Glady's Anniversary

So, I said I would write more about Krusti's trip to Albuquerque. On May 7th, 2013 we got the privilege to celebrate Glady's Anniversary. On this day Gladys has been cancer free for 6 years. Gladys is a survivor of COLON cancer. Immediately following her finding out about the cancer (which was already in advanced stages) she was rushed to Albuquerque where she had surgery, chemo, radiation, and an experimental treatment still in the trial stages. Gladys had wonderful doctors and nurses. She had several scares along the way. One which included being allergic to one of the experimental drugs. To this day, she and every one of her kids and grandkids get choked up just talking about it. Gladys went through some amazing stuff - WHAT A STRONG WOMAN. So, every year on this day, we take some special time to thank the Lord for sending angels to surround her. We thank him for allowing us more time with her. And we thank him for the wonderful care she received and for the strength he gave not only her but her whole family to get through this trial. And we take time on this day each year to CELEBRATE GLADYS. She is a wonderful mother, friend, and grandmother (just to name a few things). You have a special place in my heart....Mama.



So this year to help her celebrate, Amber took her to Albuquerque. They had a great time. I was working but got to show her some love with a few special things that morning before they left. What a special LADY!
