More Treatments Behind Us and Many Thanks to You All!

February 9, 2007
Friday

Robert has completed 2 treatments of chemo and 3 treatments of radiation. He is doing great. He has had no side effects from the treatments yet. Robert is now doing radiation Monday thru Friday and chemo once a week. We are hoping and praying Robert will just breeze thru the treatments and will be back to working in a couple of months. Michael has come up to entertain us this weekend. We are very grateful for the company. Thanks Mikey.

When I hear the following song I think of each person that has so lovingly and generously put their needs aside to be with Robert and I in this time of great need and despair. We want everyone to know that we are so grateful you are a part of our lives. We cannot say Thank You enough for your generous gifts and your lovely encouraging words. The transition has been easy due to our success in surrounding ourselves with only the best of people. Your acts of Humanitarianism will be held closely in our hearts and minds. Our appreciation and love for You All will never falter. Thank you so very much, may we one day have the luck and opportunity to repay that which Everyone has so graciously given.


Rascal Flatts - My Wish Lyrics
I hope the days come easy and the moments pass slow,
and each road leads you where you want to go,
and if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walkin' till you find the window,
if it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,
But more than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
all the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
and you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
and always give more than you take.
But More than anything, Yeah, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish. Yeah.
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

The words to that song are beautiful but I've never heard it. I may need you two to sing it for me.

Hey Roberto & Judy,Judy!!
It has been days since I have had the opportunity to look at the site. Ya know, it is strange, but with this site I feel connected somehow...and like the last week, since I haven't had a chance to glance at it daily....I couldn't wait to see it and see how ya'll are doing. And dog-gone-it, I am going to request that the person in charge of putting all these postings and comments on here... to do ME a huge favor. Is there any way you can put a little icon of like a tissue or something by the entries that you know will make me cry?????? I can't look at this darn thing that I don't get all choked up or teary eyed from what you or your army of wellwishers and caregivers have to say.
Well, it is nice to be home and see that you both are doing good. Sure wish you would come stay with me this weekend if you feel up to it. Gotta go get some kleenex before I ruin Mick's lap top!!
