My awesome hubby took me to dinner for celebration of the end of my radiation. We ate at the Klinkerdagger restaurant, a unique historic building that was originally a flour mill. The food was delicious, the atmosphere amazing as we looked out the window and watched the raging Spokane River Spring water falls. Breathtaking. A special card and ribbons decorated the table congratulating me, and the waiter brought their famous creme brulee and a chocolate sundae for Tatum. Before we left, the chef who cooked our meal came out to congratulate me on finishing my radiation and wish me well. He then shared that his wife just finished her radiation three days ago as well. WOW! I am amazed most every day at the number of women who are blasted with breast cancer. I wish I were younger-and smarter-I'd go back to school, become a research scientist and search (not for the cure) for the CAUSE. I so want to learn what's causing all of this cancer, so we can work together to prevent it. That's my prayer, and until it is found, I plan to be prudent with my exercise, what I eat, what I cook my food in, and what I put on my skin. (just call me crazy woman!) Oh well…we're all a tad bit crazy, I imagine.
We arrived home to find a beautiful flower arrangement of geraniums, (my favorite) and ivy's and other greens, from my dear cousin and her hubs; Dawn and Ike! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Prayer warriors: Thanksgiving for Kelli-her surgery went very well, and please continue for her complete healing and no recurrence. Please continue prayers for: Ike and Dawn, Mark and Corine, Betsey, Jo and Jon, and Greg.
HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL AT THE PARTY TOMORROW-4:00-7:00!
