What a great weekend. It all started on Friday with a Bacholorette party for Erica Merritt (my niece who is getting married in a couple of weeks. ) Sherry (my sister) called on her way to Salt Lake. She asked if Jenni and I could come and meet them at a restaurant in Sandy. This was about 4:00 and we were to meet them at 6:30. Sherry knew I couldn't go to Star Valley for her last shower. I was thrilled that I could be included. This was given by Andrew's family who I knew none of them.
Jenni and I drove to Sandy (okay Jenni drove I am still on driving restrictions because of surgery). Andrew has a very nice family. Erica has a lot of friends in Utah. It was fun to see her with her pink boa and fuzzy headband on her head. We just laughed and had a fun time. We then went to Andrew parents house for the rest of the party. Whoa..... If you need ideas for games.... talk to the Erica hee hee. I think she was even shocked. It was fun to laugh. I mean really laugh for a while.
I then told my sister she was coming to stay with me. She said she invited herself -but I don't think so. I was so glad to have her for the weekend. We talked and laughed and then we cried. We were having a great time.... Then Terry came to the top of the stairs and said "Gloria you need to rest!!! It's 1:00" I had no idea it was so late. So we all went to bed.
The next morning, we just hung out. I slept in and stayed in my PJ's most of the day. Sherry painted our back door frame outside, did laundry all day and made strawberry jam (YUMM)
We had such a great time. It took my mind off all the pain I have and stress that comes with it. Even though we had some "cancer" talks. It was good that she was with me for a couple of days.
On Father's day we invited Jenni and Jared and my father-in-law Haskell. We ate yummy salad, fruit and even had a BBQ steak.
Sherry then left and went back to SV. I was fun to have her. I am so glad for my sweet sister Sherry. Love you sis
Jenni took over for Sherry on Monday. I jumped right back in to treatments. The radiation feels like a sunburn (pretty bad one). Jenni is a sweetheart and takes me to my appointments and for drives. I am glad she is so close.
Treatment Update
The Doctors say I am doing well. They are pleased with the radiation thus far. Everything is lining up the way it should. The treatment looks positive.
