Happy New Year!

So, 2008. I believe this is my year of healing. My resolutions are pretty simple: remission, vacation, and celebration! Probably in that order. Oh, I am also going to have a birthday party for myself this year and hopefully every year for the rest of my life. Why the hell not. It is time for all of us to celebrate life, and what better way to do that ~ celebrate the day we were born! Stop taking this life and those we love for granted. Why is it that it takes something for cancer to actually bring meaning to things like "Don't sweat the small stuff." Which by the way is a great book. Did you know that the author of that book died? His wife has put a book together that is coming out this month. I think it is about the letters he wrote her throughout their marriage. I may be wrong. I will let you know because I plan on reading it as soon as I can get it. I just finished For One More Day by Mitch Albom. Everyone should read it. You will treat your mother with more respect when you are done. I need to add it to my book list. Enough rambling for now. I have treatment again on Thursday, so I will add another post later that week. I do want to ask that all of you send out prayers, well wishes, vibes (whatever you fancy) to my friend Rich. I am sure he would appreciate them right now.

We really enjoyed our visit last week with you guy's! I sent some really cute pictures via email, let me know if you didn't get them, because they are really cute! Our trip to Pismo was a success, and the weather was fabulous! We did cut out a day early, I was ready to be home, and not stuck in the trailer with an infant! Hope you're feeling good, you look amazing, and I really enjoyed our chat! Love you very much, and let's plan a get together as soon as you're up to it, Jayce LOVED playing with his cousin Carra!
Kisses,
Kerry

Hi Sue, hope this message finds you well. I couldn't agree more with you about taking life, and family, for granted. Unfortunately for most of us, it does take losing our health temporarily to realize how precious it really is. My mom has been ill and believe me, it has taught me to cherish every healthy moment with her. I hope your treatments are going well and wanted to let you know I'm thinking of you.
