Feels So Good Feelin' Good Again



I haven't posted in a while. I have been in the hospital with another pancreatitis flare up. I came home over the weekend and I was sure glad to be with my boys again! We took this pic out in the pasture on Sunday. We burnt off the trash pile and Nathan enjoyed sitting on the lawn mower. I can't believe he will be 11 months tomorrow! Halloween is going to be great. Nathan is a tiger. I am a harem dancer and George is a cut throat pirate. I will definitely post that pic when available. Mom and Dad are moving to a new house in the same neighborhood. The new house is so much brighter and with a huge backyard! Nathan and Elly can run to their hearts content. I missed my 20th high school reunion while in the hospital this past week. It does get to me a little. That is the drag of having pancreatitis. You can never plan anything and you never know how you are going to feel from one day to the next. I'm grateful for each day I have that allows me to function as a normal human being. But they are starting to be hard to come by, lately. Nathan's energy and enthusiasm for each new day gives me the added boost I need to lift my spirits. Be truly grateful for your good health because you never know what life will bring you. I know I would not be here today if it wasn't for the discipline, determination and attitude as an athlete to "never give up". And I won't, because I still see a small ray at the end of this path my life has taken. Over 75 hospital visits in the past 7 years, I have the bands to prove it and I'm still hanging in there. I can't give up, for Nathan's sake now.........

    Hi:)
    What a cute boy!!!! 11 months? Wow! Too young:)
    In Japan, few people dress up in Halloween....Halloween is not so important for Japanese....but I like it, so I wanted to say "Trick or treat!!" when I was a child. But too late:P I'm 19 years old.
