Hello to you all. Well where to start? The holiday with our kids was perfect. We were so lucky to make a 4 day weekend and share some much needed family fun. Our time was fast so we needed a plan.... the girls had plans to shop and we even found Winners there!! The boys wish list included beers and shopping to buy ball jerseys and that's about it. Everyone was buying Blue Jays everything. You could feel the excitement. Then we did a day to Niagara and then to Niagara on the Lake and ended the day at a winery. It was all GOOD!
Since arriving home I have not felt well...seems I have pneumonia. Its kept me very quiet(no shopping) and hardly talking....never thought that would happen.hhahahaha
Well the tele health was a bit of a tough go this time. Seems the chemo that I have been taking for the past 9 months is no longer doing its job. They know this because CT scan and numbers(CA125) show. After a discussion of what we might like to do next, I decided I want to try another chemo drug. My job at the moment is to get well and be strong and ready to go next week....so me and the dog will be on the couch again. I see my Dr on Tuesday with the goal to start the new chemo on Thursday.
I am certain the new drug will be just what we need to beat up this darn cancer and keep me feeling well and enjoying each and everyday. Thanks for all your love and support and prayers. Keeping you in the loop. Always, Donna

Feeling Fine!!
Hello everyone! We have been enjoying the beautiful fall weather. Kelly been busy in our yard getting trees trimmed and plant pots put away etc. Hard to believe summer is over and we look ahead to winter.
Our family is going to have a little get away and we are so excited about it. We will go late October for 4 days and enjoy some family time.
We saw the DR yesterday and chemo is go for Monday. I continue to tolerate the treatments well so im very grateful for that. We discussed how I continue to crash after I go off the steroids and this is quiet normal. We will attempt to taper off slower and longer and try to avoid this again.
Mandy and the monkies are good and busy as ever. They are back to gymnastics, swimming and playing outside at the park whenever the weather is good. Kyle still busy working with GVC and looking for a career in his field.
Not much else to share. I will keep on keeping on ....one day at a time and enjoying each and every moment. Keeping you in the loop Always, Donna
