Well since my last post mom has steadily been improving. We had an amazing visit with Erica, Michael and Max over the Halloween weekend. On Sunday afternoon we shared our Thanksgiving dinner at our house. Mom was able to rest when the babies took naps to maintain her stamina. Needless to say trick or treating with grandbabies had to be more fun that when she did it with just us :)

Mom and I talk every day on the phone atleast once. I can tell day by day if things are going better for her and I believe, most days anyway, that they are. She has still had some issues with her stomach but again that is to be expected with as much radiation as they have undergone. We try to get together a day or two out of the week if she is feeling up to it. Haidyn called her today. She is getting over a cold. Haidyn asked, "GiGi, do you have a frog in your throat?" GiGi and Grandy of course both laughed. Grandy said he had just gotten up and Haidyn wanted to know if he felt better. haha. Whenever she wakes up she tells us she feels so so better. Gotta love the things a 2 year old comes up with.

I don't know that any of us have big plans for Thanksgiving this year. One thing I do know though is how thankful we all are for God's grace in leading us through the last two years. He has been so good by continuing to hear and answer all the prayers, show love and support to us through you and to provide the most amazing medical team we ever could have hoped for. We hope everyone has a blessed Thanksgiving. You will never know how much we appreciate you and your prayers.
