Good news!

Last week, I had a CAT scan and a Bone Scan. The CAT scan shown that the spots on my liver were Significantly Reduced!! Praise to GOD! So, we are doing something right in all this!

The Dr. gave me the rest of the month off from Chemo and I go back after the first of the year to re-evaluate the chemo plan and see how many more. I'm so happy to share this news with ya'll...the prayers are working!!! Thank YOU!!!

I'm still in a bit of a funk but it's starting to be better. I have a bit of a cold too and that has knocked me down, but I have the rest of the month to get rested and eating good!

Thank you all for your comments and well wishes and prayers, we will continue to fight this battle and I know now their is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Merry Chirstmas!

Happy Friday

Few and far between right now with posts, and I'm so sorry it is like that. But this Chemo brain keeps me from all those ideas that used to be swirling in my head, some days they do pop out but for the most part they are not anywhere to be found.

So, just to keep you on what is going on...I have scans next week and treatment again. I am not taking the treatment that was scheduled for 2 days before Christmas..so that should give the rest of the month to recover and recoup.

Making lists for Christmas shopping, not decorated the house, nor made any Christmas goodies..but this year will just have to be different.

But it is going to get better and I'm going to be healed from this mess and get back on with my life!

Have a great weekend!

Little bit in the studio

Got in the studio a bit the last couple of days, and soldered up some charms:

Christmas ornies for my Etsy shop.......


This is a swap:

With Marsha, from Tumble Fish Studio...She is a wonderful artist and did this collage, she made it tiny, tiny..she made one for me too..

Then, I added a collage to the backside..This is a copy of one of my personal photos, I love to use. It is one of the first photos in my collection that started a few years ago..thanks to Ebay..

I made a couple more of this gal too:

She's another personal photo from my collection. I love the look on her face...

I find this saying very fitting with this picture. We all need a kick in the pants from time to time, don't we?

Have a great weekend!

My main Man

I wanted to share with you my main care-giver at this time in my life....he's been around a long time, 27 years plus to be exact...We've known each other since I was 12 and he was 14.

He wears many hats: He's the Big Daddy of fun...
Spoiler, hug giver, bites on the neck and giggle maker...

He's Mr. Fix-it or make it or repair it...

Mr. Clean it, shine it, make it nice..

And right now he's my care giver, hand holder, Chemo sitter, driver, shopper, and researcher...and most of all he's my rock.

Thank you hubby.

I love you, I couldn't make this journey with out you.

A delivery was made

By the Get Well Fairy! And be danged if I didn't get her picture...

She brought laughs, and goodies and cookies....AND she brought This:

This beautiful out pouring of hopes, prayers, and love from my blog friends and new blog friends. This wonderful window of tags, there are over 50 tags on this. Jan fixed up the window frame to hold them all and it covers it completely!

Thank you all who sent in, Thank you Jan for making this and doing all this for me! Thank You! The blog and altered art community is a wonderful place full of big hearts and outreaching hands! I'm glad to be a part of it!

Been feeling ok, proud to say, I didn't have a 'crash' day after the latest treatment, so maybe the eating better has helped. Feeling half normal does have it's up sides..lol..

Have a great Wednesday!
