The Steam Train
As you all know I have been terribly behind on sharing what our family has been up to. Amongst Joel’s treatments and the busyness of life we have had the chance to have some fun. I have…
Joel feels great!
Joel and I came home yesterday. His Oncologist and her team came by to see him yesterday morning and asked if he had any breakfast. I said, “Yes he had some Cheerios and then a rice krispie…

Back at the Hospital
