Life goes on

For those of you still checking here, (I'm looking at you, Caroline!) I apologize for not updating.

Let's see what there is to say- well, Aaron et al had a great time in Colorado. Aaron, Ann Marie and Troy with Ashley, Crystal, Shelby, Kyana, Dustin and Kylee went to an Ozzy Osbourne & Rob Zombie concert several nights before leaving Denver. Ann Marie got them seats they were all pleased with. Dustin said it was the best night of his life. He also strained his neck after all that head banging. Coming back to NY, Aaron and Glenda upgraded to a sleeper and that made the journey back a little more fun.

Christmas was laid back and relaxed, as were Aaron's and Tiffani's birthdays. Aaron's brother, Adam got Aaron a Cotton Candy maker for Christmas, so she can now have cotton candy on a paper cone whenever she wants!

Aaron has been continuing the chemo started in Colorado. It makes her very tired and the steroids she is taking have caused her to become a bit swollen. Walking is very difficult. On the positive side, the last time she had an x-ray, the mass had not grown. She will have chemo again this Wednesday and a CAT scan sometime in the near future.

It is the season for Relay for Life. I will be walking in it in Aaron's honor, as well as a number of other friends dealing with cancer and for several friends who have passed away. If Aaron is not in Florida the night it occurs here, she plans on doing a circuit or two with me. If you have a Relay for Life benefit in your area, take part!
