Quiet House

It's so quiet this evening--Mom and Dad left and it seems so empty in our house! It was so great to be able to visit so much. They are such special people and I feel so blessed. I think their little dog, Fannie, is relieved to be away from my annoying little Boris though. Boris was so excited to have a potential playmate that he just would not leave poor little Fannie alone.

Mom brought a whole box of photos and she spent hours placing them on a calendar that my sweet sister in law, Ellen, made. Mom left several months of the calendar for me to do myself and I'm excited to spend some time finishing the project. I've never done scrap-booking and now I know what to do.

Greg put a couple of pictures on our blog that featured some special people who were donating blood for me at the Blood Bank last week. Isn't that cool? Hopefully I won't need it, but it was so kind of them to think of me. Ten people particiated in the blood giving. Very humbling.

Tomorrow I'll be spending hours at the Cancer Center for chemo and radiation and an update on the continueing heparin situation. Most of the time I really don't mind being at the Cancer Center. It really helps me put things in perspective and I love all the nurses and staff.

Thank you so much for your friendship and prayers. Greg and I feel so blessed to have so many wonderful relatives and friends who care about us enough to pray. Love, Julie
