Thanks for the encouraging words everyone. Hey Lisa, it looks like Amy said it - October will come in due time and we have a beautiful summer to get out and enjoy. We have to trust our doctors (and I especially trust my ENT) to do what they do - they got us this far, right? I haven't had time to dwell too much this week because we just put our 14 year old son on the bus for a 2 week Boy Scout trek to Philmont Scout Ranch in New Mexico - they will literally be on the trail for 10 days. That's a more pressing concern for me to have right now - hoping he can avoid the bears, snakes, mountain lions, lightening strike, wildfires and/or flash floods they "advised" us of in the risk advisory! He is my youngest of 3 and you know how us mama's worry! All my husband says is wonder how bad he'll smell on the ride home in 2 weeks? Anyway, we'll stay busy over the 4 day weekend running a concession stand at the pool for our Boy Scout troop - wait - he's off having fun and I'm serving up chili pies - something's not right! Seriously, that's the fun stuff in life and I am grateful to be here enjoying it - I can worry closer to October. Hope everyone here has a relaxing 4th of July - thanks for being here.
