    Sending JOY and more JOY and still more JOY!!!!! 

    This picture was taken on my birthday-ish, earlier this month. I am now faithandfifty-SIX!!!!

    So many of you here, were in the whole adventure of the twinzee-babies arrival to the planet, and look at them now! Real, gen-u-ine small people. 

    Sending prayers of support to all who need them. We are a few minutes away from driving in to spend the next couple of days with my parents, our youngest: daughter+husband already there, plus my sister/B

    One more image to bring you cheer and delight. 

    This next photo is my GRAND nephew! He is the first-born of my niece, Kelly. Some of you ol' timer beachies may remember that Kelly fought off thyroid cancer a couple of years ago and we held her up in prayer. 

    Take a look at this!!!

    Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.  We had a good time in OK with DD#2 and the 4 DGD.  Went shopping with the older 3 and spent part of the last day there swimming in the heated pool at the hotel. Got home yesterday and slept all day today.  Tomorrow I get back to sewing.

    Joy and blessings to all.  AJ

    Hi Elisimo - So happy to hear about your fantastic test results!! I am just starting treatment for breast cancer - stage 2 IDC with 4 of 17 nodes involved. My first CAT scan showed small lung nodules in both lungs- all very small - 1 to 3 mm in size. The lymph nodes around the lungs were clear and my bone scan is normal. The doc will wait until I finish my chemo (ACT) and then scan again to check for any change. But of course I am freaking out that this is breast cancer in my lungs. Could you please tell me what your treatment was that gave you such great results?? I would appreciate any advice or guidance as I face this new fear!

    Karen,

    This place is very peaceful and relaxing.  The pictures are amazing and show some great sunsets and sunrises.  The beachettes helped me get through a bad time during my BC treatment.  As with the others, I wish you a sucessful course of treatment.

    Hugs, Cheryl

    Julz, your beach looks so enticing.  I hope there is room for one more.  I will be right there. How about a nice martini to go along with the peaceful beach? You name it and I will bring it.

    Hugs to all, Cheryl
