Glad things are starting to feel more normal again ... that's always a good sign! 💖

I am slowly getting rid of congestion, sudafed is my friend (haha) and my son is now also befriending sudafed to not feel dizzy and congested. My step dad finished 15 rounds of consecutive radiation treatments and he has nw scans in a few weeks. We will see if the tumour is reduced so he may consider having eye lid surgery (his left eye lid is closed so his vision is fine but he cannot see with the lid detached from the muscle) but the cancer is sestimic so it's a matter of time before his body cannot fight off the malignent cells. For the moment, he is holding his own and trying to adjust to not being as independent as he had been. He is in his late 70's so it was only a matter of time before he had to readjust to his age, but the cancer is not as problematic as much as his limited vision. The radiation also is chaging his eye sight so he will need new glasses soon ... just going day to day, week to week. The scan results will help guide his next course of treatment.

I think we have chosen a college ... we were too sick to go to the accepted student day this past weekend but hoping to go up tomorrow/wednesday and talk to financial aid, view dorm rooms, etc. Once we have some more info, I think he will formally accept. So, while I am 95% sure, I am waiting to annouce so I don't jinx it. 😂😂😂

I am slightly sad my boy will be leaving for college, it's only 3 hours away but it's not a stop by and say hello drive. he will likely have a solo room due to medical necessities so I can at least sleep over on the camping futon! We also got great aid from the school, so that's helpful too.

I'll keep you posted as we get closer to formalizing college plans... right now it's one day at a time. 😉

Hope you had a restful weekend... husg to you my sweet friend! 😘🥰
