Another early morning for me as usual. Trying to understand my sleep pattern but I am resolving to the fact that I am just a early riser in the summer months. Coffee tastes good this morning and I am very excited about our trip. I have been surfing the net looking at photo's and planning out our 4 days we will be in Honolulu post cruise.
Mom is so excited about the trip. Yesterday she had me helping her try on all of her shoes that I have gotten her for the trip. Cute little sandals and such. I have bought her almost all new clothes since she is losing weight due to her chemo treatments this time she needed a new wardrobe. And she most certainly deserved one. Her hair is coming out now but she and I are staying positive that it will not all come out before our trip. She said "we will just take my wigs in case". What a trooper. She has been through so much and yet at times my old mom is in there somewhere. Most days are sad and it is so pitiful to see her age and become so helpless. Cancer sure is a mean disease. It has taken my mom and turned her into a totally different person. I only want to do what is best for her and give her everything and anything that her heart desires. She sometimes feels sorry for herself and that is understandable. She has been and is going through a lot for someone to handle.
Well, happy days are ahead of her!! Hawaii...7 days on a cruise and 4 wonderful days at a 5 star resort. I want to show her so much and let her take it all in. Something she can enjoy now and make memories that we can hold on to forever!!! I love her so much and at times I just can't express it enough.
Enough sadness for one day. Hopefully you will all have a wonderful day.
Until next time,
Lori
