SILVER BELLS!!!!!!
I know, I know....it took me long enough to get this picture up. The last 10 days have been......well....busy.
Dad finished his LAST treatment on December 6th, and here he is ringing that bell! It was an exciting morning!
His surgery is scheduled for January 17th. His homework assignment from now until January 16th is to EAT, EAT, EAT whatever he wants. He is to get his belly back.
The first few days after finished treatments were tough. He felt quite icky and experienced some abdominal pains, but I believe we are past that now. We spent with day with my parents yesterday. Sam took Pap some PB chocolate chip cookies "to make him feel better." Mom just called about 10 minutes ago to say Dad has eaten them ALL. Guess I know what I'll be doing later in the week...making lots and lots more!
Plans for the Christmas season are plenty. My brother and his family are visiting next weekend. My parents will be with me on Christmas Eve (Dad's birthday) and Christmas Day. My inlaws will be joining us too. We're looking forward to having all of Sam's grandparents together. We will head to Tennessee with my parents on the 27th for a long weekend with my sister and her family. January 17th will be here before we know it.
Prayers are working. Dad is doing incredibly well and we ask that everyone continue to keep him in your prayers. Pray for the heavy and healthy appetite he will need to gain weight. Pray no issues arise with his health to interfere with that surgery date. Just pray.
It's Christmas time...in the city.
Much love to all.....Jen
