Hi all. Been a few weeks. Bob is doing well and back to work . He goes next week for ct and visit with the radiologist that did the RFA. We are praying for some good news before Christmas. Please keep us in your prayers. Unfortunately, I've now joined the ranks of the unemployed . My position along with 10 others was eliminated 2 weeks ago. I have decided to enjoy the holiday season nonetheless, especially with what we've been through the last two years. I found myself at the Mall yesterday with my daugher (she's on vacation) watching the kids sit on Santa's lap. A luxury for me as I didn't mall shop on weekends when I was employed and I thoroughly enjoyed the decorations and feeling the Christmas Spirit again. I will find another job and choose to use that old cliche' when one door closes...another one opens. I feel blessed that my husband ,my daughter and myself will be able to celebrate this Christmas together. I sincerely hope you all have a Joyous Holiday and always keeping you in my prayers. I wish you MANY BLESSINGS.

Hugs, Diane

    Blessings to you as well!
    I am sorry to hear you have lost your job, but it sounds like you are handling it well. You will indeed be shown another door, in God's time! Enjoy your down time. I have said a prayer for your husband's results!
