Video: Pierogi making and Petrifying Springs
This week I was in contact with more people than I have been recently. That really felt good. A week ago Saturday, I spent the day with Mark’s mom and sister Karen making pierogies for our Christmas Eve dinner. We always make a huge batch and freeze them until the holiday, it’s part of our Polish tradition.
Saturday was one of the best days that I have had in a very long time. We were able to meet up with my sisters and our great nieces Nadine and Zoey at Petrifying Springs Park. For the past two years, I have been babysitting for Nadine and Zoey on Tuesdays. Since starting chemo I haven’t been able to do that. It has been a month and a half since I spent any time with them. We had a great time playing frisbee and hiking through the woods, laughing and trying on wigs. I feel so sad when I don’t get to be with them. They change so fast and I hate to miss out on anything they do.

Yeah Betty that was really nice to run into Tom like that. I feel that I was blessed with family that day! :)
Amy..so happy to see you out having fun. Nice to see the girls as well. All you guys look great. We are always thinking about you n praying for you. Ran into Bill over the weekend and he mentioned Jeff in conversation regarding your war wounds from the good old days..would love to hear that story. Love your blogs. Good luck with your next 12 weeks of treatments. Love ya..Jeff n Jodi :)
Jodi – It’s so good to hear from you two. Yeah I thought it was funny how I just got done showing Bill a few little scars on my head related to a time Jeff and Tommy Burke and I were digging to China. Bill then goes to the store and who does he run into but you and Jeff. Ah what great memories. LOL….

Amy,
I have been following your progress and am very excited for you that you are seeing improvement in your fight to beat this. I keep my mom posted on your latest updates since they don’t do the technology thing. Keep up the great progress and thanks so much for sharing.

Steve – Thanks for following along with me. I think it’s great to be able to share my progress with family & friends who live near or far. Isn’t technology great!
I have talked to your mom a couple of times and will reach out to her again this week.
