SECOND TIMES A CHARM






Hello to all  our Love Loop Friends !  A big thanks to my dear friend Shelley for giving you all our first update as we just had to much going on to find the strength to do that. Our family plans to be updating our progress weekly so that all our supporters can follow our journey. We so appreciated a little time when we arrived home as there is always lots of healing to do. I was so lucky to have my Aunt Eileen from Saskatoon come stay with me for a week and help me get my MO JOO back as she calls it. Surgery is now two weeks behind us and chemo is less than a week away. I am feeling stronger everyday and have returned to the gym  walking for about 30 minutes as I prepare both mentally and physically for my chemo. The plan is to have 3 rounds 21 days apart then go to Winnipeg to see how i'm responding. I don't think its any easier knowing what to expect but im embracing the treatments as its what we need to do. Lots of changes again ....not sure what kind of hair doo I will support this time...I really might just appear as the blonde bomb shell Kelly has dreamed of...stay tuned!! hahahahah 

Once again, we have been blessed with many phone calls,texts,flowers, meals and visits and this means a great deal to our family. A special thanks for those that keep us in their prayers. 

Next week brings much excitement...Kyle will be coming home from his year away in Kelowna. He has completed his 3rd year of business and plans to work and party for the summer to return in the fall for his 4th and final year. Our family is especially proud of him for staying out their and persevering. Face time, texting and his great friend and my adopted son Scott Hellyer have helped us all stay connected.

Manda has just had her birthday and is 27! Crazy hey. Kelly and I agreed be cant be 40 anymore so we will keep u posted what our new age will be.  hahahaha   Our beautiful grandsons keep our family smiling and laughing and dancing. They love a song called HAPPY and so often the whole bunch of us are moving and shaking to this!!  You might see all this activity as you drive by the Hamm House.

  Thanks again to you all. Together we will stay strong and positive and beat this Cancer once and for all.                                         Always, Donna  xxoo
