Ken and I spent Thanksgiving with Ken's family. It was also nice seeing and spending time with Ken's brother Rick and his family, Christine, Tracy and Ethan. Since having my last chemo treatment on Tuesday I was a little tired today. So I don't recall if I actually thanked Eleanor for her wonderful meal and for all her help.
I'm thankful for Eleanor and Ron for all your help during the last few months taking me to chemo, watching Cody so I could rest, cooking meals for us, and helping me with chores around the house. It really meant a lot to me and I really appreciate you both.
I'm thankful for my mom Norma and sister Wendy who also took me to my chemo treatments. Even if I was sleeping during treatment, it was so nice to know that you both were there. Thanks to mom for also helping around the house when you came to visit.
I'm thankful for my husband Ken who has also taken me to a few chemo treatments. Having you there with me made me feel safe and I'm so glad that you are the one to share this journey with me.
I'm thankful for my friends and extended family who have supported me through e-mails, letters, phone calls, and cards. I'm so lucky to have each and every one of you who has touched my life. I know I've said this over and over but the support you guys gave me really DID get me through all my chemo treatments. Cancer in general is such shocking news and the way you all rallied around me meant more than you can ever believe.
I'm thankful for my wonderful little boy Cody. He is my ROCK. My biggest supporter. He is so young and witnessed his mom transform from a vibrant young woman to an old looking bald woman. He has never once called me ugly or ran from me. He hugs me, kisses me, and constantly compliments me on a daily basis. I'm amazed and often wonder why. Wonder what does he see when he looks at me because when I look in the mirror I don't see myself. I see ugliness. But his compliments keep me going and his support for me is overwhelming and I love him so much for that.
He truly is the best little boy a mom could ever ask for.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE !!!
