Birthday Time!

Mid Feb-Mar is a BUSY time in our family with birthdays! We went out to eat for Joel and his sister's birthday. There b-days fall on feb.25 and feb.26. two years difference.We give his parents are hard time about that! Freda is doing well in the sense that her scans from early December show no new areas and her blood levels are not dropping so the oncologist believe this is a sign that the chemo has "washed" the cancer out of her bone marrow. She is still on intensive oral chemo that makes her feel crummy. Then there is the pain of the bone cancer itself. She pretty much stays in pain, but NEVER complains about it. She has even started going back to work on the days she feels well enough to do some light duty things. Her oncologist is confident that with time and treatment, she will be able to return to patrol eventually.


A very rare moment caught on camera!! Makayla socializing with others! Makayla has her very few select people she likes and that's it. She has gotten better lately.

Makayla finally wants to play in the snow now that all has almost melted! Her silly smile! Love her!
