A Non-Cancer Note of Joy

Well, the first CT scan with Kadcyla is still a month or more away, so ne news there.

My wife is feeling great, so we are hoping the next CT will be good news.

But, I did want to share with everyone at GRACE some other good news - our joy in announcing our first grandchild.  As the saying goes, Mother and Father and Child are doing fine.

Since my wife's diagnosis we have shared many joyous moments, including our daughter's wedding and now our daughter's first child.

Just serves as one more reminder that you never know the paths life will take you, so you have to make sure to enjoy every moment and every blessing you can.

Congratulations Scohn!  How wonderful!  I remember the picture of you and your wife walking your daughter down the aisle. 

Life has all kinds of great surprises.  I'm so glad she is feeling good.  What a gift.

 

Cheesecake all around :)

You are absolutely correct; it's amazing how things we may have taken for granted in the past jump out and remind us of the wonders of life.

I don't think a pic would be out of line, scohn?
