My Mom starts 6 weeks of radiation treatments again today. The last time was 5 years ago. They say theres nothing to worry about and that it's pre-cancerous. This Saturday marks the first anniversary for loosing my Dad. So this has been a L O N G week!

My Mom's brother sent us this, I hope you see the humor in it too ClappingClapping

Stephen

First sorry to hear about your mom, she will come through with flying colors I'm sure.

Now to the dictionary, the one I like best is "Benign" -> what you be, after you be eight.

That gave me the biggest chuckle.

Thanks

Lee

Yes sorry to hear about your mom I am sure she will be just fine. I have you both in my prayers. 

 The list gave me a chuckle . Good stuff.



Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. The river was
cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time.
On some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. Under the rocks are the words,
and some of the words are theirs.

Thanks for the support. The Dr has assured us that, they are just being pro-active, and my Mom has nothing to worry about. Now tomorrow, we will both be junk Sad    I can't believe it will be a year already. Roll Eyes

 

Dave, my uncle was a lifer in the USAF. He sends me emails every day. If I read them all I wouldn't get anything done Crazy
