30 Days

Yesterday was 30 days since the boys took Rob to the emergency room. They went from Preston, Idaho to Logan Regional medical, via helicopter to Mackay Dee and then by ambulance to IMC, Murray Utah. The Biopsy was Oct 17 and the results came back on Oct 19 that he had a high grade glioma brain tumor 4th stage.
Needless to say in those 5 days it was a roller coast of hopes, fears and tears.
We have moved his treatment to Huntsmans Cancer center. Last night Rob took his first chemo pill and today has his first radiation treatment.
We have been showered with family, friends, neighbors, good wishes, food, treats, cards, letter, blogs and love.
Every day is a new adventure. You never know what is going to happen. Some days are bad, some days are good.
But every day is precious and brings new meaning to live and to death.
Is it the worst thing that has ever happened, sometimes. It is the best thing, sometimes.
Am I being carried -- always.
Do I wish it would never had happened, no. Do I wish it would go away, no.
For whatever reason we have this trial before us, I know we have the strength and faith to get us through. And in the end, it is the big picture that matters.
And no matter how long it seems, it is but a blink of an eye.
