Wow! Hard to believe it's been over six months since we found out Tommy had cancer. I remember thinking I'd never be able to raise and parent both kids, let alone be a wife and a working woman. NEVER under mind your power or abilities! You just never know what you are capable of and this has been one of those times.
Don't get me wrong....we've had my parents, my dear friend Kim and my sisters all here to help during treatments. Daryl's parents came to visit for a few days and his sister for a day. And Aunt Suzanne and Uncle Dan (daycare) have kept Maggie over night several times and Auntie Grace and Uncle Craig (neighbors) have been here for us to lean on, bring us Craig's awesome cook'n, visits at the Dr's house and the list just goes on and on with them. Windermere has been so generous with supplying us with dinners and doing all my "honey do's" I email to Debra, Andrea, Jenny and Queen Bee. The 313th Squadron at McChord AFB has been wonderful and supporting us with any and every request with Daryl's schedule - thank you to you all in the 313th.
Then there are all the emails, the replies to the blog, the prayers, the hats, the phone calls, the cards from everyone that let's us know how much we are loved and supported.
I will never be able to let any of you know just how much this has meant to us. I do not ever want to walk in my shoes again down this road once we reach the end, but I have learned countless lessons. To be as strong as we are to get through this means we are thankful for all good, bad, happy, challenging times we lived through before now. We just hope things start to get easier for us, at least for a while. Keep prayers going -- <><

We are looking at one hand now when we think of Tommy's treatments! God has had his arm's of protection around Tommy, and will continue to do so.
Papa sure enjoyed his week up there with all of you, and we are now looking at only 11 more days, and we will both be there to chip in and help.
Papa loved hearing that Maggie Mae was looking for him this morning!
Tell Tommy to get ready to party for Maggie's big 2nd birthday celebration!
Continued prayers and love to all four of you.
Love you all . .. MORE!
Gee & Papa
