September 2010

I can't believe that I have let my blog go for so long. I've decided that I am going to start blogging again. I'll start with an update of the last 2 years or so.

Update:

I'm now 33 years old and still cancer free. My last check up was about 6 months ago. We are still living in Manteca. Taylor is now in the 8th grade and she is still involved in band. She is getting really excited about becoming a freshman next year. Hailey is in the 4th grade and she joined choir this year. Josh is now working at Red Robin as a bartender / server, and I am now working full time at JCPenney. I am the jcp.com/catalog supervisor.

Since I won my fight with cancer I have been fighting my battle with obesity. When I was going through my chemotherapy the doctor had me on steroids, so needless to say I put on a lot of weight. But the good news is I have taken off 60 pounds and I am working on the last 60 pounds. I was doing really well for a while and then after my promotion at work, I started working full time hours and not going to the gym or eating like I should. I think the fact that I just had another birthday has made me realize life is moving forward and its not waiting for me to loose weight. So I better loose weight so I can move forward with my life. I want to be there for my children and their children. (Which better be many many years from now, lol) Life is too short to just sit back and watch it fly by.

I'm going to blog more. I don't promise that it will be everyday, but I will make more of an effort to keep up on it. Not every two years lol.

Jane I'm so sorry to hear you're facing this ordeal again. There are no words that can express how I felt when Paul told me about your situation. Just want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Love.

Ali, Ann, And the boys

Ali, it was so nice to hear from you. Please tell everyone that I appreciate the thoughts and prayers. I'm gonna fight like crazy so I can get better and come back down and see all you guys!

This fight is going to be a bit tougher than the last one but I know I can do it. The hardest part is the amount of time I will have to be in the hospital. Last time I was able to be with my family. This time the family has to travel over an hour each way to come see me. But they are being very strong, I am so proud of them.

We are waiting to find out if my brother is a bone marrow match so we can hopefully get moving onto the transplant stage. If he's not a match they will go to the national donor list. The doctors are really pushing for an early transplant versus waiting.

Well I'm gonna keep up on my blog so please feel free to stop by anytime. It was so great hearing from you. I miss you guys and I hope you are all doing well. Please tell everyone I said hi and I miss them too!!!

Love,

Jane
