Hi Everyone
So much has happened. My sister finished 4 months of chemo and then finished 26 rounds of chemoradiation. This past Tuesday she has her ileostomy reversal surgery and yesterday she came home. She has a new surgeon who is knowledgeable and kind and is the chief of the department. Her last surgeon was horrible which is why I think she wanted to stop everything and just give up. So far everything is looking good. She was able to return to work. Last boss didn’t allow her to work from home. Won’t God do it!!!!! Won’t He showoff!!!
September 4,2019 the more I realize how precious life is. Where you aren’t guaranteed anything.
Hang in there everyone. We all got this.
