My Life

Wow, I cannot believe that it has been over a month since I posted to my blog... Life has truly been eventful for me and my loved ones. As of today, I only have four more chemo treatments left. My last chemo infusion is (Lord willing) on August 24, 2010. The next day, I will meet with my surgical team to discuss my options for reconstruction. I am having a radical bilateral mastectomy, with hopes and prayers of not having to deal with Breast Cancer ever again.

The summer has been great for my two lovebugs Lauryn and Landon. They attended Summer Day Camp for the first time ever, and that was great for the both of them, and of course me. I got some much needed rest. For three weeks, Monday thru Friday they were away from mommy, and I had the opportunity to just mosey around, do some overdue Spring cleaning, and get their closets and clothes ready for the new school year. Both started school this week. Landon on Monday at his new Pre K class, and Lauryn 1st grade on Tuesday. What a week it has been!!

Additionally, our family is working through a situation; Jesse (my Dad) was in a near fatal car accident on Sunday. He is still in critical condition, but we know that God is in control!! Please keep him and my mother in your prayers. She is so very fragile now with this, and of course what I am going through... so right now she needs to maintain her health and strength. Family is not to be taken for granted, this I know. I thank God for Jesse's family who have traveled from near and far to be here, and of course my Aunts who are home with my mom to be by her side during this most critical time - making sure she is eating, resting and has someone to help bear this heavy burden with her.

Well ~ as I look at my life and where I am on this very day, I am still rejoicing that we are all here to see yet another day. God is Good!

Grace and Peace ~ Tish
