I'm sure you all have heard about the piles of snow we had last week in South Western Ontario.Many places had much more snow then we had.
I told the kids our birthday cake was out on our deck. Gary and I are both Christmas week babies.
Merry Christmas from our home to yours...
It's been almost six weeks since we updated our blog. There's a saying, "no news is good news"."
Well, things have been going quite well. Other then routine appointments every 2 weeks and a snow day, Gary has been going to work almost everyday. He had his second week of chemo treatments the week of Nov. 29th-Dec.3rd. It has been one of the hardest weeks for him. It has left him more tired and with less energy then before. All of this is somewhat to be expected as this last treatment was his first full dose of the chemo medication. At this point Gary is just very thankful that he is able to continue going to work.is just so thankful that he is able to continue working.
On Dec. 14th Gary went for another MRI. The weather had been stormy on and off for the last week and meetings were canceled the night before. To make sure we got to the 5:30 a.m. appointment we got up at 3 a.m. (We were both surprisingly wide awake before 3) Gary blew out the lane way before we left. Thankfully the main roads were quite clear however very slippery. We made it there in good time.
We will not hear the results of the MRI until Dec. 29th when Gary will begin his third week of chemo. We hope and pray that the radiation and chemo have been effective and the results of the scan will be positive.
Gary and I are looking forward to getting away for a few days next week to celebrate our birthdays together.
We want to wish you all a Merry Christmas , thanking God for sending his Son, Jesus Christ into the world to be our Saviour.
