Up, up and away!

I have this crazy urge to go buy some balloons and release them into the air. To watch them float away into the heavens. Each one a thank you for all the wonderful things that have happened in my life.

Life just keeps getting better and better for us. Scott just got a huge raise and I won red sox tickets. Wishing I had cash cause I'd play the lottery tonight lol. Yes I'm feeling lucky.

The neuro-opthamologist figured out what was wrong with my eye. I have scar tissue from an ulcer that healed. He said it was most likely healed shortly after sugery and thats why I have the blurry vision. I have to go see a specialist and figure out what happens next. I'm optimistic about it though.

We had a good visit with Aunt Fran and cousine Kiette today. Grace was her usual charming self and put on a good show for them. She is such a sweet baby and I'm so lucky thats she's mine.

Be well....

Wow

Its been a long time since I've posted, but life has been crazy busy since the end of chemo!

Scott got a job!!! He gets to work at home which is awesome because he doesnt miss anything when it comes to Grace growing up!

And speak of the devil! Grace is getting so big, so fast and I just can't stand it! She's crawling like crazy, and she pulls herself up on everything, and the insists on walking! She'll be walking before I know it! She's going to be 9 months tomorrow and it kills me! I just hope I can enjoy the rest of her life without anymore chemo! We've started to break bad habits, which means mommy doesnt get as much cuddle time with Grace and that my heart breaks when she cries. But its only for a couple minutes and she is sleeping so much better at night.

I'm almost feeling normal again. And I've almost got the house back to my OCD standards but it is hard with Scott working such long hours right now. Hopefully things will calm down for him at work and I can have some more time, or Grace will settle down on the seperation thing and I'll be able to get more done.

My first 3 month checkup is scheduled for June and I'm a bit nervous about it... But I have faith that everything will be okay.

Be well all...

its finally here....

Whats finally here you ask? Spring. And spring brings the promise of new life, new beginings, hope and lots of warm sunny days. We also have hit the end of chemo now too. They ancelled my last two treatments and did scans this week. Everything came back normal and fine.

I did it. I kicked Melvins butt like I said I would. Who is Melvin, you ask. Well thats what I named the cancerous tumor that was growing inside me. Dont ask me where the name Melvin came from cause I have no idea lol.

Spring has sprung! And my new lease on life has just begun! They said I should start to feel better in a few weeks and that in about a month I should notice some hair growth. I'm excited and scared all at once to see what it will look like when it comes in.

Grace hit two big milestones this week! She crawled (and hasnt stopped since lol) and she pulled herself up to her feet! She's getting so big so fast! We colored eggs at her nanas house the other night. So much fun! And tomorrow will be her first easter, and boy do we have so much to celebrate now.

Is it normal to cry with such good news? I've got these great big tears threatening to spill out and roll down my face right now. I guess they are tears of joy and relief.

Well its gorgeous out, and she should be waking from her nap soon and I intend to get us out there for a bit of a walk today and enjoy the warmth.

Be well...
