Thursday - Sunday

The good news is the new normal is unriviting content. 

Scott still has a great attitude. The hair loss has made it a fundy conversation for Scott. He had fun at church as it took a little for his friends to recognize him. My running joke is he should be Gru for Halloween. 

The kids are figuring out everything as well. We are peopling more than we thought as well as hibernating when we need it. 

I got to experience Float Nashville. https://floatnashville.com/
It was amazing and I may have even taken a nap in there! Talk about a gentle reset. If you ever get the chance, do it!!!
Father's Day Scott grilled burgers for us. 

Today marks 1/2 way through proposed treatment. We appreciate your prayers as we navigate the second 1/2. God's been unchanging through this and yet we are experiencing more and more of Him. Even when emotions are raw, situations get frustrating, the not knowing creeps behind, we've experienced peace, grace and humor. Don't get me wrong. I'll be relieved when this is completed and we get that clean bill of health. 

Blood count is still low so antibiotics are still a thing. 

Tuesday through Sunday
Life is normalizing. This new normal means naps, tummydrops ginger, chem brain and an appreciation for life.

Last treatment!  Scott's attempting to grow out what hair is left. It's dark, grey and straight. 🤣 Thanks to who dropped gift cards in my bag at church (Ninja!). We enjoyed a Celebratory breakfast on you. Grateful.  This weekend, we enjoyed a Fall day si Tate Farms with Scott's work. I will now blast you with pictures. Remember when you kids would smile for pictures?

  In a sweet turn of events....  The scheduler was new to us.... and she couldn't find an appointment on a Monday for Scott... or Tuesday, so she schedules him for a Wednesday. Which meant he was able to enjoy Canadian Thanksgiving - and we did it well! While the Butter Tarts were not able to make the dessert table, we had enough. Fresh Irish Apple Crumble, Tiramisu, Pumpkin Pie and Nanaimo Style Alabama Bars (Thank you Emma, Corner Gas). It was a great meal he could taste.  Scott has 1 more Treatment and he is counting the days. He rests a lot. Sunday is a great example. He may or may not sleep Saturday Night. He will go to church and then eat lunch. By 1pm he's ready to sleep 3+ hours.  Chemo brain is a real thing and will be grateful for it to go away. In other news, this is time together that we would have never taken for ourselves. We have been forced to face our souls (mind, will and emotions) and find out what we really believe about health and healing. Do we ...
