I'm Back

Hi Everyone! Just wanted to let you all know that I'm still here, still fighting the good fight. I have finished chemo for at least a little while. My body endured 7 months of chemo this time around and it was ready for a break! I am having a CT scan next week and will then get the results on Nov. 4th. I will let you know what the doctor says. When I had a scan back in July it showed that the tumors were shrinking but there was a 1mm "questionable" spot on my liver. So we are hoping and praying that the tumors have shrunk even more and am curious to hear what the doctor has in store for me next.
Even though I have cancer, life goes on. I had a fun summer at home with the kids and our little family was even able to take a vacation in July to San Diego. We went to Sea World and the San Diego Zoo. Aaron broke his collar bone right before leaving Sea World. His sandal fell off and he dove out of the stroller after it and starting screaming like I've never heard him scream before. Poor guy. I took him to the doctor when we got back and the X-ray showed that his right collar bone was broken right in half. There is really nothing you can do for a broken collar bone so we had to wait a few weeks and then take him to an orthopedist. They took more X-rays and the X-rays showed that the bone is healing just fine.

Hannah started kindergarten in September. She loves school and she loves her teacher. It has been such a great positive experience for her. I volunteer in the classroom once a week and I have a lot of fun doing it. Hannah also started wearing glasses recently. She chose her frames all by herself. They are purple and very cute. (Sorry I don't have a picture of her with the glasses yet!)

Aaron is finally starting to talk. He is getting so big that I can barely carry him anymore. He and I still go to our little storytime/music class once a week at the library. He is finally going to the nursery at church without any tears!
I'm sure you all heard about what happened to Scott at work last week so I won't go into the details. He and his employees are safe and sound. Scott says he's fine but I'm waiting for the PTS to set in. Then again, maybe he's just as tough as he says he is.
Life is good and life is busy. Thank you to everyone that has helped our family out over the last two years. We really appreciate it.
