Chemo meds starting again...
Well Mimi called me to say that her blood counts were where the oncologist wanted them and she is to start back on the chemo meds again; 4 days a week. She returns to see them again in a month so as I hear information, I will share it.
The girls and I will be staying with Mimi this weekend as JJ and Papa are invited to go up to the Great Wolf Lodge with all the family and their kids. Should be fun for them.
Keep the prayers coming! And thanks!

MRI Results are good!
Mimi, Papa and I went to see the Oncologist yesterday for her MRI results and.....there has been no grown in the tumor! Yeah! Her blood counts were not exactly where they want them yet so she has a re-check next Wednesday and if everything is okay, she will start the Tamodar (chemo) medication again. I will keep you updated as I hear.
Thank you for your continued prayers for Mimi. She is doing what she can each day to keep herself busy and even though she seems to have a cold right now, she is working hard at keeping her spirits up.
Love to all and thanks again!

Busy Saturday...
Mimi had a visitor this morning all the way from Sun City, Florida! Barb Griggs-Moore, a long-time friend, who was in Michigan visiting her children. She stopped by for about an hour and visited with mom. She brought over some sweets and JJ liked that!
At 12:30pm, JJ had his fourth flag football game in Onsted. Well even though it rained and was breezy, they pulled out a win (they are 4-0!).
Tina took Mimi to get some jeans and run some other errands after that. Whew....she is tired out and glad to be home for supper. Papa is making fish! Yum yum!
Well she had a great day and now she is ready for some good rest so she can go to church in the morning.
Thanks for all your continued prayers and the lovely cards that are still coming in. We appreciate all your support.
Oh and thanks to everyone who has been bringing food over for suppers! It is most appreciated!?!

Going to church
Last Sunday was extra special for us....being in 3rd grade now, JJ got his own Bible AND Mimi was able to make it to church! That made it even more special.
Today Mimi came to church again. That is quite a task since she has worked hard to get better. Even though she still struggles with her eyesite, she came and worshiped and it was wonderful to see her there! So many people have prayed and continue to pray and that is much appreciated! Thank you all!
Yesterday I finished book 3 of her cards and made a special small scrapbook of pictures for JJ of he and his dad. It was a bittersweet task for a couple reasons. One, I went to the scrapbooking event that Mimi was suppose to go to but because she wasn't up to it, I went in her place. Second, the book I created brought Jeff to mind a lot. I remember so many wonderful things about him and I know the little book I made will help JJ recall the times he shared with his dad too.
God is good and I am so grateful for many things in life but at this time especially I am grateful for my mom and all that she has done for me and given me and shared with me. I appreciate every moment even small ones that I can share with her.
Please keep praying for mom, dad and JJ. God has blessed us all with the opportunity to pray for those in need. Thank you all!

Update from Mimi
Well I talked with Mimi last night and I hoped for something more positive but here is the update. Mimi started back on the Chemo medication and the steroids. She has been having headaches again, feeling more tired than usual, and just not feeling like herself. Her MRI has been moved up to October 5th where they will look to see if there are any changes in the tumor.
Please continue to pray for Mimi, Nuna and JJ as they have a lot to deal with on a daily basis. Prayers are appreciated and so are the cards. Family and friends have been bringing food over and that has been a blessing since Nuna has a lot of responsibility. He doesn't like to ask for help either so if you want to do something, please feel free.
I am glad Mimi doesn't have to go to radiation but I miss having lunch with her on Fridays. I think I will have to just meet her for lunch anyways when she is up to it!
Pray that Mimi feels up to attending the scrapbooking event this Saturday with her friend Sandy (who signed her up! what an awesome friend!) It would be so good for her to get out of the house and be with such a group of ladies who will no doubt be glad to see her. God is good and I do believe in miracles and so I am asking that we all pray for just that; a miracle for Mimi to be healed. Thank you all. We love you all for your continued support of our family!
