Still in Remission - Praise God!

Hello Family and Friends,
I've been lazy and not updated my blogspot. Actually, I forgot what my blogspot was entitled. I decided that wasn't fair to all of you who care so much about me and my sis-in-law sent it to me so I could do my update. Thanks Shelley Ann. She put it in my section of the "Yezzello Pages" so you can all go in and read about little ole me! ("Yezzello Pages" is our own personal phone book for our family only.)
I'm still in remission and rejoice that God has spared my life! I think about brain cancer and all of those who are afflicted with this dreaded cancer. When Ted Kennedy was diagnosed with brain cancer I knew that God would use him as in instrument to get the word out about brain cancer. There's still so much research that needs to be completed and I believe that with Mr. Kennedy being in the Senate that more money will be set aside for this. I'm also anxious to see what our president-elect, Barack Obama, will do for the cancer survivors.
Nonetheless, my report was good from Dr. Maher. In fact, it was so good that I don't have to go back for 3 months now instead of 2 months. YAY! I asked if we could extend it 1 more month, but she didn't feel confident enough yet for that to happen.
Bill, my wonderful husband of 33 years, is a terrific caregiver! He makes sure that I get my medicine when I'm supposed to have it. I miss him when he travels. A big part of me is gone when he's not around. My house is big, but it's really BIG when he's gone!
My next doc appt. is Feb. 20th. Keep those healing prayers coming my way.
Health and Blessings,
Jeanine
