Back from the Clinic

It's been a wonderful couple of weeks. Our new little grandson, Andrew, was born to Aaron and Andrea. He was born at home and is healthy and well. The next day, Larry and I flew to Houston, TX to see Dr. Burzynski. There is no sign of cancer at all. He has reduced the medicine he has me on to 3 times a day instead of 4. I need to have another ct/pet scan in 6 months and will need to go back to the clinic. He wants to make sure there are no stem cells left in my body. Everything looks really good. Still in remission!
Came home from the clinic and watched Aaron and Andrea's other 4 kids for several days and then flew to Utah to be with Jonathan and Carrie and there kids. We had a great time together! On the flight home, I met a darling young lady who donated $500 towards my medicine! She is soooo sweet.
Now I'm home and Thomas is engaged! He is marrying Tannis, who is a darling girl and we love her. That happened last night, on Valentine's. This weekend, we will be meeting her parents and going out to dinner.
Our daughter, Christina and her husband found out they are expecting a girl! We are so excited. They spent the morning at the hospital though as she has been spotting. She over excercised and needs to stay down for awhile. They say the baby is fine.

Gardening

We have a beautiful garden and I've reaping this morning. I just got 3 heads of cauliflower, 2 cabbages, radishes, tomatoes, cilantro, parsley, lots of lettuce and more. It's fun! But I miss my little grand daughter, Lily, because she is my helper when it comes to reaping. Now she lives up in Utah and I have to reap all by myself.

This weekend we leave to Houston to visit Dr. Burzysnki. I'm anxious to find out if I can start diminishing my anti neoplastins and then got off of them entirely. I'll do whatever the doctor says to do. I love going to the Burzysnki clinic. They are so positive and upbeat there, and have a wonderful spirit about them. I've packed my bags already and am ready to go.

I'm hopeful that our grandson will be born before we leave, as he was due last week. I love life and am soooo grateful for may more years ahead of me. I've been exercising and bike riding and just enjoying the beautiful weather. I've also started writing our family history. I'm eternally grateful to a loving Father in Heaven who was so merciful to me and who snatched me from an early death of cancer. I'm also indebted to Dr. Burzysnki and his staff as well as my wonderful family and friends. So many have prayed for me and paid for my pills. I want to bless other peoples lives and serve in whatever ways I can.
