Hope in the Snow...

Had to put a couple pics of Hope out enjoying herself in the snow. It was finally warm enough outside to let her check things out. She loved it!

Woo Hoo!! Cancer Free!!

I just got my results in of my PET scan from Monday. The radiologist report showed a Benign reading. Yeh!!! Good news. There are some areas that are still showing up on scan but I guess they are what they consider within "normal limits" and at this time are believed to be benign. Hopefully they will stay that way. I will continue to have these scans every 6 months. They will watch these areas of concern closely. I pray they do not start to grow. I need to get back on my diet and stop eating so much sugar. That is what cancer feeds on so I'm going to try and do better with my eating..... no more pop. That's the hardest one for me. And Lord knows I need to lose some weight. Thanks everyone for your well wishes and prayers. Love you all!

Snow Day....

The girls are home for a snow day today. They have been making lots of messes and complaining when I tell them to pick up after themsleves. They had been bugging me all day to let them go out and play in the snow/sleet. So finally I said ok but only if dad would go out with them. Too cold for me. Thank goodness for dad's, huh? They're good for something- just kidding! Anyway, they weren't out for long but they got to have a little fun. Poor Hope was left out of the loop...napping. I wouldn't have let her anyway she's still trying to get over a really bad cold. Doing much better though. Here's those crazy girls out playing.

PET scan tomorrow & Hope Udate

I'm scheduled for my 6 month PET scan tomorrow. Can't believe its already time again. I am so nervous and I am sooooo hoping its negative. PLease say a little prayer for me tomorrow that everything comes back negative for recurrence. It's been 3 yrs remission and I want it to stay that way!! I will update once I have the results.

** Update on Hope... she is doing a little better. I have seen glimpses of her here and there. She is still sleeping a lot and has a nasty little cough. Her drainage and snotty nose seem to be a little better too. Poor baby, I think this is the worst cold she has had in her short little life. Please continue to pray she feels better soon.

Hope's not feeling so hot....

Tuesday night Hope was restless all through the night. She continually cried. The next morning her nose was crusted over with dried snot and she was starting to cough. It has gradually gotten worse and she has been running low grade fevers off and on. I finally took her in to her pediatrician yesterday morning and of course its a viral cold with cough.... nothing we can really do for her. I have been giving her tylenol for her fever and once it kicks in she is a little more like herslef but otherwise she has been whiney and wanting to be held every second. I am not complaining though because as most of you know 2 year olds aren't much for just sitting around and cuddling. That part, I have to admit, I LOVE! Anyway, please say a little prayer for Hopey that she may start feeling better soon.

Pray for Natalie

My friend Natalie is going in for surgery tomorrow morning. Please pray for a successful surgery and that she has a speedy recover. We love you Natalie and hope everything goes well.

Happy Birthday Scott!

Happy 37th Birthday Honey! We love you!
