Christmas Tree Time

It's Christmas Tree Time! At least here at the Polly household...

Dean and Ryan stopped by on Friday to help Mom get a jump start on the festivities. They pulled all the decorations out of the attic





and got the tree up. Now mom can decorate it at her leisure.



Which is a good thing, because she's been laid low by another tiresome round of thrush. She's been feeling pretty "ishy" all week. Most likely from the thrush. We think it's gone down the back of her throat and is messing with her stomach, hence the nausea and yuckies.

The good news is that she was able to continue with her chemo this week and began another round of Gemzar on Thursday.  Even feeling crummy from the thrush, her blood work was all close to normal and that deserves a thumbs up for sure.  The doctors have put her back on Diflucan for 10 more days for the thrush.  Hopefully this time she'll be able to beat it back for good.

In the meantime, the Christmas decorations can wait. After all, we still have Thanksgiving to enjoy! This Thursday, at the Schraceo farm, be here for Turkey and all the trimmings! Dinner served at noon straight up! Naps and football to follow...
