It's been too long

Well, it took me a while to write again. I have gone through numerous rounds of chemo and radiation and I am still here. Anyways, I am totally into scrapbooking. I figure it's the best way for my kids and their kids (much later I hope) to know all about me. I have tried like heck to keep up with all of the photos but, I figured out that it is better to just take it all one day at a time. It sounds so cliche but it works for me so there.
If you want to some amazingly creative paper go to http://thescrappyshack.blogspot.com/
Her stuff is truly amazing. If you want to purchase some of this awesome paper it is only available at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5646095. Well, that's it for today. I will let you all know a little more later. Happy day!

Just another day

Well, it's been 7 months since I have been diagnosed with Brain Cancer. What started out as a grape sized tumor quickly grew to the size of a large man's fist within 6 weeks. According to the Oncologists I wasn't supposed tolive past the beginning of September. Funny thing is I never even allowed that to be an option. I started Chemo the day I found out and have been going ever since (with a few breaks of course filled with Radiation) and have continued to hang on to this life.I iknow that it is not easy for anybody my husband and kids included. You see, I have 4 beautiful children and a husband that need their mother around for a long time to come. This is a lot to think about on a daily basis and it is so hard to see them cry when I am having one of my many bad days. The only thing I can do is move over and have them snuggle up while we talk and cry past the worst parts. Yes, This is my life.
