Sunshine!

Sunshine!

Good morning! It is a beautiful day and the sun is bright and cheery. I had the first decent night's sleep in absolute ages. No waking up at 3 am! no tossing and turning. One full night of deep and undrugged sleep! Whooooo hoooo. Amazing what sleep and sunshine do for me!

My DH is up and about again today after a brush with flu left him flattened this week. He is not perfect yet but definitely on the mend!

On the Cancer front all is calm and so am I. I got a letter from my oncologist confirming that my radiation is complete and that is for immigration. I am so happy that that is one more step completed. I am beginning to feel stronger and ready to do more again.

A word of thanks....

I am so aware of all the people out there that are helping to repay my benefactor. I cannot thank you all enough. We are almost there now.... I started off with a bill of $10 000 for the operation to remove the breast lump that I had. It took every penny that we had and we had to secure a loan from a bank to cover the costs. Then we learned that I had to have radiation too and that it would cost $17000 and I fell apart. I knew that there was no way to secure the money that we needed. It was at this stage that our local community started working the internet and their intranet! To the people that have contributed so far I say thank you very very much! I would not have had this treatment if not for you. To all the South Africans, the New Zealander and those from the UK and the United States that have given of their time, finances and just general encouragement, please know that no good deed goes unseen. I pray that you will all be blessed by my Heavenly Father who cares for me. As far as I know there is still an amount that is outstanding but I will be guessing if I tell you how much it is. I have been busy focussing on my health and rebuilding my strength. I am indebted to you all.

THANK YOU!
