Doing Great! My niece from New Zealand surprised me for Christmas! She has not been home in 9 years! Thrilled beyond words. Praying for the energy for tons of memory making! Merry Christmas!

Marianne 💕. Thank you for checking in. You are so good about this 👍

And I can tell that you are settling into our new normal nicely 🙌😊

We are currently down in Southern California spending the holidays with our daughter so could not be happier.

My “Osteonecrosis” turns out to not be!! Had a CAT scan of my face/head and nope the bones actually are growing back very nicely from where the cancer had taken over in my lower mandible. The radiation kicked it buns!! Now off to the periodontist on the 8th to see why all of the sudden part of my gum decided to horribly receed?? I just keep cancor sore medicine on it and brush and flush 5x a day til then as well as rinse with peroxsyl. My body seems to be tolerating the replacement of the femara with the Exemestane really well👍. I’ll take another 19 months on this new drug please😊.

All in All I really have nothing to complain about. My life is truly blessed with a loving family, amazing friends, and all of the amenities that many in this world only dream of having. Clothes, food, heat, clean water....

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you All!!!

I feel love for my faith, family, and friends but physically I'm pretty sore. I have spinal mets and have had the cancerous end of my right femur removed and replaced so this really cold weather isn't doing me any favors. Christmas day we are expecting a wind chill of -30°F. Also feeling down due to this crummy disease and finances. Thankful we have a cold weather rule.

Marianne you are so sweet. I just saw this post. We were visiting relatives who do not have WiFi. I don't do much anymore for Christmas. I just like to be with family and try to remember what this Holiday is all about. Healthier I'm about the same. As always prayers to you and all of us.
