Christmas and More
Dec. 22, 2017 - January 2018
Still reeling from the surgeon's appointment we hopped on the plane to San Antonio, Texas. Our son lives there. Our grandson was turning 12 and wanted us to be there for his church priesthood ordination as a Deacon. Of course! We stayed for Christmas, got to visit with my brother from Ohio who was visiting his daughter in Austin, and visited a dear friend outside of Dallas. We saw a reenactment of the "Cattle Drives" in Fort Worth.
I was trying to ignore the fact that I had a mutant tumor in my chest. (The Pulmonologist said it is cells that have mutated. So we used that when having a "Family talk" with the grandkids that stay with us almost every weekend. We explained mutation with the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". One decided that the tumor on the x-ray looked like a turtle!)
As Bob (my husband) and I had colds, I did very little of the planned cancer reading. I didn't care much because of the cold, but when I thought about cancer, I cared a lot. When we got back home, I felt so rotten one day that I said, "God, I know I could be dying of cancer, but just take me now!!" Obviously, He didn't!!
