Parenting after 35

In Colorado

So, visiting the family.  It's nice to see everyone, but the next year looks like a rough one.  My sister's husband's cystic fibrosis is starting to really take a toll on him, my brother has prostate cancer which has started to metastasize, one of my nieces is bulimic, and my mother had a lung infection which has her on oxygen for the indeterminate future... oh yeah, and Margaux will probably have her surgery next year.  Ahhh, drama.

All I want for Christmas is health for my family!

  • Yikes!  That's a lot of stuff going on right there.  Positive vibes for everyone on the Peppernut family tree.

    Oh, and hope you enjoy it here in CO!  We're having a brown Christmas.  Unless you're headed to the mountains.

  • Sounds like you have your hands full, but we'll still be here until Monday if you wanna get away.... As BB said, we've only got a Brown Christmas this year, but it should be nice in a different way.....

  • Wow that's a lot going on at once!  I hope the new year brings better health to your family, sounds like they hopefully caught your brother's cancer in time?  Bummer about M needing surgery but I know that wasn't a surprise.

    You need a trip to the mountains to do some snowboarding!  I know people who skiied right up to their 3rd trimester, and I mtn biked all through my 2nd tri (which was the only trimester when I felt half way decent and wasn't hurling hourly).  Hang in there, sending positive vibes that everyone has a decent holiday, feels better and most of all...no family drama this week!
