This week was the final week of treatment. "Mom" headed off to the Faulkner hospital with "dad", "Grandma Sue", and "Mike". They headed off ready to call to a close the pre-surgery rounds of chemo. When they got to the hospital they met our "Cousin Nicole" who had smuggled in a few balloons and a cake. Nurse Mary was waiting for them with a big smile, so happy that this was "mom's" last treatment. All the doctors and nurses were amazing, they all stopped by to congratulate "mom" at the end of her 5 month treatment plan. Below are some photo's "dad" took during the treatment.

The treatment went really well and as always "mom" kept her signature smile. The doctors were really happy with the progress of the chemo treatment and were looking forward to the AC kicking a little more tumor butt over the next several weeks.
Looking forward mom will next meet with her surgeons and prepare for surgery in approximately 4 to 6 weeks. For the next few weeks "mom" will let her body recover from the chemo treatment. She is looking forward to a little time off and the Fur Ball fundraiser, which is this weekend. We hear that the music will be bumpin, and "Grandpa Gary" is cooking up an amazing spread. "Auntie Denise" and "Auntie Jen" are working hard on raffles, decor and pulling the entire even together. We wish we could attend, but no DOGS OR CATS allowed :-(. We though it was a Fur Ball, maybe we can participate in the doggy 5K.
Earlier this week "mom" and "dad" visited Western, MA to see our friend Crosby. Below is a picture of our buddy on "mom's" lap. We just love that black lab/ great dane. Thank you "Colleen" for a pre-treatment feast.
This year has been the year of the snow storm and blizzard. Here are a few shots from around our house from the last snow storm and a video of myself and Ginger playing hide and seek. Where are our bushes? Oh yeah under about 10 feet of snow.
