I'm finally getting back to updating this blog!!! The last time was in the winter,now it's spring! I just wish the weather would act more like spring. I'm trying to grow starts from seeds and I need the sun to help me out! I'm really excited because we are going to do four square foot gardens with Iwan and Lyndel's help,woodworking and general good knowledge that they are giving us. They are just the best people! Matt and I are so looking forward to the tomatoes especially! I haven't had a garden for over five years. I tryed to grow one in Dallas, TX for four years I even had dirt shipped in.....even prayed on the garden, but to no avail. I have high hopes here in Utah!! My son Daniel and his wife Shannon grew a square foot garden last year and they said that Blakely my granddaughter would go out and pick the tomatoes off and just eat them right then. I'm excited!
Well, I completed my last Chemo three weeks ago. I'm so happy to have that part done! It was the last one and the worst! At least it felt that way. I've been basically in bed for the past three weeks, but then I also had surgery on Tues. I had lymph nodes removed and a lumpectomy all in hopes of not having to have a Mastectomy. I also had the portacath removed since I won't be having Chemo any longer! Yeah!! All the x-rays and MRI showed there was NO CANCER evident. The Surgeon went in and found that there was cancer still and that I WILL need the Mastectomy! A disappointment for sure. I go in on Tues April 7 to discuss everything with a Plastic Surgeon and my regular Surgeon. I'll know more after that visit. I'd imagine surgery in a few weeks since I have another granddaughter coming any day! Baby Gracie. I'm so excited to see her! So therefore I want to postpone the surgery as long as possible. The sisters from church have been so wonderful and so helpful especially Ilona Adams,Mitzi Bigilow,Lyndel Black,Donnell Miller and all the calls and concerns and meals. Thanks You so very much. I welcome visitors and calls for sure. Love, Karla
