Oh Jeannie! I am deeply sorry for the loss of your mom. And at holiday time, too. I never get much of a holiday because I have only 3 family members left and all but one lives far away. But that's OK. I have my house decorated to the hilt. I love it and will spend quiet holidays admiring my decor. Wish I could leave it up all year.
So, I'm happy I"m off the chemo, but wish the side effects would go away quicker. Still very fatigued and can't eat. Am down to 154 from 204. I look good, feel crumby. Use to look crumby and feel really good. LOL. But we can't have everything all at once so happy to be here to celebrate, right? Right. It's all downstream from here. No more paddling just to stay afloat.
Happy and Blessed Holidays to all of you, no matter where you are, or how, or if you celebrate the Season.
