Back To Chemo

Hello to everyone and belated Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Since my last post I have been on a six week “chemo vacation”, my oncologist supported me in taking this break. On December 20th, I started back on my previous chemo regime which I will continue going forward. My fatigue continues to be my biggest challenge with a few other side effects lingering as well.

I was able to share Christmas with my family ...


and an evening with Tasha’s family as well.


Otherwise the holiday time was “chill” and quiet.

Again I thank everyone for your support and wish you the best for 2019!

💌Dear Tricia,

👴👵We were so excited when we saw today's post on Tricia's Tides📃. The ebb and flow moments of your life🌊 continue to amaze and motivate us🏊. Thanks especially for including a couple of pictures📷 that share highlights of the Festive season for you🎄🎁.

🎭Now, it is hard for us to imagine your return to a previous chemo regime💉, and to hear you speak of it as 'going forward'🚶. We hope your six-week chemo vacation🏡 has in some way prepared you for the challenges and side-effects that are all too familiar to you🏨.

🍷🍷Here's back at you with a wish for all the best in 2019.🔮 The flame on your candle of hope🔥 never fails to remind us of your bright presence in our lives👸. To LIFE!🍻

💕Lots of love,
Louise and David

Happy New Year Tricia, your Mom, Dad, Brandon and those two very handsome boys. You are amazing and have always been so. You were on the move earlier than most babies and by 6 months you were not only crawling but you had taught yourself how to navigate the stairs. You kept your Mom on her toes then because you could get anywhere in the house and fast. You were an amazing little girl and you're an accomplished beautiful woman. You are an inspiration to us all.
Lead on Tricia. I send you my love.

Sorry, Tricia, I'm not a blogger so didn't sign my memory from our early days.
Love you! Joan A.

🙋Hello Tricia,

So, we begin another month in year 2019 - March📅. Can spring be far behind?🌱 A fresh blanket of snow in Peachland🍑 suggests we may have to wait a while yet⛄.

The word 'march'🚶 also makes us think of your huge army of supporters💕 (aka Tricia's Trotters🎈) lighting the night. We are honoured to be among them, sending energy your way🔥 and supporting you every day🎭.

This calls for another toast to LIFE🍷🍷.

💌Lots of love,
Louise and David
