Here I am again, a month later... Its something about the Winter that demotivates me. I have never considered myself one whose disposition changes in the dark cold months of Winter, but something happens. If nothing else I realize as I get older how little I like the snow and cold.
Anyway I MUST share what a wonderful time we had during the Christmas holiday! Dad and Mom were able to come to Columbus and spend their 50th Wedding Anniversary with us on Christmas Eve. It was fun! We surprised them with a limousine ride and dinner. They shared their special evening with Dad's brothers and their wives, and his sister Birdie. (Uncle John was not feeling well so he and Aunt Francine did not make dinner, however they made a pit stop at their home on the way back from dinner.) They had a blast!
On Christmas day we had our traditional Robertson family dinner. My Aunt Faye's family joined us this year. We had great fellowship and food as usual. We also carried the anniversary celebration over on Christmas day by setting up a special area for Dad and Mom to sit along with a special time of recognition. We were able to take some time and share Dad's testimony of how God is working a miracle of healing in his body. Of course an invitation for receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior was given by Mom.
For those of you who don't know, Jesus IS coming back soon! Please make plans to go back with Him!
Dad took his last radiation treatment a few days ago. He is doing well. He looked so good while down here on his visit. I believe they both had a wonderful time with family. It has been a rough time of it, but God is bringing them THROUGH.
Thank you cousin Ben for your prayers and inspiration. We see the radiology oncologist and Dad's medical oncologist in a week. We will get an update of how the radiation has worked a few weeks thereafter. We should also know what the next step is for treatment and chemo soon.
Thank you for hanging in here with me. And as always keep the prayer and praise wheel turning. Love you all.
