Happy Halloween!!
Once again here we sit at MDAnderson for another holiday celebration. We have been here for Christmas Day, Thanksgiving Day, New Years Day, Fourth of July, Memorial Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, Fathers Day,Lincolns Birthday. ( The reason I know about Lincoln’s birthday is because we got a heart shaped pillow for Valentines and when the man asked Brad what he did he thought it would be funny for the teacher to have the heart pillow made out of Lincoln’s pictures! Seriously, they make fabric like that.) I think we have missed most of the Jewish holidays in Sept/Oct but that is all (sorry Adam and Arielle)! I got a cute little flickering pumpkin in the gift shop on Friday that was 75% off! That is our decoration plus the glow in the dark bracelets that Volunteer Services had in Brad’s trick or treat bag. Those are on his chemo pole that isn’t putting in chemo this time just other assorted iv drugs. His cousin Bobby just walked in with this really scary costume on…oh wait..that was just his normal look. Believe me…he is scary. Looks like he could beat up anyone by just looking at them, but like a teddy bear inside. He loves Brad. It was good to see him. Today the doc said he should be feeling much better in 2 or 3 days. Doesn’t mean he is getting out but we will see. Thanks again for keeping up with Brad and his trials with this awful thing called cancer. If it hasn’t affected anyone in your family or circle of friends be thankful. It is terrible. The worst of all Halloween tricks.
