12/27-We're going to AZ!!

Dear Family and Friends,

Thanks for all the great prayers!! My counts were good and the Dr. released me to go to AZ. We just found out this AM. The kids would have been so disappointed if we were unable to go. For them, this is better than Disneyland!! We are all excited to be going. I hope they let me in though. Being sick I was unable to do my traditional baking. So we will be arriving Sans Cookies and Carmel Corn. Yikes!!

I have been fighting a cold since 12-23, Christmas Eve Eve. I woke up feeling really horrible, headache and cough. The headache went away the next day but the cough was so bad that it made me throw up. I think my gag reflex is just more sensitive right now. But this has now turned into laryngitis. Basically I feel better but sound awful. I still have this cough but it is much less than it was. I went to my primary Dr. today to make sure I was ok to travel. He said that was fine but to rest and drink fluids like any good Dr. would tell you to do. I thought this cold was worse for me because of all that I am going through. He said that I was going through it in a normal way. It just so happens to be a 7-10 day kind of cold.

Having this cold has actually made me sick looking, sounding and acting. Funny how colds do that. But at breakfast the other day Trinity (our 4 1/2 year old) looked up at me real sad like and said "Mommy, I don't want you to die. I don't want to have to get a new Mommy." It's amazing what must go through these precious little ones minds. As serious as all this Chemo stuff is, I haven't been all that sick. I have been mostly normal. So being sick looking for real frightened my daughter. We explained that I was just fighting off a normal cold. She seemed good with that.

We all had a wonderful Christmas together as a family. I hope all of you did the same. It is such a special time of year to build new memories. We did lots of that this season. Thank you again and again for all the support through prayers and gifts and kind words and encouragement and everything. God is so good and it is so good to be able to say it and to really mean it!!

Lots of love and Happy New Year!!! Peggy

Looking forward to seeing you guy's when you get back.
