Answered prayers

Well Friday 8-14-09 was day #14 of Mimi's treatments! Yeah! Half way through this treatment regimen. Danielle spent the night Thursday night 8-13-09 because Chuck had plans to attend the Annual Dewey Lake Fishing Tournament, starting early Friday morning. Although he didn't win the biggest fish (he was tied for first mid-day) he had fun just being a guy, fishing and well, relaxing. Danielle stayed with Mimi and JJ Friday morning and after I got out of work, I picked them up and brought them over to the house as Mimi had her treatment that afternoon. She had shared with me her goal that day was to have me find her some silk head scarves that she could wear to protect her head when she had to go out. Wearing them also makes her a little more comfortable. So as we set out for Jackson, we stopped by a few garage sales but no luck. Tried a consignment shop in Brooklyn but the only ones they had were Coach name brand and were new so we couldn't see spending that kind of money. Well, we went through Michigan Center and a consignment shop there had three of them! Her favorite one was only $1! Then when I saw the American Cancer Society building we pulled in. I went in to talk with them about what exactly they do there. They were very nice and I signed up Mimi for some support literature and then when I told the gal about the scarf search she said 'here are three (free) ones' that someone donated yesterday. So, mom now has 7 scarves (including the one Aunt Joyce lent her). Mom was so happy she said 'God really answered my prayers didn't he?' After her treatment we went for coney dogs at Jackson Coney Island and then headed home to rest. The day was a success and mom is doing well.....attitude and all. Thank you all for your support!
