Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Well, first I am going to say sorry for I know I will ramble in this email, for my thoughts are going through my head so fast. We leave Monday for our 7 week adventure in Iowa City with my husband chemo and radiation. Hopefully this will prolong his life and make him more comfortable. It's been a rough month here. It has been 3 weeks since the kids have stayed at home with 7 more on the way. We try to get them to stay a couple of hours everyday, but when is not feeling well and has to have a tremendous amount of care it is hard for me to have both of them here. They cry and scream when we have to take them to grandma and grandpa's. Karter now has another sore on his foot. Which I will try to get healed before we leave Monday. No promises to either grandma on that. Just not enough time for it to heal. It is relatively small compared to the others he has had. Will try to call Monday and see if I can get the new pads Christee was talking about. In the meantime grandma will be up at nights with him. We are also getting to the end of the shoes. Was hoping we could make in till the end of July. Don't know now. We have about a 1/4 of an inch. Now as a last thought of mine. We have some wonderful mothers on this group. Just a thought as we seem to go by with our everyday lifes. Spend as much time with your families as you can. All of you together. I think back and think how wonderful it was that went fishing every Sat. and now I just think that I should have went with him. All those sat. that we were not as a family. At 26 you think you have 50 years of Sat. and don't think much of one day. Those 50 more years have been taken from me and my children, so I ask you all, as we are doing, make everyday special with your families. Now that I am crying once again on to the next. To this group: We will forever be grateful in finding you. Leading us to Dr. P., helping with sores and finding the s. You to are like family and I truely care about everyone on here. It was here that made our journey with Karters feet wonderful. He will be two in the end of July and he is truely a little boy, thanks to all of you. THANK YOU.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Tabitha, it's so sweet and thoughtful of you in this trying time to remind us all of the true importance in life. We all get so carried away with little things that we actually forget to truly live and be with our families. I wish you and your family all the very best.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Hi Tabitha, I am so sorry for all you and your family are going through right now. I can't even imagine all you are dealing with and the incredible emotions you must be feeling. I don't know where you live, but I'm thinking it might be somewhere close to Iowa. Is there anything at all that you can think of that some of us could pull together and do for you at this time that would help you? I mean this from my heart. Will you be staying at the RMH when you and are out there? Thanks for your words of wisdom to us about remembering what truly matters in life - time with our loved ones. I know sometimes I get caught up in the little things in life that really don't matter and forget to focus on the bigger picture. You are an amazing person and hopefully I'll get to meet you and your family someday soon. Please keep us posted.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Tabitha, I'm not sure if you will see this, but I wanted to wish you luck and let you know y'all are in my prayers. I can't imagine what you are going through, and for you to be thinking of us at a time like this says a lot about your character. Thank you for the reminder to spend a little less time wrapped up in the things that don't matter! Best of luck to you all!

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Tabitha, I'm a little late in responding, you are probably already on your way to Iowa, and everyone else has already said so much of what I would say to you, but I just wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you and your family. I also wanted thank you for the reminder about spending time with your loved ones, it's something that often goes unnoticed. Lots of love, > > Well, first I am going to say sorry for I know I will ramble in this email, for my thoughts are going through my head so fast. > > We leave Monday for our 7 week adventure in Iowa City with my husband chemo and radiation.
