I think we have finally gotten the good old fashion Michigan crud in our house. Katie had 6 girls over with a birthday/slumber party which went well, but then the "stuff" hit our house this weekend (two kids with fevers and one with a sore throat), it is going around! However the sun is shinning and warmer weather has hit Michigan. I am looking forward to the change and hoping that the change in weather is also the end of the sickness that has seemed to hit many families.
Tom is still dealing with the respiratory issues. It seems every time the kids get something he catches a part of it. He is handling it well, but he is the "weakest link" and the poor man does not seem to get a break. I was able to move Tom's U of M appointment to March. Tom was thinking I should just cancel it, but I reminded him that the Oncologist would like him to continue the visits there as well. We did not get back the calcitonin level from his last blood work yet, so I am anxious to see what the result will be. Tom will be going back to therapy a couple of times a week in order to help him with the swelling of his neck. I am hopeful that this will also help the long term breathing issues.
It is so hard to truly express how thankful we are that so many people continue to ask about & pray for our family. I believe it is what keeps us going. My Aunt has a signature that she attaches to each e-mail and I would love to share it with you as it fits with everyone and where we are in life:
Happy Moments...praise God
Difficult Moments...seek God
Quiet Moments...worship God
Painful Moments...trust God
Every Moment...thank God
