There is not a whole lot going on around the house right now other than the Christmas is coming hustle! I just wanted to take a minute and update, Jason is over is respiratory infection and so is Ronan. We are only four days a way from Christmas so we could possibly all be healthy this year, knock on wood. Jason goes back in early January to see Dr. Tannir and get his second round of shots. I am starting school in January.....I am completely nervous! Its good though, its good starting our lives post cancer treatment.
I know I have said it before, but this year compared to last year is night and day. Even if I dont receive a single gift, I am utterly happy and content. Its extremely difficult to put into words how difficult last year was. I know I documented here, but those post were not everything that was going on and definately not all the feelings and emotions being felt. I suppose the best analogy I have is being trapped underwater, drowning, and that first breath as you break the surface. That one breath that is filled with the need and want of survival and relief that its going to be okay and you can breathe again.
Each one of you has played an important roll in helping Jason and I through this journey. Your support, comments, phone calls meant more to us than you will ever know. It kept us grounded and let us know we were not alone. Jason does not remember most of last year. We had a long conversation awhile ago where he answered all my questions and I answered his about last year. He was moved to tears by how many people love and care about him and his family.
Thank you, each one of you for thinking of us. We hope you all have the happiest Christmas and most blessed New Year. Spend time with your family and say a prayer of thanks! My prayer for this Christmas is simple.
Heavenly Father, When your precious Son came into this world and was born in a stable in Bethlehem in poverty and simplicity, you changed our world. As we gather together let us become like the shepherds and the wise men. Let us seek him in wonder and praise. We thank you for our material lives, praise you for our spiritual lives, and trust in you for our eternal life. Amen.
Merry Christmas!
Kimmy, Jason, and Ronan
Hang in there Jason and Family. I just finished 2 cycles of BEP after removal of "lefty". Doc says all clear now and I pray that it stays that way... FOREVER... I pray that for you too.

Hey brother,
ReplyDeleteI call you brother because I too went through this crap at this time (Nov/Dec) two years ago. Just wanted to say Merry Christmas and hope that all is well with you and your family.
God Bless
