We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. One of Ethan's parents from his class brought us a delicious home cooked dinner! What a treat. He also gave us a frozen turkey as well! So, lots of thanks to Chuck for a fabulous roast beef and potatoes dinner.
On Thanskgiving day for lunch, we were invited over at my sister's family and then for dinner, had a potluck Turkey dinner over at my brother's place. It was good to see my family and catching up with everyone. It was especially nice that my brother had it at his place since I got to see my old cat. Since my diagnosis, we adopted her out to my brother. She's turning out to be such a beautiful cat now. I'm glad she's in a good home. We fostered her temporary and rescued her and her five kittens from my nanny's yard about a year ago this time. Definitely, pets bring so much warmth and comfort. It was so warming and healing to see her.
With the holidays coming, the kids are excited about Christmas. They've been asking their Dad to decorate the house and about getting a Christmas tree, presents, Santa, Gingerbread house and have been singing all the tunes of the holiday songs. And so, day by day, as I help watch the kids, their Dad is getting the lights and trimmings almost all up.
As for me, I'm thankful for a great Thanksgiving weekend and for everyday that I am here with my family. I'm keeping busy with the kid's activities as well as spending as much time as I can with them teaching, coaching and working with them on their reading, writing and math skills. Mostly, I'm working very hard with each of them to help them become a beginner reader. I think it takes alot of love, patience and lots of tedious, dedicated hard work to raise educated, good readers and thinkers as well as well rounded, social, responsible kids.
As for me, I'm still going to my acupuncture appointments in hopes it helps heals. I'm not sure it helps, but hopeful it does something good. I'll being getting a CT scan again next Tuesday and will find out next week if my current Gemzar chemo is helping stabilize the tumors. It's been about 2 weeks now that I haven't had any treatment. With Gemzar, I'm suppose to get it every week for 2 weeks in a row and then have the third week off. But, last week, I didn't get it due to having low blood counts. Let's hope for good news and stability. Lots of Love.
