I know I've been quiet about the issue lately. It's just hard for me at times.
Your google word of the day is malabsorption. It causes 1/3 of cancer deaths.
Her cancer is stage 3, which means spreading was involved. At this time, radiation & chemo are not an option. She is too weak to handle it.
She is on meds for the malabsorption, but they are not working. I have another call into the oncologist.
I have explained to Cole, were this issue ever to arise with me, to place me in a home, for it does affect the caregiver's health and family.
Right now, I need the wisdom to know the difference. And a weeks vacation at Disney.
Thanks for your ear.

Wilma, sounds like you have a busy week and weekend planned! You never get to rest lady!
Angie, are those fires near you? Spiderwick Chronicles is a series, but I don't know if they are going to do any more movies. I haven't heard. We rented it this weekend too, we saw it at the theater but the boys wanted to see it again. BTW, 10,000 BC wasn't as bad as I feared, but not good enough to see at the theater.
Howdy, Sassies! Is everyone gone for the morning? I am having my ten minute rest and then it's out for the day's errands. Barney did double practices this morning and I had to get BamBam across town for his art camp so the morning was hectic. We are hosting an Olympic Trials party for the swim team tonight and preparing to go to NY/NJ Wed-Sun so there is lots to do.
Heather - We have never rented games before. Please don't tell Barney or it will become another thing I have to fit in my schedule.No can do, Barney-man. I can't believe Joey will be 4 so soon!
Becca - I hear you on the Aerosmith thing! I don't know if I can hold Barney off on buying it on his own long enough to get it for Christmas, though. It looks like fun! Barney is a Micheal Phelps fan too, but probably an even bigger Ian Crocker fan. Ian is the best at 100 Fly (Barney's best event) and he loves to jam on his guitar. Plus, he's ADD too and had to overcome a lot to be where he is. Katie Hoff swam beautifully last night! The women are going to need amazing swims, there's some good international competition out there for them.
Bonnie - I am fan of the fountain drink over the bottle/can too. It tastes so much better! Plus, I burp less and that is always a plus.
Tricia - I thought you could jump 27 feet in your sleep.Did you see that pole vaulting? My boys were digging that!
Judi, Julie and Kimmy - aloha! What's up?
Angie - I am getting fed up with FNS - there are so many "chefs" there who don't seem to know food! That's ridiculous! I would think that would be a requirement, don't you?![]()
Hope to see you all this afternoon!

Good morning Sassies! I for one am VERY glad it's a four day work week.
Friday night at around 1:30am our female dog Sierra jumps up on the bed and snuggles up next to me. She never does that, so I woke myself up and then I heard one of the smoke detectors was beeping (she was scared). It was just the beep they do when the batteries are low. But it took me like 2 hours to get back to sleep! Don't you just hate lying there and not being able to fall asleep?? So Saturday night I slept for 9 1/2 hours!
Do you guys have big plans for the 4th? It's too stinkin' hot here to go watch the fireworks, but we have a baseball spring training stadium pretty close to our house and we can see their fireworks from our house. So we can sit in the A/C and watch them. Not quite the same, but I'm not really up for sitting out in 105 degree temps to watch them up close!
We watched the Spiderwick Chronicles this weekend-I thought it was pretty cute. Does anyone know if this is a series, or will there just be one movie?
There is one burning in Phoenix, but it is pretty far south of us. The smoke plume is amazing-you can see it for miles. You'd think there wouldn't be much to burn in the desert, but we have lots of scraggly looking bushes and little trees that are usually extremely dry. The other fire is north of us in the mountains. It's so sad when there is a fire in the mountains here-that's where we go to see trees and green!!

I've never traveled outside the US unless you count the time we briefly stepped over the us/Canadian border while we were in Glacier National Park![]()
I like mostly old school games like Ms Pacman too. And old school Frogger is my fave. Some of the new games are just too difficult for me.
The kids want to run to the corner store for treats so I will talk to you later![]()
Bye Heather!]
And yes, I have traveled to Mexico and the Caribbean. But I wanna go to Europe. Waaaah!!![]()
