Bored

I am in my germ week so I am sequestered to the house and let me tell you, I am so freaking bored!!

I thought I would update you on what's going on with the developing stories in my life. As you're all curious to know I'm sure...my step-sister!!! Well turns out she really was pregnant with twins but she ended up losing one of them a few weeks back. I heard this from my dad. I feel terrible that she lost a baby but to be honest, I think that it's best for her to just have one at a time (her own words). The one she has is thriving and growing right on track.

In other news, we finally got a second car. My DH sold his Blazer last October because, well, it was a piece of shit. We've been going with just my Civic for almost a year now and doing OK. DH is a HS football coach and we knew that we just couldn't do it anymore once FB season started, and alas, it is here. Yesterday we bought a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe. I love it and am so excited that DH and I don't have to plan around who gets to use the car anymore.

I think that sums up my life in a nutshell at this time.

My prayers go out to Brooke & Joe after the loss of their sweet Annaleigh.

PET scan results

So the PET scan results are in...THE CHEMO IS WORKING!!

* There are no new tumors
* The original tumor is not as active, AKA, the cancer cells are dying!!!!
* The tumor might start to shrink now but he's not worried about that as it could change to scar tissue.
* After this round, I have one more!!

We plan to do another PET scan a few weeks after I finish my treatment for good. We will go from there and see what that scan shows and then decide if we want to remove the mass with surgery.

I couldn't ask for anything better. Your thoughts and prayers are working, keep them coming.

Vent

I figure if I can't vent here, where can I?
So here it goes...

My step-sister, and if you read my blog I've mentioned her before, is pregnant after IVF #2. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for her. However, she told me (not that long ago) that if they had twins she would abort one...NOT KIDDING! So now here they are at IVF #2 and guess what my SIL (who's pg with an oops baby) just told me? That's right, step-sister supposedly had an u/s today that showed two sacs. Now, step-sister emailed me on Saturday and said she wasn't having an u/s for two weeks so I'm not sure where the truth is in all this.

Are you following so far? OK, good.

Anyway, supposedly they are OK with twins now but it makes me so angry/hurt/frustrated that someone who would even say such a thing should have the opportunity to have twins. I know a few posts ago I said I was OK with my IF but maybe this is showing that I'm not, I don't know. I feel better after the vent but I'm sure those feelings will go away when I start hearing about the first grand babies etc...PUKE!!! I will feel terrible if anything happens to her now but ugg, I'm just so uggh.

Thanks for listening. I'll keep you updated on the drama.
