get so sick of it on you, in your hands when you wash your hair. It falls in your food. Which is truly gross!


I have to say it gives you the one up on cancer. Because you are the one who can control when the hair is shaved. I took the control and I made that choice. I won't let it control me. At any point in my fight with this cancer it will not control me.

Pictures from Oblong...family :)































This is my family..not all but those who could make it to Aunt Deanna's funeral. She is at peace now. For that I am thankful for.













Dad, Uncle Greg, Aunt Darlene & cousin's Gary & Jerry.

Another month of chemo.

Playing some "dice" LOL!





















Can you say OUCH!! Hmmmm...yeah forgot to put on the Lidocaine Cream.
Plus Kris took a picture of herself. Nice Kris....LOL!




Oh the hair thing. It's all good. I think I look pretty good with a buzz cut there. Give it another week and it will be all gone. My dad shaved his head...not like he had a lot of hair anyway....but for now I still have more than him! HA!










Well here is another month of chemo starting. That's Paula taking care of me. Jenn is some where around. I have to say these ladies are the best! I don't know how they do this day in and day out. Their angels!
So far Nicholas, Gina, Angie & Kris have joined me at chemo. I have to say Thank you to them!! Their awesome family & friends! Without them I don't know what I would do. Thank you!!
Plus a HUGE thank you to those who have made meals for us on Wednesday's. That's always chemo day. Kris also took on the meal planning for us. She makes sure on Wednesday's we have a meal. Thank you Kris.
She sent out those emails and lined up everyone who wanted to help. Everyone has been great!
Also a big Thank you to all my friends who have sent me cards, candy & bracelets. Thank you to all who have been praying for me. It's working! ;)
I feel so loved! That is a wonderful feeling. See acts of kindness help others. It makes me smile everyday.
Thank you everyone & I love all of you very much!!

GOOD NEWS!!!

Well Steve & I went to my doctor's appointment this morning. Dr. Kang had good news! PET scan went great. No cancer any where else. My cancer in the pelvic bone is smaller.

He said when we first started the cancer was at a level (think that's what he said) 6. Well he said anything under a 3 is normal.....................


MINE WAS A 2.1....WHOOT WHOOT!

Now how do you like that!

PLUS...........

So far Dr. Kang has taken 2 months off of my chemo! So only 4 months so far instead of 6....hehehe!
But as always we will see. He could put the 2 months back on. We just have to wait and see. So right now it's 4 months of chemo. 1 month down and 3 to go :)

She is one amazing friend! Think the world of her & always will :)
