Way Behind

Ok, So I am way behind on updating the blog. I will work on that this evening so CHECK BACK!!!! Thanks

Update after Dr's Appointment

Todd and I met with this Knoxville DR the Neurologist on Friday. (The Florida DR-Dr. Malaypa told us that we would more than like not see any change until the 4 Month visit) Dr. Wiseman told us that the scan was STABLE and showed no change. We knew that it was supposed to look like that but deep down, I was hoping for something. Dr. Wiseman who has NEVER had a case like Todd's cautioned us not to get our hopes too high about the Proton Therapy eliminating the tumor. On the other hand, Dr. Malaypa told us that eliminating the tumor was our ultimate goal. HUMMMM, you just hope and pray. It is out of our hands so maybe God will give us good results by the next visit. Dr. Wiseman gave Todd a medicine for nausea as Todd has had an upset stomach for 3 weeks. I am very thankful that he did not put him back on steroids-he said he could not see much swelling. Keep praying! I appreciate everyone who is!!!

The Cold bug

So when your immune system is down, it does not respond to a cold very well. That's the new ailment!!! Todd caught a cold that I had last week and it has just kicked him in the butt. He goes to work and then comes home and goes straight to bed. He also said his stomach is upset. When will that guy get a break? He had 2-3 days last week where he felt good and thats it!!!

I started my new job on Monday and really like it! Of course, my store does not open till the first week of June so this month is all about marketing. I know that once my location opens, I will be busy busy busy. Juggling everything is difficult because I have had little help from Todd. I have even been *trying* to mow the yard-it's not pretty!!! Once he gets back to his good old self, I will have him helping out!

We have a busy rest of the week planned. Tyler is in a baseball tournament starting Friday. We are doing the Juvenile Diabetes walk-walking with baseball team bc one of the boys has Diabetes- on Saturday morning, baseball Sat afternoon and then Mother's Day and baseball on Sunday. We are going to try and eat lunch with my mom on Sunday and then swing by and see the Bloomfield's. I guess Mothers Day for me is being with my family because there is not going to be much "ME" time. Wouldn't want it any other way!!! Happy early Mothers Day to everyone. Keep praying for Todd, he had a scan done yesterday and we go to Knox Dr on Friday. Will update after that.

Family Update

Todd is FINALLY feeling a little bit better. I think it was Thursday where I could see the change in personality and attitude. I am so thankful that maybe we are heading down the right track!!!

Last night was my last day at the GAP! I had mixed emotions as I walked out the door. I know this new challenge of cupcakes will be a good one. I am off today but start with The Cupcakery on Monday morning.

Todd's mom has been diagnosed with liver cancer now, in addition to lung and bone so PLEASE add a prayer for her. She is going to visit 2 other centers for second opinions. I talked to her this week and she was really positive so....Can this family take any more grief? As soon as I know more, I will update everyone. Thanks and keep praying.
