Feeling Good Feels Good

Life can get exceptionally overwhelming at times. Sometimes tragedy can make you forget the good things in life. Then again there are some days, such as today, that make you remember just how wonderful all the hidden "treasures" in life can be, once you allow yourself to see them.

Shannon's 2nd surgery has proven to be a success to the best of our knowledge, or should I say to her Doctors knowledge. We were all stopped dead in our tracks when the 1st surgery claimed results of stage 1 cancer. (Recap - this was AFTER they told her that she was in the clear, what a horrible day that must have been for her...as well all of us.)

The second surgery comes and goes as of a few days ago. Best guess from the Hospital at first glance before lab confirms is that we are in the clear. *Exhale*

I cannot begin to comprehend what this must have been like for Shannon. (Jarod's Mother)

What did my Mother-in-Law and her Husband do while waiting for this 2nd surgery and anxiously awaiting the unknown?
  • Help Prime/Paint our new home.
  • Rip out existing floors.
  • Install Pergo floors.
  • Install Ceramic tile floors.
  • Install trim work throughout.
  • Remove/Apply new grout in both bathrooms.
Unbelievable. We are so *blessed* to be associated with such selfless , hardworking and generous parents.

Thank you to our friends and family that have kept Jarod and his Mother in your thoughts and prayers...
