Finally Spring!




Hello! I hope everyone is doing great. We have been really busy over these last few months. I ended up in the hospital for a week because one of the chemo drugs started to shut down my lungs. Thank you to everyone who helped us out and to the wonderful hospital staff and doctors. I will continue to have lung problems for awhile, but I am doing much better. The best news is that I am all done with CHEMO!! I cannot believe that I made it to this point. I remember looking back around my 5th treatment and I didn't think I would be able to handle it. It feels so good to be done! I will start Radiation pretty soon, we are meeting with the Radiation therapist next week.
A.J. started crawling last week too! He gets into EVERYTHING, but it is so much fun to watch him get around. He is getting so big! We are already working on getting him to walk, but I think that will take awhile.
JonAaron and I finished up our school semesters. It will be nice to have a break and have some fun this summer, especially after a rough year. Hopefully we will get to take some great vacations, and swim a LOT!
Happy Easter!+
