My Mom...

Well~I have not wanted to write this as I am afraid that my kids might see this but it is has come to the time that I need to share everything about the most important person in my life~My Mom..

2 years ago she was diagnosed with Lung Cancer and had surgery to remove part of her lung and thought that they had gotten it all.Well,she had to go back for tests and learned that the cancer had not only came back but it has also spread.So~she started chemo and that made her lose her hair and also made her so weak~tired and sick..But we figured it was working so she continued to get the treatments.But low and behold more tests revealed that the chemo was doing no good so now it was time for radiation. She had to go everyday for 2 weeks and it didn't make her sick or tired! As she would be there for 10 minutes and one zap and she was done! It seemed that she was getting better.

Yesterday we went to see her regular doctor and he informs us that not only was the cancer still present that it also has spread and that he wants her to have more chemo.She has until next week to make up her mind as he wanted to give her time to think it over with the pros and cons of chemo.And I know that she has to make up HER mind as it is not me or the rest of my family that can choose.This is her life and if she wants to not go thru all that again I will stand by her and advise the rest of the family to do the same.Do I want her to fight?!? You can bet your ass that I do but only she can make that choice...

I love you so much Mom and know that you will do what is right in your heart and I will be there holding your hand every step of the way...

    I'm sorry to hear about your mom. It's not an easy decision that she is going to have to make. It's wonderful that you are there to support her in any choice that she decides to make. It's going to be difficult for her and she will need you.

    My thoughts and prayers with your family.

    Yes~this is a very hard thing to go thru and I am trying to cope the best that I can..She did start chemo on Friday so that is one good thing!! We will wait and see how she does with this one as he said it was mild and that she shouldn't get sick so keeping my fingers crossed that it will help her at least so she is not in pain.

    Thank You All So Much For All The Kind Words and Prayers!!

Scentsy Review & Giveaway! 12/20*CLOSED*

I love my house to smell good.I have candles and tea lights in almost every room.But it seems that no matter what I buy the scent just doesn't seem to last.I have spent so much money trying different ones and I swear that I should have bought stock in tea lights the way I buy them!! That is why I was super excited when I was asked to review some Scentsy Products. What is Scentsy~You ask?! Well~let me tell you~ Scentsy sells wickless candles, ceramic warmers and home-fragrance products.  A wickless candle, called a Scentsy Bar or a Scentsy Brick, is a highly fragrant wax bar that is warmed to release fragrance into the air. And they have over 80 scents to choose from! So~I know that you will find one that matches you too!  Because the wax is gently warmed rather than burned, it can hold more fragrance oil than a traditional candle. And, because there is no flame, there is no smoke, soot or lead. Scentsy wickless candles are a safer alternative to tradition...

Midwest Dairy Council~Dairy Makes Sense Giveaway!*CLOSED*

As you may have heard, June was National Dairy Month. June Dairy Month started in 1937, as a promotion to help distribute extra milk when cows started on pasture in the warm summer months.  Today, its rich history continues, with communities, companies and people from all over the country observing June Dairy Month in a variety of ways. In the Midwest, dairy farms and families often open their gates to visitors at breakfasts and tours , while grocery stores and other business feature dairy products during the month. Milk and other dairy products are great sources of vitamins and minerals. For years, we’ve heard milk “does a body good,” but research shows that many people don’t fully understand the whole story of the nutritional value found in dairy. According to the U.S government’s dietary guidelines, we should be eating three servings of milk, cheese or yogurt every day. Dairy products provide four of the seven nutrients Americans are missing the most, in...
