A Visit With Santa







Happy Holidays to everyone.It is hard to believe that Christmas will soon be here. All three of the kids had a GREAT time at the Christmas party today. The Christmas party was given by the Four Diamonds foundation and it was at the Herhsey Conventions Center and it was such a nice party.The Four Diamonds Foundation provides financially help (paying medical bills that insurance does not pay) to family's of children fighting life threatenings disease.

Well I have some bad new to share. My husband was laid off from his job on Friday. The company he worked for really depends on company's being able to get loans to have work done on new construction site and with the economy the way it is there is just no money and it is very hard for company's to get loans to have work done. We sort of thought this may happen so he had already started to look for new work but I just not so sure it will be that easy with the way things are going. Well let just say it could not have been worst timing!!!!! We will figure it all out . Like they say when one door closes another one opens RIGHT???? lol

As far as Makhi goes he seems to be doing better. He was a little sick over the weekend but I think it is because it's day 10 after chemo and that is when his counts really hit bottom. We have gotten something for Makhi to help him take off the edge of the rage he is experiencing from the steroid so that has helped. He returns to the Med Center on Dec 22 for his last chemo treatment (well let hope it is his last). We have also come down on steroid a little from .25 to .20 so that is also helping lessen the behavior problems that we are having with him.

Well I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!!!!
