4 Time Turkey Trot Champ!!


Emma is the undefeated Turkey Trot champ in Marshfield, 4 years in a row! She has won our turkey for Thanksgiving since the age of 3! She was a little nervous going in to the race this past Saturday, with 3 previous wins under her belt, but she held strong! Yeah for Emma!!


On another note, I have only 5 radiation treatments left!! Two this week and 3 next and I am DONE!!!! Thank God! I don't think poor Lefty can handle much more! After the 28th, I start on the Tamoxifen, make my follow up appts for mammos and MRI's and meet with the surgeon. Then I meet with the Oncologist every 3 months or so. Phew, that was a long 9 months! My hair is growing back in, very salt and peppery, it is longer than Dave's now, which does not say much :) I have actually used the hairdryer and some products, so it does not stick up!! I can't part it yet, maybe by Christmas! Will post some photos of that soon!

Emma...you are just amazing! Can't believe it's been 4 years in a row now! For anyone who hasn't seen Kristin's hair, it looks really good in the style she has...it's growing really fast! So glad it's almost over!

Hooray EMMA! Can you believe that from the time you were 2 1/2 you've won Thanksgiving dinner? Mimi could probably win for the slowest limping Grannie contest. AND...we really give thanks for the end in sight for this medical mystery journey....Tanks Gods! Kris - your hair style is being worn in European fashion shows..XOXOXO...Mom
