So here's a quick update on what's up in our lives. Ted is very involved in his assistant coaching position at WHS baseball right now. The team has their state quarter final game on this Tues and then the state semi and final on Fri and Sat. They are ranked #1 and will have a winning streak that is the 2nd longest in any Utah baseball team history if they take state. One other stat is they are 72 wins and 5 losses right now from freshman to seniors. Lance and Tyce are Seniors! Crazy. They are pretty excited for this week.
TJ is loving Kindergarten. His favorite things are the Smart Board and his friends. He has grown so much and is very independent. He loves his Grandmas and Grandpas and spending time with them is something he enjoyes very much. Grandma Johnson has got him hooked on Game Show Network. They lay in her bed to watch and eat popcicles.
I have been busier than ever, so it feels. I think I just keep getting myself into more and more. This last month has been kind of emotional. We have found a different route to trying to get pregnant. We have found out more in one day, than we have in the last 5 years of going to fertility specialists and such. So maybe, hopefully we will have good news in a few months.
And my Mom's battle with ovarian cancer is becoming very tough. She was diagnosed in Aug of 06 and she finished treatments in Jan or Feb, and was in remission (or so we thought) for about a year. Her cancer spread to her brain and she was treated in Jan and Feb of this year... well it has come back again and is very aggressive. This last month has been challenging. Her symptoms are dehabilitating. She is frustrated and tired. We want her to keep fighting.
This week, next week and the next she will have a chemotherapy drug they have used in lung cancer patients with the cancer spread to the brain. Her doctors haven't personally seen ovarian cancer in the brain before. Her case is very rare. Hopefully we can be more aware of this cancer and find the cause and prevent it from happening... I have my ideas. Well, who knows what will take place in the next few months, so I hope you'll be patient in my posting.
