Mom and I spent Monday night with the Peacock family. It was a fun evening, seeing Andi’s parents again after probably a decade. Michael made a delicious meal of baby back ribs and homemade mac & cheese; Andi’s mom brought the green bean casserole The kids were adorable and having a great time with the [...]
Today has been good. I got a lot of information, and I’m okay with it. Mom and I are driving a rental car and Progressive has my car, which should be fixed within the next 3-5 days at no cost to us. Originally, it seemed that this was going to be an issue because Progressive [...]
Today started out pretty normal. We had to wake up early – around 5:30AM in order to be at Moffitt by 7AM. I checked in at the BMT office, got my ID bracelet, and talked to our neighbors while we waited. I had my blood drawn - the usual 5 tubes on Monday. Then, I [...]
Because of my profession and being mom, I think I sometimes hide my “quirky” side. Maybe some would call me odd or weird or eccentric or eclectic or just annoying. Co-workers who have visited my classroom know I love to decorate with apples and smiley faces. Perhaps annoying because it’s bright and happy, but I [...]
I thought I would share some good news about my improvements but at the same time, I feel like I should share the plight of others. The sad news is really about the people I’ve met and it’s been a true learning experience. Starting with my improvements, my hair is starting to grow back. I [...]
My routine is off, but it’s not necessarily a bad thing. First of all, I woke up Friday sick. Headache, stomachache – overall not feeling good. Mom had me take a nausea pill, but I still threw up. It was pretty much nothing because I hadn’t eaten yet. So I didn’t eat. I went to [...]
For a while now I’ve wanted to post pictures of my headgear, but I didn’t have a camera. I didn’t ask for one but Joel brought me our old one when he visited, helped me take pictures, and showed me how to upload them. I can now say that I’m not smooth-bald anymore. In the [...]
Before leaving home, I asked Joel and Jake to make me a bear at Build-A-Bear at the mall. I wanted something to take with me, and I wanted the bear to have their voices. I ended up choosing a soft, white polar bear and Jake recorded a message for me to put inside. Joel tried [...]
I suppose this would be another reflection post. Two weeks ago I had a bad day with a terrible headache behind my left eye that mom and I think was caused by sinus pressure. It’s been a while since I’ve really felt bad so it bought down my spirits temporarily. While in bed the next [...]
We started the day at 7AM, early start. In fact, we were so early arriving at Moffitt that they hadn’t even unlocked the BMT office! We ended up waiting outside with another pair who actually turned out to be our next door neighbors at the apartments. Mom said she had seen them before, and we [...]
