Big B's 6th today....Chemo tomorrow

On this day six years ago, a strapping young lad entered our world, the world hasn't been the same since! Bryce Edward La Mar. He was born on the same day as his great grandfather, Lonnie La Mar. Tonight the families are coming over to help celebrate with hamburgers (hanggubers as he calls them) and hot dogs. Bryce is very excited to say the least. What a joy he has been for Sheri and I, full of energy and always looking for fun. He helps keep things light and in perspective. Sometimes a good fire and movie is all you really need, ya know? Maybe a marshmellow thrown in for good measure. Happy Birthday Buddy, our big boy!!!!

Tomorrow is back to our new routine, chemo day. Sheri's taking the whole day off this time (usually it's a half day) because her Doctor needs to get home early. With the colds and chemo her energy was a little off this past week, but she troupered through just fine. Two more months until be go back in for some scans to see how things are in her liver and bones. Two months seems so far away sometimes. I'm not very good at sitting and waiting. One of the things that has been a struggle for me has been putting our lives on hold. We are both planners and doers, so waiting is difficult. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not whining (well maybe a little), it's one of those things I didn't expect to feel when we headed down this road. I'm sure God is molding me somehow though all of this, so that's ok. Pray for the chemo tomorrow, get that cancer boys!
