Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

I had to go back and read the post from last year to figure out what we did. Last year is such a blur to most of us in this house! However, today and everyday is a day to be thankful. Thankful that our family had one more year together, thankful that we are all in general good health, thankful that we have come so far from where we were a year ago. Last year Jason was in a wheelchair and barely moving around and we were getting ready to in for the second translpant. This year he kept me company and fetched things while I baked pies. I got to see him and Ronan curl up in the recliner watching the Macy's parade. Its these little moments that move me to tears. While we have not won the lottery or magically found fantastic jobs that allow us to do as we will, we have been so blessed beyond any millionaire or person that has found their dream job. We have had another year together of making memories. Jason goes back for scans on December 7 results on the 8th. This will mark a year post second transplant...If these are clear, chances are the cancer will stay gone! Say alittle prayer for us. Hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!Prayers Welcomed!

Here's an update

So our lives have been crazy busy since the last post. Jason and I went on a roadtrip to Mississippi for the funeral of a friend's Dad, Jason also worked with him. He passed away due to complications of Pancreatic Cancer. However, on a lighter note we turned the roadtrip into a celebration for our Five year anniversary. Its hard to believe its been that long. It was fantastic and the first time we have got to really go anywhere since our honeymoon. Hopefully the next one wont be so long coming. Then on to Halloween. It was the first year since Ronan was born and had been trick or treating that Jason got to participate. We walked a neighborhood and Ronan was dressed as Phineas and Jason was dressed as Ferb. I cannot express how wonderful it was to do something so simple. Jason is doing well enough that I felt comfortable taking a part time seasonal job. I am working at Bass Pro Shop in the fudge cart...I told Ronan that I'm helping Santa. He is taking it hard but he is a trooper as always. Jason is doing great. He has cut down on alot of his pain medication, he is getting more feeling in his feet. That is both good and bad because he actually felt it when he stumped his toe last night. He actually asked me if he broke it....no you just stumped it honey. He is walking, staying awake for longer periods of time, and is generally getting back to a new normal. I like these past weeks...they were busy but fun and completely normal! I could get use to this. Prayer request is for things just keep going with the flow. His next scans are in December. Prayers Welcomed! Kimmy
