August Already?!!

I could not believe it when I turned my phone on this morning it said August 1st! How did it get this late in the summer? Granted there is a full month left but I guess I have flashbacks to when I was a kid or a teacher and it meant the times of freedom and fun were winding down! Well this summer has been way too quick for most of us! I feel like the kids just got out of school and now we are back to school shopping! Yikes!

I know what is coming in September...schedules to the highest degree! Yep, so once I accepted that things are going to pick up in a big way ... not that summer swim team is not keeping us busy...I really have tried to just live each day to the fullest! Ok, if it means to pass out with a nap that is even better!! I hope you are all enjoying the season and all that comes with it ...

I have learned so much in the last 6 months. I have mixed emotions on this 6 month anniversary. On one hand I am wondering why my vision didn't return. I mean 6 months is pretty much the medical cut off for things like vision to return...why isn't it back? I have been working hard on trying to eat all the right foods, take the right supplements, and many other things I don't want to get into right now. But that is the way it is right now. I accept that and have tried to move forward with everything that it has taught me. I have cried so many tears (yes that eye still makes tears) and really don't understand how I managed to have a brain tumor. I still walk into walls, car doors, people (especially little kids who are short!) and don't know when someone is standing on my left hand side. So.... life goes on. Yes!! That's it. Life did go on and I am grateful beyond words that I can say that!

Gratitude....
May you all find it on your best days and those days that are horrible!

Here is a thank you to those people who have given me what I needed!!

Welcome to my Blog!

Thanks for visiting my blog ... I decided to write it as there were many concerned friends and family that needed to learn about this phase of my life - leading up to surgery on February 8th. I have now had the surgery and am recovering here at home. I love all your comments! They make me smile and I am so truly inspired by them! I can not believe how much support there is out there...it matters so much to us! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
