my bad...
I have so bad in keeping this one up sorry! But my myspace one is totally up to date. (lol)
My life these past 2 months now has been a total roller coaster. Everything in my entire world has been turned upside down. We found out that my husband has diffused large cell lymphoma (lymphoma is one of the blood cancers, he has the non-Hodgkin's type) Nothing can prepare you for a blow like that, a healthy active 36 year old it totally seemed unreal. When we read up on it we learned that this type of cancer usually affects people in their 70's. So after a barrage of tests at Roswell Park and a couple weeks of worry we finally got the results back.
Luckily the bone marrow biopsy came back negative, and the scans that he had showed only the one tumor. He started chemo last week and aside from the tiredness and occasional heartburn he seems to be doing fine with it so far (knock on wood). I just hope that he can beat this, I keep telling myself he will, he will.
Lillian just turned 3 last month, where does time go? and Madeline will be 6 on the 29th in a few days. Now that seems scary to me 6 years old it just seems like I had her the other day. I cannot believe how big she has got from this 5 lb 13 oz peanut to a 6 year old. Seems like overnight, I was looking at her the other day and thinking boy did she get tall. For their birthdays my mom and sister chipped in and got them a 15 foot enclosed trampoline with a light. So that has been their new fave toy for the past couple weeks, they love it in there. I have to admit that it is kind of fun too, i myself have enjoyed a few bounces here and there.
I am already sick of summer pretty sad huh since I usually love it but this one sucks I really am having no time to enjoy it with swim lessons, the girls library club, doctor's appointments, lab appointments, chemo treatments. My days are so long now and come 10pm I am done, ready for bed. Ed is on sick leave for now and having him home all day is something else. Don't get me wrong I totally love him with all my heart but at times it is like having another kid here. With the girls I could get away with waffles or eggs and toast for dinner simple stuff like that now I can't.
