Dear ones…this post should have gone out yesterday on the Lord’s Day…but as you know, sometimes life happens and things don’t get done as we would like. So I have adjusted the post for today…Monday…. with a few modifications. I will also show you a quick and easy dinner recipe and a dress that I…
My dear sweet friends and family… I apologize for my inconsistency in updating you but I have finally finished the after surgery chemo protocol AND the CAT scan and it was confirmed that All the cancer is gone. Finally all tubes and IV’s are removed and my only appointment is a follow-up in January. Praise…
My dear friends and family….. Here I am again….and I am feeling pretty good. Between my last post and this current one…I have been in 2 hospitals, had a “bleeder” in my stomach (a mammory artery that had to be fixed,’) and a hospital room quarantine because of the virus, an ambulance ride to Tampa,…
Friends, we didn’t get home yesterday (Monday) until 9 p.m. from Moffitt Cancer Center. But we did come with good news. According to my doctors, not every Pancreatic Cancer patient is a candidate for Whipple Surgery. The Captain and I were praising God when we learned that I am a “good candidate” and the scheduled…
My sweet and wonderful friends and family….I apologize for the long period of time since I last updated you. I have so much to say and I can tell you that the “month” of recuperation from the Chemo treatments has been wonderful for the most part. There were ups and downs and there continues…

Cost and re-habing…

Oh my sweet friends and followers…The past 11 days have been a journey in itself. I will update you on the happenings of late. It started on my chemo day….I was so weak, I told the captain i didn’t think I was strong enough to get in the car and go. But, with his help,…
Hello dear sweet friends…. I have to tell you that I feel really good today! In fact, since the doctor’s have modified my chemo into a ‘not as strong dosage’…I am almost feeling normal, or as normal as one could feel with just a little “sickness”. The most important part is, I am beginning to…
woo hoo my dear readers! Well maybe a little toot… The Doctors modified my Chemo treatment and I was/am tolerating it pretty well…. But as with all “drugs”…there are side effects. ;( I would list the side effects, but I can’t talk as fast as those ads on TV for drugs….where they reel off a…
ok…I might as well get this right out there. My hair is gone. It was literally falling out in clumps and I was beginning to look like the poor dog with the mange in the movie “Steel Magnolias” So my sweet Christine hair dresser, grabbed her clippers and came right over to my home and…
