HELLO TO ALL MY BUDDIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DO NOT BE TOO SHOCKED HERE THAT I AM FINALLY getting a chance to Journal for the first time, since May12th,THAT is the last i wrote a journal. I have had a hard time focusing ON alot of things since March when my mother was diagn. with (non hodgkins)Lymphoma Cancer!
MY TIME has revolved around her! SHE is now in a Hospital in Philadelphia for a 5 week stay at the Thomas Jefferson University-Kimmel Cancer Center! for a Bone Marrow Transplant! She went in on sept.15th.She is doing okay.other than right now,sick as a dog all week off and on from the radiation , 2x a day for 20min. t-w-th-fri-,and as of tonight she started getting my sisters(who is her donor)........white blood cells into my moms body, and soon will get stem cells from my sis too-that will all happen on sept.25th.I was down there with my mom 15 16 17 18-home, will return next week,in the mean time my dad is there with her,my sis who is the donor and my neice. We had to rent an apt. down there for 30days/cost being $2,300-30days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so, when we go, we have a place to eat and shower and sleep.
Its been a crazy roller coaster ride,and i am ready to stop this ride,never did like rollercoasters,now i know why.
I am keeping my faith in GOD above that this will all work out,and its in his hands.
I thank you for the buddies whom have stayed in touch with me!! my diet ,obviously has not been my top priority, i have been, and i am am pretty cautious 90% of time of what goes in my mouth,but, slack on the part i need-EXERCISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as i said, 4 more weeks to go , with this drive to and from our home to PHILLY-2&1/2hrs. one way., after thats all done, i need to start doing for me, right now i will do what i have to for my MOM(my MOM and POPS) and thats they way it goes.
ALL of you take care,and stay in touch. I am going to really try hard for the weightloss challenge for/by christmas, nothing i would love more,than to take off 20lbs til then,and i know it can happen so,what am i waiting for,right?
love to all
Brenda/mygranners
take care and good luck on
all your success
