For Halloween my grandma had a breakfast for the kids.It was really cute.At bingo kids started getting mad.I won't mention names.

Well, grandma made a WONDERFUL recovery!!! She is now up and running at work! Well, not completely running, she is still pretty tired.

My mom's thyroid surgery went well. She was extremely loopy afterwards and thought my brother's dog, Skipper, was in the room with her. It was pretty funny. However, she's doing great today and has already gone home from the hospital for a few days of R&R.

My littlest grandchild's surgery is today. Please send your prayers.

Hi it's me bids. Here's the news. This week is surgery week. My baby sister has her surgery on the 28th and grandma has hers on the 30th, and my poor brother has his birthday on the 31st. So his baby sister, his mother, and his grandma won't be there. At least he'll have aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course the puppies.(Sophie)

I got my final PET scan results today and the doctor says that I am cancer-free. I'll meet with him again in 3 months to keep track of my progress.

I'm still here not much has happend. When I find something to blog about I wil blog I'll blog it.

My grandma gave me promisson to blog this, because me and her are the only ones that know this story. Ok so yesterday me and my grandma went up to BYU, and as we were entering we saw the biggest bird nest we have ever seen. I thought it was funny when my grandma told me it looked like an eagle nest. I said it look like an ellephant's nest.  So we went to my grandmas office and there where two of her friends there. First she ask scott if he knew who it was he said no. So the next day she went to the deans office. He told her that their not aloud to leave thing like that. So she went to her office and ask scott again and said I have a good idea who did it. (This is the part that makes her giggle.) She saw four boys picking it up before she left, and she couln't help laughing! My grandma said that people thought it was real and some thought that people brought it from the mountains. My grandma never thought a nest could make so much fuss

Sorry it has taken me so long to post this. The past week has been extremely eventful with all the concern over the new baby, all of the family here, and I also got my wisdom tooth out just for fun.

This week has already been really exciting and it's sure to have an exciting finish. My oldest granddaughter came down at the end of last week to see the new baby, play with the kids, see family, and hang out with her grandma. We've had lots of fun so far. We went shopping and to lunch on Saturday to some of my favorite places. Lunch was delicious, but the ambiance was even better. Although the service that day was very poor. That waitress didn't even get me the knife I asked for. But, all in all, my granddaughter and I had a great time.

This weekend was the annual Fairy Tea Party. My mom has gone to this for the past few years with granddaughters and has loved every minute of it. Most of the girls get all dressed up in their fairiest of clothes and my mom usually gets a little dressed up as well. I'm not exactly sure what goes on at the Fairy Tea Party, but I'm sure that there are lots of girly things and I'm sure that my mom and the little girls have a lot of fun.

So, the PET scan brought some good news and some bad news. I didn't think that there would be any bad news so I was a little taken aback when my mom told me and not very happy.
Here's my mom at the baptism. Doesn't my little niece look pretty?

Here's my mom holding my new baby girl.

Overall, it was an eventful Saturday for my mom full of good things.

My mom had her PET scan today and everything went fine. The mobile unit was there, they knew where the technicians were, and they had enough drugs. In other words, it was a miracle. 

My mom is getting her PET scan tomorrow that should tell her whether or not they got all the cancer. Say a quick prayer for her that everything goes well and that the cancer is all gone. I'll post an update tomorrow unless something comes up (i.e., my baby).

Yesterday was Valentine's Day and my mom went all out on a Valentine's Day breakfast for the kids. (Did I mention that my mom loves Valentine's Day? A day full of pink and purple and all things frilly and girly, it's pretty much heaven on earth for my mom.) At the breakfast, my mom had all sorts of cute little gifts for the grandkids in addition to a delicious breakfast.

There were bears, little mailboxes to put valentines into, candies, and a giant heart cookie - don't worry, that's not what was for breakfast...that was just table decoration.

For breakfast there were heart-shaped pancakes (courtesy of my brother) topped with sliced strawberries and whipped topping, bacon, sausage, orange juice, and chocolate milk. All the kids were excited to eat the yummy food - some were even rubbing their bellies in anticipation.

After breakfast the kids got to play with each other while the adults sat around and laughed together. It was a fun day and everyone had a good time, especially my mom - the Queen of Valentine's Day.

My mom is currently going through the after-effects of her last chemo treatment and it hasn't been going well. When she went to her doctor's appointment on Friday they had to hydrate her to try and help her body, take some extra bloodwork, and do a chest x-ray to see if anything was seriously wrong with her. After all of the tests came back her doctor told her that her immune system is incredibly low right now and that she needed to stay in bed, not do anything crazy, and stay far away from anyone who might possibly be sick. So, that is what she's been doing. 

My mom's doctor called her tonight because he didn't want her to have to wait until tomorrow for the news. The PET scan results were really positive. She only has a few spots left and those should be eliminated by the chemo treatment that she gets tomorrow. So, this should be her last chemo treatment and after that she should be cancer free! Whoo-hoo!

My mom was able to have her PET scan yesterday morning. She should find out the results when she goes in for her 6th chemo treatment tomorrow. I'll keep you posted.

My mother just called me to tell me how frustrated she is. The PET scan staff just called to tell her that they wouldn't have enough medicine to accommodate their last two patients for the day and she just happens to be one of those two. So, she won't be getting her scan today.

After she told them that she had already been rescheduled once before and had waited almost a month for this scan, they graciously said that they might be able to squeeze her in tomorrow at 7:30am.

So, please keep praying for my mom, but you might also want to pray that the PET scan actually occurs. Pray that the PET scan staff will be able to find their mobile PET scan unit in the morning and won't lose it overnight and pray that they will have enough medicine to actually accommodate the patients that they schedule.

I apologize for my frustration in this email, but honestly I think trained monkeys could do a better job than those people.

My mom is getting her PET scan tomorrow, which will tell her how effective her chemo treatments have been. She is scheduled for her 6th chemo treatment on Friday and, if the results from the PET scan are good, it could be her last treatment.

My mom is feeling pretty nervous about the results from the PET scan. She would definitely like to beat the cancer and have this be her last treatment. We would all like that too.

We would greatly appreciate all prayers and anyone who could fast.
