Nothing New

All is quiet around here on the cancer front. No new scans or doctor visits until December. I am supposed to be getting a mammogram and a bone density test done but keep forgetting to schedule them. My past treatments leave me at a higher risk for breast cancer, so I will get the annual mammograms as a preventive measure. And the bone density test is to get a baseline because the treatments can cause a loss of bone function and leave you at risk of osteoporosis at an earlier age.

The kids are doing well in school - hard to believe the first nine weeks is half over. Both are playing fall baseball and that keeps us running. My part time job appears to have become sorta permanent...seeing as how I was supposed to be done in May and I am still working!! It adds some stress to our routines, but I still have lots of time at home with the kids and I am getting some great experience career-wise.

The holidays will be here before we know it. I am looking forward to it, but I still miss the summer!!!
