Granddaughter's First Birthday









Hello Friends, sorry I haven't posted in quite awhile. We haven't done much since Dad is still undergoing treatments. Last Saturday Mom and Dad went to a birthday party to celebrate granddaughter Kennedy's first birthday. It doesn't seem possible that she is already a year old. She is so adorable, unfortunately she is not real fond of me. I really do want to play with her. This evening she and her daddy came to our place for a hamburger cookout. She had to checkout Grandma's fridge before she helped Grandpa do the grilling. She was real tired so they didn't stay long.




Like I mentioned earlier, Dad is still undergoing his treatments. He has radiation treatments every day in Anderson, SC, which is close by. However, once a week we have to go to Columbia, SC for his chemo treatment. We go down and spend the night since his treatment starts so early in the morning. The doctor told Dad yesterday that the treatments are working as the tumor is shrinking. That's great news.




Lenny is no longer part of our family. Some people with kids and room to run expressed interest in him. Since Dad is weak from his treatments and doesn't have the strength to control him, Mom and Dad thought is best to let him go to a new family. We miss him but know he is happy with his new family.

Glad to hear treatments are going well. We are reading this blog from Baylor Hospital wher Fel is laid up for extreme road rash and a broken knee cap with torn tendon. Training wheels failed! Everything is OK and he is on the road to recovery.
