Hello my friends, I finally get a chance to say Happy Holidays, Thanks Giving, Christmas, Hannakua.I am happy to say that my MM has gone into the no growth mode on my lytic, lesions, that were eating holes my bones. I still take my list of supplements but have added a new one that was cooked up just for me. I am so excited, as if this had not worked, I would have had to go on Chemo/Revlamid, and my body did not want that.
The doctor did not say much but was a little surprised things had calmed down. I am feeling so much better and my head is clearer.
I am reading about my friends who have so much suffering and wish I could pass it onto these dear friends who suffer so much. I am grateful to God as I prayed for my increased healing, it was touch and go for a while here and not a wonderful space to be in.
I am feeling happier and seem to be more healthier.
I found the little Christmas items above are so cute, am pleased to say I was strong enough to
go to the Christmas Tree festivals around the valley. I have given up on buying lots of gifts and
just do some token thank yous.
When one is near death it becomes important to look at the things that are meaningful. Christmas should be about Christ/Jesus (for those who believe in Christmas) and not about rushing out at 4am to get the latest toy of thing. When I was in my singing group we used to sing a song that said "put Christ in you Christmas this year".
We are gearing up for a long trip, and only the fact that I am on this new regime am I well enough to do this. We are off down under in January for a wedding, and it will be so nice and warm at that time. It is getting harder and harder to get travel discounts and we were fortunate to have it work out. The airlines won' let you upgrade with your points unless you book months ahead and even then you are fortunate if they let you use them, I have been doing this for 25 years and it is amazing how things have gone down hill in this regard. But on the other hand I am happy I can travel.
We had a lovely Thanksgiving and especially when I Only had to make my super fresh cranberry recipe, walk half a block and get fed.
This is a really difficult time for those with illness but especially cancer ass they want to be with their loved ones or travel and cannot. Another side issue is money, that flows out the door to the doctors and hospitals. Even with insurance we are not always covered. My friends son has had a brain tumor for 7 years and now with a relapse he is racking up big bills and I think it has made them almost broke.
It is wonderful to read a story of animals or children who have something special happen to them
Here is a nutty cat video to make you laugh: The music does not add to it.
Have a stress free week and do not overspend!
