I never made the debate team ....

So today was another milestone or valley depending on the way you view things. Dad had a follow up appointment with the Dr. that did his broncoscopy at City Hospital. This Dr. will be writing a letter to ask the Oncologist to give Dad some radiation without doing another biopsy, this will be a second "specialist" to send a letter to the Oncologist requesting that radiation be done without requirement of tissue. Apparently, the Oncologist we are dealing with is a difficult person to deal with....the Dr's were hoping that once we had a face to face confrontation with the Oncologist we would be able to debate our way into his good graces and have him give Dad the radiation backed by the two letters from each specialist. Here is the problem, I wear my heart on my sleeve and my brain gets soggy in the process. I really need to be on my toes with questions, queries and some darn good responses when dealing with this situation......here's hoping God gives me the strength as well as the wisdom to bring this to an outcome that is best for my Dad.

I went out this evening and picked up most of my bedding plants, will tuck them into their beds on Monday....as I listen to the weather report for the weekend, me thinks waiting until Monday is a really good idea. Those poor people near Porcupine Plain/Hudson Bay area.....a winter storm warning.....really? wow.

I was out and about yesterday at noon and found a backpack for little Molly. The backpack is pink with Curious George on it.....too cute. Now, she has her own bag to use when she is coming over for a sleepover, or just a play date and needs to bring extra clothing. The backpack came with a little "lunch kit" but I believe Molly's extra shoes will fit into it perfectly!! Nice. She was tickled when I gave it to her tonight, what a great moment ...to see such a sweet little face lite up so brightly over something so simple.

I really look forward to relaxing and just puttering around the house over the weekend....no travelling, no expectations, no obligations, just nothing but relax and enjoy those days off.
Perfect. ah......to savor some precious time doing what I want, when I want.......huh...perfect!
