Tomorrow is the day

Tomorrow is the big day. As mom says, it's when Pacman is coming in to chomp it away. Besides chemo we have to meet with another doctor because dad is having surgery on Friday to get a portalcather in. It's a little tube they will put in his chest to draw blood and put the chemo in whenever need be instead of always finding a vein. We know some nurses just don't always seem to get it right (sorry you nurses out there :) ).... So just a little extra prayer tonight. I know we are ready to get this started and beat this thing. I'll update everyone tomorrow night.

I found a quote today by Jeff Foxworthy that I am sure some of us can relate to, I know our family can :)

"If you ever start feeling like you have the goofiest, craziest, most dysfunctional family in the world, all you have to do is go to a state fair. Because five minutes at the fair, you'll be going ' you know, we're alright. We are dang near royalty. " (Jeff Foxworthy)

Now we all know we have felt that, don't act like no one has done that type of judging of others!

Much love to all,

  2. just thought i'd share this nugget:

    when we are praying before dinner for "Uncle Bill and Uncle Wally", my 3yr old Theo (Theodore Walter actually)interupts "No, not Wally ... waaaaAAaaaah-LEEE !" imitating Wall-E from Disney/Pixar

    it certainly lightens the moment

  3. Michelle,
    I want to thank you for doing such a great job! I look forward to reading it everyday. It makes me cry with every happy and sad comment...we all just need to hang in there and continue to love...live each day as if it is our last! Life it to short to dwell on what "has" happened and we need to focus on what great times are to come!
