New Year

Ready for a New Year already...I am so tired of 2007. When this year began, it was supposed to be a magical year - I was getting married & my best friend announced she was expecting her first baby. So far so good... In February my mom was diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Cancer (www.ibcresearch.org), in November my grandma had a "mini stoke". My grandma is doing good, no lingering problems, her medication was adjusted. My mom just finished radiation on Friday 12/21. In a matter of minutes my life and my family's life was turned upside down.

I dreaded the holidays, and I thankfully survived without any major meltdowns. I am relieved that the holidays are over. I love Christmas, but this year it was just too hard to be happy. I am hoping and praying with all my heart to have a better 2008. All of our family needs a better 2008. My mom has yet another round of chemo to battle the cancer - it's slated to start in Januray. I pray that it won't be too hard on my mom's body. I am starting to really think that Denny and I should move in with my mom to help her more around the house, especially when the chemo starts getting to her body.
