2019 IS ALMOST HERE

Jessica fixed a good Christmas Dinner.  She has worked on the dinner and decorating for weeks.  Robbin, Kyle, Marjie, Jackie, Jessica, Kati, and me were here for dinner.  Tim and Debbie came by later and visited.

Jess took down decorations today. 

I guess I am ready to see what the new year brings. At this moment I still do not know how my insurance will pay in the chemo pills clinical trial. I am half way through and it is working so I hope I get to continue.  My dr. will do something.  He has all kinds of ideas, so I just need to trust him.

Here is to a good New Year.

TME IS FLYING BY

Missed posting in Oct. had chemo Nov 2 and got Pet Scan results.  All lymph tumors are gone the 2 in colon had shrunk. One shrunk by half one by 2/3. Doctor and whole clinic was elated.  Had chemo again Nov 30 .  He plans on 6 more. Next is Dec. 21.  My ins changes in Jan so am concerned if it will pay for the expensive chemo pills I take for 3 weeks each month or he will have to find funding for the final 5.

O feel so blessed and I have people all over the country praying for me. Even at 80 maybe God will give me a few more years.

They are using my case study. I could find no purpose in life without Jim.   Then I got cancer so I decided God may be through with me on this earth.  But now maybe my case will help others. And he may have more plans for me.
    
We went to Robbins for Thanksgiving. Jess, Jackie, me , Robbin, Kyle, Parker and his girlfriend.

Jess took me to the Charity Bingo even at Hamburger Mary's. Was a cancer fund raiser for the disease Barb's daughter had.

Christmas Jessica is cooking dinner here at home.  Do not know how many can come yet.  Some have other family to go see.

Club Christmas dinner is next Tuesday.  I hope I feel like going.  I have gone to the past 2 meetings. Had not felt like going since I got sick.

I know I will have a rough winter. Have to worry about making treatments, and winter depresses me anyhow, but when you are greatful to be alive, you can handle a little cold and depression.





Jessica  did good on tree.
